| [IsraelTimes] Less than two weeks away from the scheduled transfer of the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... , Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... and the United Arab Emirates are pumping a quarter of a billion dollars into the Islamic Waqf and a slew of Moslem organizations in East Jerusalem, Hadashot news reported Wednesday. The Waqf (Moslem Trust) administers the Temple Mount, home to the al-Aqsa Mosque, Islam’s third holiest shrine, as well as a slew of schools, orphanages, Islamic libraries, Islamic courts and other properties. The mount is the holiest place in Judaism as the site of the ancient temples. Israel maintains overall security control at the site. The three countries are describing the move as an act of "rescue" to finance renovations at holy sites, but Israeli officials fear their involvement will go beyond money and could spark violence in the run-up to the ribbon-cutting on May 14, the TV report said. |
