read the whole thing, I'm inclined to believe it. Throughout India some 3,000 temples received the same treatment. It's just possible that the 'Taj Mahal' shares the same sorry history as the Temple Mount.
It may be be true, but
it kind of has the same sound
as the folks who say
Catholic tradtions
are really the worship of
Ishtar or something . . .
Recent erosions and cosntruction by Muslims in the area have placed the Western Wall in danger of collapse. This is probably why Israel is doing the excavation.
that's why I posted the link, you can read it and make up your own mind if you believe it or not.
I do.
It is my understanding that it is, in fact, the Arabs' digging under the Temple Mount that is undermining the entire site. The fact that the Muslims are making these accusations is telling.
This is just preliminary dissembling to establish culpability for that time when the entire edifice collapses.
Daniel 12
11 "From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 years.
1290 years from 30 C.E. (Crucifixion Resurrection) 1320 the WAKF was set up.

The Content of Abu Madein Al-Ghouth’s Legacy
It is noteworthy to register the contents of a document by the great learned scholar, Abu Madein Shu’eib Ben Al-Mujahed Abu Abdallah Moh’d Ben Al-Sheikh Al-Imam, the Blessing of the Muslims, and the rest of the ancestors, Abu Madein Shu’eib Al-Maghraby Al-Ottomany Al-Maleky, who was buried in Telmesan. This document, written on 29 Ramadan 720 H (2 November 1320 CE) during the life of the grandson, indicated that he had dedicated two places, which he had been running by himself. The first place was the village of Ein Karem and consisted of plains and rough terrain, houses for its people, orchards of pomegranate, olives, figs and oak trees, water wells, and old Roman vineyards. The document showed the borders of the village from the four directions: Al-Malha Al-Kubra south, Ein Qaroun, Qalounia, Harash, Sataf and Zawyet Al-Bukhtyari north, Ein Al-Sheqaq west, and Al-Malha Al-Kubra and Beit Marmeil east.
The second place is located in Jerusalem itself known as Qantara Asabat Um Al-Banat at Bab Al-Selsela, including a large building (Ewan), a large house, a yard, a facility and an underground store and a cellar. Although the document had showed the limits in great detail of the one in Ein Karem, it did not do the same for this one; however, it did show its four limits, especially the eastern side which ends at Al-Buraq. The document added that this legacy will remain through the ages and it has been confirmed throughout its history. The document added that both Ein Karem and the Ewan have been dedicated to the Moors in Jerusalem or those visiting the city regardless of their color, trade, sex, age or status, and nobody could fight the Moors over this Waqf, which they could make use of it in different ways, such as rental, agriculture or sharing, and the priority will be for the newcomers then the indebted and so on. *The document stated that the revenue of these estates should be given to the Moors in Mecca and Medina, but if there is nobody to take it, the revenues should be sent to the two Holy Shrines. Concerning the estate attendant, he should be elected by the Moors in the cities themselves after the death of Abu Al-Ghouth, and this attendant has to be an honest and pious Muslim who takes care of the estates and invests them properly.
As mentioned above, the Moors were volunteers in Nour Al-Deen Zenky’s forces, then Saladin allowed them to stay in Palestine to defend it in an emergency. The document also showed the use of this estate (Al-mahbas) in Jerusalem; it was prepared to be used by male homeless persons or passers-by. Concerning Ein Karem, the document stated that the village should not be rented for more than two years, and the contracts should be ended and renewed on the same day so it will not be attacked or abused.
The attendant of these estates was extremely concerned with the surplus of the revenue, so he spent most of it on recreational activities on the Moors, either residents or passers-by, especially during the three months of Rajab, Sha’aban and Ramadan, as well as the two eids (feasts) and on the Prophet’s Birthday. He also appropriated some of the revenue to purchase clothes for the needy Moors, especially in the winter, and to undertake the dead. At the end of the document, there was a severe warning that Allah will punish severely those who would attack or change the dedication of the property because a good believer would not violate this legacy. The date of the document was mentioned in detail: it was signed on 29 Ramadan 720 H.

Now I get the abomination that causes desolation.
