Islam = Covenant through Ishmael.
Every holy place has been given to the Muslims..... Mt Ararat/Turkey, Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia etc.
1-----After Abraham had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, Abram's wife Sarai took Hagar the Egyptian [princess], her maid, and gave her to her husband Abram as HIS WIFE. -- GENESIS 16:3
2------So Hagar bore Abram a son; and Abram called the name of HIS SON, whom Hagar bore, ISHMAEL. - GENESIS 16:15

Muslims were sharing the Holy land for the past 1300 years.
However, nobody will be allowed to destroy any Islamic Religious site.
If anyone plans that then there will be no peace.

God DID covenant with Ishmael, giving him EARTHLY kingdoms. There was NOTHING in it about Salvation. The Holy Land was promised to the children of Abraham. I believe that INCLUDES the Jews. Especially since Abraham almost sacrificed Isaac on Mt Moriah, which became Jerusalem.
Why can't you BROTHERS share???????
[Edit] The Mosque of Omar was deliberately built on the Temple Mount out of spite. It has no business being labelled a 'holy site'. It IS the "Abomination of Desolation" spoken of in Daniel.

And Ismael being a wild man that would always be at war with everyone? And the Genesis account saying God's covenant is through Isaac?
You want a 'holy mountain', you can keep it. The true covenant is not one of territory, who owns what cities, but the true covenant is salvation.

The political entity that today calls itself "Israel" has no covenant with God, nor does He with it.
You cannot claim the heirship simply by taking on a name. The true people of God are not those of Jewish blood or religion, but those who honor God as true God.
And the days of killing everybody who does not look or think like me are long over.

The Muslims have NO COVENANT with God. Israel belongs to the Jewish people and has since God gave it to them .God's covenant was with Abrham, Issac and Jacob
