The new mosque has been inaugurated on the Temple Mount, despite a court order that the status quo be upheld on the holy site. The Temple Mount is Judaism’s holiest site. This obsession with destroying Judaism is evil. 57 Muslim countries, Mecca, et al is not enough.
A new mosque on the Temple Mount?
“When a structure turns into a mosque, it means that they took over the place,” Regavim Spokesman Avraham Binyamin told the Post.
By Maayan Jaffe-Hoffman, The Jerusalem Post, June 3, 2019 20:42
Jewish activists are claiming that a new mosque has been inaugurated on the Temple Mount, despite a court order that the status quo be upheld on the holy site.According to the far-right Regavim organization, the Jerusalem Wakf Islamic religious trust has initiated a mosque at the Temple Mount’s Gate of Mercy. The organization petitioned the High Court of Justice on the eve of Jerusalem Day for a temporary injunction that would close the structure and restore the status quo at the site.
Story continues below advertisementThe organization noted the installation of ceiling fans, lighting, furniture and room dividers inside a 1,400-year-old structure located at the site. These permanent changes, according to Regavim, have harmed the ancient structure and were done without any oversight from the Israel Antiquities Authority, as required by law.
Shlomo Vile, who went up to pray on the Temple Mount on Jerusalem Day, confirmed Regavim’s description. He told The Jerusalem Post that from what he saw, it is “clear there is activity by the Gate of Mercy. Muslims were milling around and there were prayer rugs scattered about.”
A Wakf official told the Post that the site was reopened during Ramadan as hundreds of thousands of worshippers converged on the al-Aqsa compound for Friday prayers. He said that in accordance with understandings reached between Israel and the Jordanian-controlled Wakf authorities, the site will be closed again in the near future for “renovations.”
But Regavim is arguing this cannot be trusted. In 1967, there was one mosque on the Temple Mount. Today, counting the new one, there are five.
“When a structure turns into a mosque, it means that they took over the place,” Regavim Spokesman Avraham Binyamin told the Post. “Once they use it for prayer, then no one else can use it – not Jews, not Christians.”
This week’s petition is not Regavim’s first one to the High Court against Muslim use of the site. In March, the organization submitted a similar petition. Justice Meni Mazuz accepted the petition and allowed the government and the Wakf 90 days to respond, which the organization said allowed the Wakf time to transform the compound. Though Regavim requested the time for response be reduced, the court would not approve the request.
Soon before, the defense establishment identified radical Islamist activity at the site, and the government requested a court order to shut down the site, which was issued by the Jerusalem Magistrates Court. The Wakf ignored the court order and continued its construction project.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared at the end of February that “Israel has not given its consent to opening the mosque on the Temple Mount.” A statement released by the Prime Minister’s Office at the time declared that Netanyahu had given instructions “to enforce the court order without compromise and to ensure that the site remains closed.”
However, no overt action was taken.
Until now, the Gate of Mercy had been closed by a court order since 2003, when the court determined that radical Muslim activity was taking place in the area. Before that, the structure had been used as a storage room.
EARLIER THIS YEAR, a series of riots erupted on the Temple Mount and thousands of Palestinians stormed the gate, which led to the arrest of two senior Wakf officials, including a prominent sheikh. In response, Muslims took over the ancient structure and began the process of turning it into a mosque, threatening increased violence if Israel shut it down.
Jews believe the site – venerated as holy in Judaism, Christianity and Islam alike – is where the First and Second Temples used to stand.
At the time of the Muslim takeover, a group of Israeli activists countered their claim by calling on the government to establish a synagogue on the Temple Mount and open it for Jewish prayer, instead.

I agree the logic is strong
– the Israelites chose that site for their Temple
– and kept it there for centuries
– Jews are now in control of Israel
– therefore Jews can build the new Temple on that site
– and if necessary the “Dome of the Rock” Mosque
– can be moved brick by brick to a new location
– whether the Islamists like it or not

Muslims are no sweat for the Judeo Christian God.
He could care less if there are 100 billion Muslims.
Their defeat will happen as well as righting other wrongs.
Why is He allowing this? Are any of us perfect?
Have people turned their back on Him?
Have people embraced ungodly values and replaced His teachings with sinner friendly values and teachings?
When the time is right for Him, He will step in and bring it to a head, as He has done in the past.
God is always in control, Marc. He has His reasons for letting it continue for now.
Always keep in mind that none of us are independently righteous — not one!
Romans 3:10
As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Things we do can count towards it…

And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.

