FULL TITLE: Jerusalem's revered Al-Asqa Mosque was struck by blaze that broke out the same time Notre Dame was devastated by inferno

A fire broke out on the compound of Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem on Monday, just as a huge blaze ripped through the Notre Dame cathedral 2000 miles away in Paris.

Smoke and fire was seen billowing from the roof of the Marwani Prayer Hall - also known as Solomon's Stables, located at the bottom of stairs which lead down from the revered Al-Aqsa Mosque.

'The fire broke out in the guard's room outside the roof of the Marwani Prayer Room, and the fire brigade of the Islamic Waqf handled the matter successfully,' the Palestine News Agency said on Monday.

My first thought was "Who cares?"

then I thought "they were probably doing the voodoo spell to burn Notre Dame when it backfired (no pun intended) and they caught fire too.

Not revered by me or any sane Christian. May Jesus Christ destroy the false god of Mohammed, and every mosque, with the breath of His mouth.

Conspiracy theory # 345: Set a no damage fire themselves to cover for burning down Notre Dame. Us? No way we were set on fire too.

The fire broke out in the guard's room

Building IEDs?

It was a very small fire in a guard’s booth, not in the mosque. The Waqf said it was started by children playing with fire. There is no change to the mosque’s schedule.

Hmm. Makes one wonder if someone wants to start a war right now.

I wonder if anyone with arson tools tried to breach security at the Vatican recently.

On second thought, considering the negative to low esteem in which the Pope is held, maybe the arsonist thought Notre Dame was a more important symbol to Christianity than the Vatican.

According to Israeli papers there was an reenactment of Passover going on outside the Mosque yesterday. It *could* have been a zealous believer who hoped to destroy the Mosque to fulfill prophecy. In 1948 Israel signed an agreement to keep the status quo on the Mosque and in recent years there has been increasing breaches of that with Jewish orthodox attempting to pray in the Mosque or do other religious practices.

Some people have a bad wahhabit of destroying historical religious structures.

The guard booth is a popular place for children playing with matches?

Doesn't pass the smell test.

"children" = Islamist regardless of age.

I knew about this beforehand. The coded message came via blinking modem lights.

“The murderers report that Banquo is “safe”—safely dead in the ditch with many gashes.”

When we were there in 2016 the security was minimal.

Have you smelled those people? Mohamed has napalm grade level farts. Just comes out like a flame thrower. Clear a whole jungle I tell ya.
