Middle East Myths “The Myth of Al Quds”
www.rbooker.com...
Mohammed and the Jews
In the early day of Islam, Mohammed held the Jews in high esteem and even tried to befriend them. Oddly enough, he recognized that the Jews were God's chosen people and that God had promised them the Land. The Koran reads, "O Children of Israel! Remember … that I exalted you above all people" (Sura II, The Cow, v 2:47). The Koran also includes the following statement from Moses to the Hebrews, "Remember, my people, the favor which Allah bestowed upon you. He has raised up prophets among you, made you kings, and given you that which He has given to no other nation [the Land]. Enter My people, the holy land which Allah has assigned for you … "(Sura V, The Table Spread, vv 20-21). These are certainly not politically correct statements today.
Now all religions, including my own, have their legends. I am certainly not the one to judge them. But the problem with this one is that Mohammed died decades before a mosque was built on the Temple Mount. So Jerusalem and the Temple Mount cannot possibly be the location of the farthest mosque mentioned in the Koran. Mohammed died in 632, six years before Jerusalem fell to the Arabs under Caliph Omar in 638. The Dome of the Rock was not built until 692, which was sixty years after Mohammed's death. The Al- Aqsa Mosque was not built until 712, which is eighty years after Mohammed's death.
The Mosque on the Temple Mount
The Caliph Omar defeated the Byzantine Christians in 636 at the battle of the Yarmuk River. Jerusalem surrendered to him in 638. Until this time, Jerusalem had been outside the realm of Islam. Caliph Omar built a small house of prayer near the rock on the site of the destroyed Jewish Temple. The purpose was to show that Islam had replaced Judaism and Christianity as the last divine revelation.
Later, the Umayyad Caliph Abd al-Malik, whose capital was in Damascus, built the Dome of the Rock on the same site. Twenty years later, his son, Caliph al-Walid built the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Aqsa is Arabaic for furthermost or remotest. As a way of establishing a legitimate claim of Islam over the Temple Mount, this mosque has been identified as the one spoken of in the Koran.
Historians tell us that Abd al-Malik built the Dome of the Rock on the site to: 1) link himself as the successor to King Solomon, (2) to contradict Jesus' statement that the Temple would be destroyed (Matthew 24, Luke 21), (3) To compete against spectacular church sites such as the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, and (4) to encourage Moslim worshippers in his territory to make pilgrimages to the Dome of the Rock rather than making pilgrimages outside of his territory to his rival Caliph in Mecca.
Abd al-Malik was eager to emphasize the independence and the triumph of the new religion over Christianity both militarily and ideologically. He put a lengthy Arabic inscription on the Dome of the Rock condemning Christianity. It contains many verses from the Koran, but not the one about Mohammed's night journey. Surely, he would have included that verse if he thought it referred to the Temple Mount Mosque.
While Abd al-Malik considered himself building the Dome of the Rock on top of the place where Solomon's Temple stood, Islamic leaders today deny there was even a Jewish Temple on the Mount.

Iran launches cartoon exhibition on the Holocaust
Aug 15, 2006
www.iranian.ws...
An exhibition of more than 200 cartoons about the Holocaust opened Monday as Iran's response to last year's Muslim outrage over a caricature of the Prophet Mohammed in a Danish newspaper.
The display, showing 204 entries from Iran and abroad, was strongly influenced by the views of Iran's hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who drew widespread condemnation last year for calling the Holocaust a "myth" and saying Israel should be destroyed.
One cartoon by Indonesian Tony Thomdean shows the Statue of Liberty holding a book on the Holocaust in its left hand and giving a Nazi-style salute with the other.
it goes on to note
The exhibition runs until September 13 and the winner will receive $12,000. The exhibition hall is next to the Palestinian Authority's embassy in Tehran, which was Israel's diplomatic site in Iran before the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
Iran Opens Controversial Holocaust Cartoon Exhibition
www.rferl.org...
August 14, 2006 -- An exhibition of more than 200 cartoons about the Holocaust opened today in the Iranian capital, Tehran.
Participants include cartoonists from Iran and foreign countries, such as the United States, Indonesia, and Turkey.
The Iranian newspaper "Hamshahri," which co-sponsored the event, says the exhibition is aimed at testing the West's tolerance for drawings about the killing of 6 million Jews by the Nazis during World War II.
The event is also designed as a response to the outrage caused among Muslims last year by Western caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad.
Iran: President Says Light Surrounded Him During UN Speech
www.rferl.org...
Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad says that when he delivered his speech at the UN General Assembly in September, he felt there was a light around him and that the attention of the world leaders in the audience was unblinkingly focused upon him. The claim has caused a stir in Iran, as a transcript and video recording of Ahmadinejad's comments have been published on an Iranian website, baztab.com. There are also reports that a CD showing Ahmadinejad making the comments also has been widely distributed in Iran. Is the Iranian president claiming to be divinely inspired?
It goes on
Ahmadinejad said that someone present at the UN told him that a light surrounded him while he was delivering his speech to the General Assembly. The Iranian president added that he also sensed it.
"He said when you began with the words 'in the name of God,' I saw that you became surrounded by a light until the end [of the speech]," Ahmadinejad appears to say in the video. "I felt it myself, too. I felt that all of a sudden the atmosphere changed there, and for 27-28 minutes all the leaders did not blink."
