Report: Olmert has dared to 'offer up Temple Mount'

For the second time in two weeks, journalists are reporting that Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has offered to relinquish Israel's holiest site to the Arabs in exchange for promises of peace from the "Palestinians."
According to "top Palestinian sources" quoted in WorldNetDaily, Olmert presented a plan to the PA Tuesday, the same day the Israeli leader held a meeting in Jerusalem with PLO/PA chief Mahmoud Abbas.
This plan is said to cede full authority over the Temple Mount to the Muslim Arab world while Israel would retain control over the Western (Wailing) Wall and its plaza below the mount.
A combined Muslim, Jewish and Christian "taskforce" would govern sites holy to the three religions in the Temple Mount vicinity.
While Jerusalem is often called a city holy to "the three great monotheistic religions" of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, it is more accurately the holy city of two great monotheistic religions and one monotheistic heathenism.
Muslims do not serve the God of Israel; they worship the ancient moon-god of Arabia, Allah. Jerusalem is not mentioned once in their "sacred" writings.
By contrast, the Temple Mount has been the most sacred place on earth to the Jewish people for 3,000 years.
It is the site of Israel's ancient First and Second Temples, and the Bible states repeatedly that it is the place the God of Israel has chosen to put His name.
The Temple Mount is also the "place of My throne and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever," God says in Ezekiel 43:7.
Jews and Christians believe the Messiah, Son of David, will reign over the world from this special site.
Despite this, the shocking reports about Olmert’s action had been largely ignored by the Israeli press more than 24 hours after WorldNetDaily published them.
