Mosque Wall Collapse on the Temple Mount
00:51 Sep 24, '03 / 27 Elul 5763


(IsraelNN.com) The southern wall of the Islamic Museum on the Temple Mount has collapsed -- the result of pouring too much concrete on the roof of the structure years ago, leading to the collapse due to the excess weight.

Can I hear an OMEIN!?!

Temple Mount Wall Collapses
12:23 Sep 25, '03 / 28 Elul 5763


One side of a wall in the Temple Mount compound - completely visible to worshippers at the Western Wall - collapsed on Tuesday, uncovering an area of some 40 square meters of dirt and fill. The wall belongs to the Islamic Museum on the Temple Mount, a building to the right and above the worshipers at the Western Wall, identified by a small gray dome.

Archaeologist Dr. Eilat Mazar, a member of the Committee to Prevent the Destruction of Temple Mount Antiquities, said that the collapse is connected with the illegal construction works being carried out on the Temple Mount by the Moslem Waqf. Speaking with Yisrael Medad on Arutz-7's "Freedom of Broadcast" program, Dr. Mazar said that these works have been ongoing for many years without supervision by either the Planning and Construction authorities or the Antiquities Authority.

"No one is concerned about preserving the ancient compound," she said, "nor has anyone mapped, surveyed or buttressed the hollow areas under the Temple Mount and under the mosques... It is frightening to think of this collapse, and of what could happen in the future when many tens of thousands of people visit the Temple Mount, and tractors and trucks - and all of this atop hollow areas that have never been professionally checked. This collapse should be a warning bell. If a catastrophe occurs, the whole world will blame Israel."

She said that opening the compound to Jewish visitors is "just the beginning; pressure must be exerted in order that the supervisory authorities do what they are supposed to. The press must get involved in this cause."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

How can the press tell G-d what to do or fathom what falls next?

And I STILL say....OMEIN!!!

Take your pill Cat! You do know sarcasm when you hear it dont you?

I've been following this a little. A few items, I apologize for lack of original sourcing:

The muslims have been for the last couple of years excavating under Al-aqsa to create a larger prayer hall.

The Jews have compalined, saying that it's destroying valuable archeological artiifacts, They also claim that it may be an attempt to erase as much as possible, evidence that links the Mount to the Jews.

(In Palestinian schools and mosques, Arab kids are taught that there is no historical connection between the Jews and the Land of Israel, that it is a fiction invented by imperialist westerners and zionists)

Subsequent to this excavation and construction, the South Wall (not the Western, "Wailing" wall) was found to be bulging outward.

A dispute arose about whether it was in fact bulging, at last the Waqf admitted wahat everyone else saw and with the help of the Jordanians started to "repair" the bulge. Then they compalined that the Israelis were hindering access to the southern wall.

Now thewre is word that this interior wall of Al Aqsa has collapsed.

The South Wall is where the "hulda staircase" once was, (remnants still there). This is where Jesus often went up to enter the Temple precincts.

I am pretty sure (s)he was sarcastic.

Temple mount issue.

[richardtavor]

I heard from a Democratic aquaintence that he saw George W. Bush at the base of the wall minutes before the collapse!

Israel warned the Pali's to stop digging under the Temple Mount in Solomon's stables, in their hurried attempt to remove any trace of Jewish historical claims to the site, lest they weaken and collapse the structures above.

They didn't listen, so now instead of taking responsibility for what they themselves have caused, they lie like they always do.

Like termites, they have destroyed what they falsely claim is their third holiest site. Many Christian believers have thought it would come down in a mighty earthquake, or some other awesome act of God, not taking into account God's wry sense of humor.

I find it very amusing. I have spent many a night on the computer staring at that ugly toad of a dome, squatting where it ought not, and praying for it to be removed. It tickles me pink to think the whole top of the place could go at any minute, and in my life time to boot, the icing on the cake, the cherry on the sundae, is the Pali's have no one to blame but themselves.

You Know who is responsible for Astroturf!?!??!?!?

The Jews!

Here is a supernatural tidbit, for those interested.

There have been close to a total of 700 U.N. resolutions since Israel became an official nation in 1948. With over 160 representable nations, what percentage of that 700 do you think were against Israel.

5% = 35 resolutions
10% = 70 resolutions
20% = 140 resolutions
50% = 350 resolutions
60% = 420 resolutions

Since 1948 there have been 450 U.N. resolutions dealing with Israel, which would be over 60% of all of the U.N. drafted resolutions.

With all of our science, and agricultural mastery, and the ability to desalinate Ocean water, where is the peace that should come about because of the evolution of man? Disregarding the Creator's battle with the Prince of this world can be unhealthy, for Jerusalem is a Cup of Trembling, that nations stumble over.

God's Chosen people are hated by those who follow the Prince of this world.

Perhaps an omen, but does not yet seem to be a significant factor in building the Jewish Temple.

The Dome of The Rock, I don't believe, is affected by the collapse at the southern wall, just a museum.

Some argue the Dome of the Rock occupies the space and prevents the rebuilding of the Jewish Temple. I've seen plans that support that, as well as plans and scriptural arguement that the Temple can built along side the Dome of the Rock (though I find it hard to believe that co-existance would be tolerated by the 'World').

The FLOWBEE Vacuum Haircutting System allows you to create the most popular hair cut styles. FLOWBEE can cut your hair from 1/2" to 6" long in recommended 1/4" increments. Simply select the desired spacer depending on how much hair you want to cut. Then attach the spacer to your Flowbee. Haircut styles of your choice are easy and clean.

I'd say he goes with the shortest setting.

I'm trying to get across the point people blame every evil under the sun on Jews and that's not true.

Well, actually, the Jews are having to split the blame with the Methodist Bush these days.

[Havoc]

They have been working in the sublevel under the mosque for years. They've been warned that they could/would destablize the structure and they ignored the warnings. If it collapses completely, it will be their fault and no one elses.

You know what must happen next -

REBUILD THE TEMPLE!

White robes on Yom Kippur

From To Be A Jew, by Rabbi Hayim Halevy Donin, pages 247-249 -

"The Torah specifies that the fast is to begin on the ninth day, so that fasting on Yom Kippur actually begins before sundown while it is still light. It does not conclude till the evening of the next day. By 'the evening' is not means sundown, but rather nightfall when the stars appear, which is somewhat later. How much later depends on the geographical latitude." "The Biblical commandment to 'afflict your souls' is observed by a complete and total fast, by abstaining from all eating and drinking for the entire period (approximately twenty-five hours)."
"The wearing of white on Yom Kippur - white clothes, white robe (kitel), white skullcap - is a time-honored custom intended to recall the white robes (takhrikhim) in which the dead are buried, and thus to mellow the heart of the worshipper. White also represents purity and symbolizes the Prophetic promise: 'Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow' (Isaiah 1:18)."
