I am going to have to go back into Moshe Dayan's memoirs, and scan through the primary and secondary sources, in order to understand just what the man was thinking when, after the 6 Day War, he handed the Temple Mount to Jordan.
To Jordan!
Israel begged Jordan to stay out of the war, but they didn't because the Egyptians were claiming victory. So, after Israel cleaned everybody's clock and regained control of Israel's holiest site after 2,000 years, Moshe Dayan hands it back to the Arabs?
It is just unfathomable. And now we have Arabs telling us that we are not allowed to pray on the holiest site within the religion of Judaism?
It's shameful, in fact.
And, in the mean time, the Waqf - whatever the hell that is, exactly - has spent the last 45 years destroying evidence of the Jewish presence on that spot in order to destroy Jewish history, itself.