Here’s another tragedy in the making that many cheer on!
‘Transgender’ student crowned prom ‘king’ at Massachusetts high school
Fri May 31, 2019 – 4:05 pm EST
In 8th grade she decided she should be a male. She has had the surgery and life long hormone treatments have started and she is now cheered on as a male. She is just graduating from HIGH SCHOOL!
HYANNIS, Massachusetts, May 31, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – A female student who has “transitioned” to identifying as a male has been crowned prom king at a Massachusetts High School in a vote made possible because teachers deemed her eligible.
Nicole “Nicholas” Bulman is a 19-year-old senior at Barnstable High School who began identifying as transgendered starting in eighth grade, the Cape Cod Times reported. She legally changed her name and, after what she calls years of consultation with a primary care doctor, endocrinologists, psychologists, therapists, and a support group, has undergone testosterone treatments and gender-transition surgery.
Her school community has reportedly been so overwhelmingly supportive that Barnstable teachers named him as one of five candidates eligible for this year’s prom king, according to teacher and Class of 2019 adviser Lyn Vazquez.d “He’s just an all-around great person,” she said. “Teachers at Barnstable High School felt Nick was a great candidate.”
Bulman ultimately won, the Times reported in a follow-up, attending prom last week in a beard and full tuxedo, alongside friend and prom queen Kalyani Clarke.
“It just feels like a weight’s off my shoulders, like I can be more free and open with all those around me and I’m happy with myself,” Bulman told CBS Boston. Her mother, Jaime Gallagher, said she “love(s) the fact that Barnstable High School validated and acknowledged Nick in that way.”
Bulman, who plans to study psychology at Bridgewater State University, told the Times last week she was “now putting myself on the road toward being comfortable in my own skin.” Other young people to attempt similar transitions have experienced very different outcomes.
The University of Cambridge’s Stonewall report found that 96 percent of trans students in Scotland attempted self-harm through actions such as cutting themselves, and 40 percent attempted suicide. Forty percent in the United States have attempted suicide, as well, according to a 2016 survey from the National Center for Transgender Equality (NCTE). According to a 2011 study out of Sweden, trans people remain 19 times more likely to commit suicide than the general population, even after sex-reassignment surgery.
While studies have found a “honeymoon period” of “reported relief and happiness” after sex reassignment treatment,. it doesn’t last. Dr. Michelle Cretella, president of the American College of Pediatricians, warned that “Ten years beyond transition, however, rates of additional mental illness begin to rise precipitously, to the point that 30 years following surgical transition (mutilation), the suicide rate is 19 times greater than that of the general population,” she said

Yes, more social chaos
– tyrants always like social chaos
– it makes a population easier to control
– communists believe that ALL human behavior
– can be molded by communist control
– and even other species can be forced to ‘behave’
– [Stalin thought he could force grain seeds to grow in snow]
– [see ‘Lysenkoism’]
– and wrecking our understanding of gender
– can really damage society
– so communists eagerly do that

This is part of the fraud being perpetrated on Israel and the world. These so-called buildings of prayer are part and parcel of the Islamic world’s continuing efforts to cause the downfall of the state of Israel. They will use any action taken by Israeli authorities to end this unlawful conduct to support their false claims that they are being discriminated against and their claim that any conduct by Israel to protect its sovereignty over its capitol is further justification for those out there who promote the BDS garbage. Israel needs to take charge of its territory and the building of Mosques for people who are sworn by their satanic religious beliefs to destroy the people and state of Israel should not be allowed. No other nation, under these same conditions, would countenance this conduct. Why should Israel. The Arab plans will never change from their expectation of destruction, and Israel needs to face that and push back hard against these lunatics now, before it is too late. They have been left with no choice.

Islam is not a religion unless you accept that worshipping the the Devil is a religion. It is a criminal organization, a cult ,a mafia that has terrorized the world for 1450 yeas and counting. This Mosque,like all the others,is simply a mafia hangout where they learn to carry out jihad crimes against anywho stand in their ways. Time to stop the masquerading as a relionnan treat them as organized crime.Th Al-Aqsa Mosque needs to be closed and turned into Jewish and Christian places of worship.

When I toured this area last year I was shocked
A cameraman with our group wearing Bermuda shorts had to be clothed in a skirt
As well as a woman wearing Capri pants
Only one of our group a Muslim reporter from Australia could enter the Islamic dome
Mosque that controls the area no Jews or Christians or atheists allowed
A huge foot bath for islamics was at the foot of the steps
Israeli soldiers guided us and also served to protect us
I kept my Star of David on under my clothes and figuratively spit on every
Islamic location
Basically it was no longer a site for either Christians or Jews
It was heartbreaking to be there
Even as I walked through streets of the old city the maddness of the
Calls to prayer pounded my ear drums
What an insane place
The Jews have been too kind
Every brick should be taken down and reassembled on the banks of Gaza close enough to the sea to be covered in the next decade
The Israelis are far too humane to these evil insects
The best analogy I can give is one I realized while doing weed control
On my daughters lawn, (lawn care guys in Canada refuse to use weed killers)
As I sprayed the toxins to kill them all I noticed how even the dandelions sprayed the
Week before although several in a stalk died there was one or two that resisted
And hence propagated and spread…..like Islam and the hateful evil followers
Like these infectious weeds could look pretty in all their glorious yellow colour
But eventually completely take over the entire lawn
Here in Canada we have so many it is already changing our society
When in Israel I was astounded at the compassion of the Jews toward infestation.
