Dr. Mordechai Kedar traces how Islam’s treatment of Jerusalem was always based on politics and not holiness:
Since the holiness of Jerusalem to Islam has always been, and still is, no more than a politically motivated holiness, any Muslim leader or ruler would be putting his political head on the block should he give it up . . . Should Israel give up on its capital just because some Muslims decided to recycle the political problems of the Umayyads 1250 years after the curtain came down on their role in history?
Watch how Dr. Kedar created a buzz when he caught an Al-Jazeera anchor trying to rewrite the Koran on Jerusalem’s status in June.
