Recent study reveals: Al-Haram Al-Sharif's western wall is not the Wailing
Palestine-Israel, Politics, 3/5/2001

An Egyptian study uncovered that the western wall of A1-Haram Al-Sharif is the Buraq Wall, not the Wailing as the Jews allege to justify establishment of their state in Palestine.

Contained in a book issued recently by the Ain Shams University's Middle East Research Center, the study says 95% of Jews are not Israelites but rather foreigners of mixed races as referred to by British anthropologist James Fenton's 1966 paper.

It is illogical that there are any antiquities belonging to Prophets beneath Al-Aqsa Mosque, said the study, noting that Al Aqsa Mosque was built 2,000 years before Prophet Solomon and remained so until this day.

Prophets act according to heavenly revelations and hence it is unacceptable to claim that one Prophet had destroyed a place built by another before him in order to build a temple.

Resolutions of the international Shaw Committee, issued in the aftermath of the Buraq Intifada in 1928 under the Swedish Foreign Minister then, pointed out that no traces of stones remaining from the Temple of Solomon were found in the Western Wall.

Surprisingly enough, the Jews did not claim possession of this wall as all that they demanded is the recognition of their rights to have access to the wall to pray before it according to their rituals, added the study.
