UNESCO IS PERPETRATING LIES:
Posted onJewish identification with the land of Israel goes back almost 4,000 years to the time when God told Abraham to leave his homeland of Ur and go "to the land that I will show you" (Gen 12:1). Israel became a nation 2,000 years before the rise of Islam in the seventh century A.D., and has had a continual presence in the Holy Land for many centuries. Jerusalem has been the Jewish capital since the time of King David, and the site of Solomon's Temple and later Herod's Temple is the holiest place in Judaism . Even when Jordan occupied Jerusalem, it never sought to make it their capital. Jerusalem is mentioned hundreds of times in the Hebrew Scriptures, but not once in the Koran. Mohammed never visited Jerusalem. (JNN)
