Jewish Connection to Israel Undermined

The Temple Mount- Judaism's most holy site. On it stood the First and Second Temples and on it will stand the Third Temple, may it be rebuilt speedily in our days. Over thousands of years, Jews were denied access to this holy spot. During the 67 war, Israel liberated this holy mount. Instead of guaranteeing full access to Jews, control of the site was turned over to the Wakf, an Islamic Council. This council has consistently denied the Jewish connection to the site and destroyed archaeological evidence proving Jewish presence there. Like Arafat (may his name be obliterated) said "For 34 years [the Israelis] have dug tunnels [around the Temple Mount]…they found not a single stone proving that the Temple of Solomon was there, because historically the Temple was not in Palestine [at all]. They found only remnants of a shrine of the Roman Herod… They are now trying to put in place a number of stones so that they can say 'We were here.' This is nonsense. I challenge them to bring a single stone from the Temple of Solomon." This is all an Islamic propaganda attempt to undermine Jewish sovereignty in Israel.
Now, as Israeli archaeologists are preparing to excavate around the mount and to rebuilt the only gate allowing non-Muslims access to the site, Muslims are rioting, claiming that Israeli is trying to destroy the Al-Aksa Mosque. Not only has Israel not retaliated, it is cowtowing to these anti-semites! How long will we be denied access to the Temple Mount? How long will Zion be in the hands of our enemies?
