We as Jews do not wish to do this. It is holy to us as much as it is for the Muslims. We as Jews believe that this is the place where Abraham tried to sacrifice Isaac. So what purpose would it surve for the Jews to destory it?

I meant Dome of the Rock
2007-02-21 09:00:05 · update #1
Peachy the Dome of the Rock is actually located on the Temple Mount or as we know it from the Biblical sources as Mount Moriah. Hence, it has significance to the Jews

Furthermore, the Dome of the Rock is also a place where Jacob dreamt about angels ascending and descending a ladder while sleeping on a stone. The Talmud says that this took place on the Temple Mount, and Jewish tradition has it that the rock in the Dome of the Rock was the one on which he slept.
Our greatest Sage Rashi ( who lived in1040's) also provides historical account to a place where Jacob and Rebbeca prayed, asking God to grant them children

Serves as propaganda for the Arabs to further instill the hatred of the Jews

Some scientists believe that the rock of the dome is the place where Soloman's Temple was (before it was destroyed by the Romans). Many believe that the Jews want to replace the Dome with the newly built Temple.
Thats why
Wait!!!!!!!Abraham tried to sacrafice Isaac on a mountain!!!! The rock of the dome is on flat land!!!!!!

Most ppl don't know that... I didn't know that. So, people who are looking at world affairs see that the Muslims have a place they call holy, and the Jews do not have that place. In their minds, the Jews will obviously want to go tear apart anything that the Muslims hold sacred.

Lol.
Dont you mean Dome of the Rock.. not Rock of the Dome.
Messianic Jews believe the destruction of the mosque and construction of the temple would expedite the appearance of a Jewish messiah, or redeemer, who would rule the world from Jerusalem and bring about the salvation of the Jewish people....

GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!!! :-)
You are being so gracious just as Israel has been over EVERY-THING that you have endured at the hands of the PLO, et al....
Sometimes I just absolutely MARVEL at how very GRACIOUS
the nation and people of Israel, Abraham's covenant descend-ants are inspite of everything, but I know that Israel as a gov't is NOT going to coddle or play games with terrorists!!!
GOD BLESS YOU FOR THAT!!!! :-)
Yes, Mt. Moriah is the site of where Abraham offered up Isaac, NOT ishmael -- and it IS the site of Solomon's Temple.
As a Christian, this is also a very special site for me as well and I want so very much to see God's TRUE temple back where it be-longs!!!
PLEASE do not be deceived when someone comes along and makes a seven year peace pact with Israel and rebuilds it only to
desecrate it when he goes in there and proclaims that he is god when he is IS NOT.
This WILL be the man of sin spoken of in Daniel.
Quite honestly though, in answer to your final question - Do you think that God is PLEASED by having this abomination sitting on
His Holy mountain where HIS TRUE TEMPLE SHOULD BE!!!
There is a movie called the OMEGA CODE put out by Trinity Broadcasting and in it, the Dome of the Rock is totally blown to smitherines.
The islamo-fascist terrorists put NO value on human life in the name of their so-called "peaceful" religion, but they go on a murd-erous rampage over a stupid political cartoon, which actually de-picts the TRUTH about radical Islamic TERRORISTS..... and since they put their politics and religion over the lives of INNOCENT people, something has to get their attention -- as our
President Reagan did with the Soviets -- carrot and stick app-roach, If they only pay attention to the STICK -- so be it!!!
They can NOT be allowed to run rampant in this world with their hatred and violence and tyranny -- any more than Hitler was all-owed to prevail.
READ Ezekiel 35. God will deal with the enemies of Israel for sure!! :-)
WE LOVE YOU!!! :-)
BLESSED BE THE LORD GOD OF ISRAEL FROM EVER-LASTING TO EVERLASTING. Ps.106:48.
NO WEAPON THAT IS FORMED AGAINST YOU SHALL PROSPER AND EVERY TONGUE THAT RISES AGAINST YOU IN JUDGMENT, YOU SHALL CONDEMN. THIS IS THE HERI-TAGE OF THE SERPENTS OF THE LORD AND THEIR RIGHT-EOUSNESS IS OF ME, SAITH THE LORD. -- Isaiah 54:17.
ALSO - READ PS. 91.

when they go around "not only this time by the way but also previously" having constructions and drilling the land around it affecting the costruaction of the mosque,and the whole existance of it,then naturally givin the troubled invironment in Jeurusalim muslims think that it's not done with good intentions.
if this sacred place for muslims is washed away then they wouldn't have the right to claim this land anymore.it's all about the land

It has to be something that some extremist is making up to justify and continue the ongoing feuds between the Jews and Muslims.
