Temple Mount Times

YNet News obtained a copy of a UNESCO report which finds that the Mughrabi Gate excavations don’t undermine the Temple Mount:

In the report, which was obtained by Ynet, UNESCO experts laud Israel for the transparency with which the works were being carried out, and note that the excavations conducted near the Temple Mount compound do not jeopardize its stability….

Nevertheless, the organization criticizes Israel for failing to involve other institutes in the project, probably referring to the UN’s World Heritage Committee and Muslim bodies, such as the Waqf.

The UNESCO report is due to be released tomorrow. In other Temple Mount news, WorldNetDaily reports that Jordanian shell companies are quietly purchasing properties around the contested holy site.
