#2 Thank you Newc. The pissylamic mosque on the Temp Mount has never been mentioned in the terrorist handbook. Daniel Pipes has a fantastic historical explanation of the ongoing fraud.

A must read for actual back story.

Muslim Claim to Jerusalem is Taqijja/Deceit

Jerusalem is never mentioned in the Qur'an. In contrast, it is mentioned 823 times in the Bible, and Zion (which usually means Jerusalem, and sometimes "the Land of Israel"), appears 161 times. Of the 823 mentions of Jerusalem by name in the Bible, 669 of them are in the Old Testament, and 154 times in the New Testament. The Jews are the indigenous people of Jerusalem.
The Jews had lived in Israel almost 2000 years by the time Mohammed was born. Jesus was born in Bethlehem 600 years before Muhammed was born (= 7th Century).

The Qur'an refers to Muhammad's alleged "night journey" (isra) as follows:-"Glory to (Allah) Who did take his servant for a journey by night from the Sacred Mosque (in Mecca) to the farthest mosque-------------" (Subhana allathee asra biAAabdihi laylan mina almasjidi alharami ila almasjidi al-aqsa allathee barakna hawlahu linuriyahu min ayatina innahu huwa alssameeAAu albaseeru"). The claim of being "a holy place" is based on this dream described in the Koran. In the dream, Mohammed "visited" a place referred to as masjid el-aksa, which means "the farthest mosque".

But the El Aksa Mosque in Jerusalem was built about a hundred years after Mohammed. In Mohammed's time, Jerusalem was ruled by the Byzantine Christians, and there were no mosques at all in Jerusalem, not on the Temple Mount or anywhere else. So obviously, Mohammed couldn't have dreamed about a mosque that didn't exist.

#3 Second Temple (King Herod) built 37-4 BC

A small quibble: you are thinking of Herod’s expansion and modernization of the second Temple, Woodrow. But before that a smaller temple had replaced the rubble of the first Temple; it was designed and built on the orders of Cyrus the Great seventy years after Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the edifice King Solomon had built.
