UN General Assembly Erases Jewish Link to Temple Mount in Jerusalem
(United Nations) The UN General Assembly on Wednesday adopted a resolution titled "Jerusalem," in which the Assembly reiterated its determination that any actions taken by Israel to impose its laws, jurisdiction and administration on the Holy City of Jerusalem are illegal. The representative of the United States said that the resolution concerning "Jerusalem" only references Haram al-Sharif rather than "Haram al-Sharif/Temple Mount," which recognizes the shared history of the holy site. It is morally, historically and politically wrong for the Assembly to support language that denies both the Jewish and Muslim connections to the Temple Mount and Haram al-Sharif, he said.
