Except

The Islamic al-Awqaf department in Jerusalem have accused the Israeli authorities of being behind the collapse of an internal wall in al-Aqsa mosque yesterday after it had prevented its engineers form maintaining it.

The collapsed wall is situated near the Islamic museum on a hill in old Jerusalem where the mosque is situated. This wall is considered new in comparison to other parts of the mosque.

The director of the Islamic Awqaf in Jerusalem Adnan al-Husseini said that the wall collapsed as a result of "the Israeli intervention in our work and preventing us from maintaining it after we stated it was in an urgent need for a rapid action to prevent its collapse."

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

With some of the slower thinkers in the forum...it is easier to use the term:

The Jooos did it!

To indicate the statement is being made in jest...

Or, just use the CLEAR indicator: < /sarcasm>

Semper Fi

....birthday of the world.... That caught my eye because my Jewish mother in law called her Rabbi to see how they came up with the age of the world....5000 plus years. He said that it was an arbitrary number that was agreed on at the starting date of 5000. Is this true?

I read somewhere that he has a daily appointment at a barber's shop where he gets the growth trimmed back to a 3 day supply. (Guard number 2, I would guess)

the Arab press says it was the Al-Asqa Mosque wall.

The Arab press wouldn't exaggerate. Would they jump on such exiguous info?

This is just the beginning, the rains are coming, what is going to happen to that uncovered dirt when it gets saturated with rain? See the second dome behind that dome? That is the Al Asque mosque, THE HOLY PLACE. The Gold dome is not a Mosque, it is a Shrine. It is the silver dome mosque that will start a war.

And the Jews have not been allowed up there for two years. Pretty hard to blame it all on the Jews now...

However this is just a preview folks, the real exciting news is the bulge on the southern wall. It is rocks that have been a retaining wall and have been stable for 4000 years. The PLO decided to dig out the Solomon stables with a Bulldozer, not a backhoe. ( Mentality of a box of rocks I tell you ). A back hoe digs, but a bulldozer pushes. You NEVER dig with a bulldozer behind a retaining wall.

To make it even more unstable they tore out all the ancient drainage and "Paved Paradise". No drains, the water from last years rains ran over to where it could seep in next to the wall. The fill dirt became saturated and with no drainage the mud became a plastic fluid mass. Along comes Tonka Archeologist with his D9 and pushes against the mud to carve out a slice. The mud instead of providing a force to push dirt up against transmits all that force sideways against the retaining wall because mud is not solid, it is fluid. The rocks slid out.

The way they build the temple mount platform was to build a huge retaining wall all around the mountain, built in cisterns, basements and fill dirted it. Then they built the platform on top. When the southern wall bulged out, dirt was obviously displaced behind it causing the platform to drop a tiny bit.

The Dome of the Rock and the Al Asque mosque, both domed structures were built on that platform by the ancient method of construction used a lot around the city. Now this is going to gettcha.

They build two stacked stone walls and fill the hollow with mud and stones. When the mud hardens it becomes a very strong structure that is based on the strength of the stacked stone walls. Those are then covered with mud till the walls are smooth and then plastered over on the inside. Makes for 4 foot thick walls and NO CONCRETE as it was not invented yet. Great building method when it has a solid foundation. But if the foundation shifts it is a disaster, as the stacked wall inside becomes "unstacked" and the entire structure becomes very unstable.

You cannot "restack" the rocks without dismantling the structure! It is pretty much impossible to fix. And the Dome of the rock reacted to the shift in the southern wall by cracking.

Now a dome is a very interesting structure. It is like an eggshell. When intact, you can not crush an egg in your hands without focusing your pressure in a tiny spot, but squeezed in your palms like gravity it just will not break.

But try it again with even the tiniest of cracks. Instant face omelet. Yep, the Dome of the rock is completely covered with scaffolding as they are trying to figure out how to patch it. The southern wall has scaffolding up its face as they were trying to figure out how to push the 40 ton rocks back in place.

I actually watched the idiots trying to hammer rocks the size of cars back in place with sledge hammers. Unless they dig the dirt that has shifted up against those rocks out to make room those rocks ain’t a gonna move with dynamite. But if they dig the dirt out to enable shifting the rocks back in place they will collapse the dome.

And the rain is coming...

BWAHAHAHAhahahaha!

The Jews do not have to destroy the dome, they just had to get out of the way so the Palestinians would do it for them.

This is a quote from a World Net Daily article about this dummy dilemma:

Newsweek has called the southern wall "The Armageddon wall," because the old rocks help support an enormous stone platform that holds the Al Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock, among Islam's most sacred shrines. Should it collapse, some archeologists fear a doomsday effect – dead worshippers, perhaps in the thousands, riots throughout the Middle East and charges that Israel is responsible.

One reason that Jews are internationally hated is because they have clearly been blessed by God.

Take the fact that 25% of Nobel Prizes are earned (Awarded) by Jews, who are less than 1/5 of 1% of the worlds population.

Also consider how many top professions are overrepresented by Jewish people.
Doctors
Scientists
Media Moguls
Lawyers
Real Estate
Bankers.

Like the Jews, America has been blessed inordinately by our alignment with the One true God.

Would you maybe have a link to a diagram that shows the relative positions of the Dome of the Rock, the Al Asque mosque, and the wall collapse & wall bulge?

I'm having difficulty picturing it.

Isaiah 30:13 this sin will become for you
like a high wall, cracked and bulging,
that collapses suddenly, in an instant.

if you are looking at the picture of the failed wall you are looking east at the corner of the cube. The Al Asque is on the south west corner of the mount. The bulges are all around the mount now, there are bulges on the east side too I think from all the scafolding going up.

The reason the south west corners are bulging so bad to the point of near colapse is the Pali's were trying to dig a huge basement out next to the al asque mosque by hollowing out Solomons stables that the mosque was almost built on top of. They may have carved it all out, but by doing it with a dozer they pushed out the south and western corners will merrily digging away.

Now the retaining walls of the plaza have given away and they have shifted the foundation of the mosque and the shrine.

If we have a decent rain, this year before they figure out how to fix it with the same bozos who broke it all in the first place, the sky line of Jerusalem may just change.

One small earthquake now and it is all toast, and it is darn hard to blame Jews for earthquakes. The omen of the "Hand of God" in an earthquake wiping out the Al Asque mosque at this politicaly charged moment of time will deal Islam a blow that it may not be able to recover from.

Do it God, just a little one... pleeeeeeeze?

Great timing for the rainy season! Earthquakes or floods, no matter...it'll be the Jews' fault somehow. Didn't they invent a way to trigger quakes? (Actually, I think they did.) And floods, those will be caused by Zionist sewers, which were designed to divert water and sewage into the Pali neighborhoods.

View from other side looking west

To the left of this picture is where the western wall collapsed.

And a parting shot from on the temple mount at the backside of the dome of the rock. Nice to see the Moslems take such good care of what they call Holy Ground.

How does this guy maintain a constant three day growth? Never a beard, never clean shaven.

Outside of feminizing hormone treatments, I cannot see how he arrests beard growth.


That's really not his FACE.
