MUSLIMS MOUNT FORCES AGAINST JEWS AT TEMPLE MOUNT
J. Grant Swank, Jr.
It’s the site where Abraham was willing to sacrifice his only son, Isaac: Mount Moriah.
That’s where the Muslims have constructed their mosque, the Dome of the Rock. It therefore is a site religiously significant to three religions: Jews, Christians and Muslims.
It is important to Muslims because they say that their Prophet Mohammed left Earth atop a white horse from that rock. Tour guides attempt to show visitors the impress in the rock left by the Prophet’s foot when mounting his horse. I was in Jerusalem, there in the Dome of the Rock, and for the life of me could not see a footprint; however, that’s what the tour guide told us.
This place is rife with anxiety. It is in the Holy City to which the coming Christ will rule during the millennial reign. It is the metropolis that calls for daily attention from the world, regardless of religious affiliation or no affiliation. It is the city that houses faith and faithlessness, reality and illusion.
This Sunday Muslims fear that devout Jews and politically propelled Jews will storm the Temple Mount.
Therefore, Muslims are gearing up for a fight — major. They say they cannot take any chances. Therefore, they are increasing their forces in order to show Jews that the latter have no chance of anything regarding the Temple Mount.
According to Arutz 7 News, the Hamas and Islamic Jihad are organizing Muslims to "keep Jews off the Mount."
It’s a geography that belongs to the Muslims, they say, though for centuries it has belonged to Jews, dating back to father-of-the-faithful Hebrews, Abraham.
Therefore, logic would state that the Temple Mount is Jews’ property first and foremost. However, with the Arab contentions militarily placed, it appears for the moment that the Jewish presence is lessened considerably while the Muslim might weighs in.
According to IsraelINN.com: "Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists are calling on Muslims to make their way to Jerusalem’s Temple Mount on Sunday to keep the Jews out; fearing thousands of Jews will adhere to calls to come to the Mount for a prayer service.
"Police and other security agencies will be out in force to keep the Jews off the Temple Mount and to prevent clashes between Jews and Muslims."
