The UN has been viciously anti-Israel for years. Now it is even certifying Islamic mythology and defying actual history. The Kotel is the largest single indication of the Jews’ long history in the land of Israel. It is no surprise, then, that Muslims would try to appropriate it. That they would have UN help is yet another indication that the UN is just an arm of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and the US should withdraw from it.
UNESCO passes resolution declaring Temple Mount Muslim, not Jewish
Israel’s Sends an Unequivocal Message to Temple-Denying UNESCO
The message: “Piss off, deniers!”

Had UNESCO bothered to look, it could have found maps such as this one which establish the antiquity of the Jews’ claim to the land of Israel. (FYI to UNESCO deniers who are slow on the uptake:
It’s called “Judea” because it’s Jewish, you dolts.)
.
The UN has been long against Israel and proved it in a virulent way in Durban I, right before 9/11; since then, it has continued working toward the ultimate goal of delegitimizing Israel and ultimately destroying it, which is, of course, also the dream of jihadists.
UNESCO has now passed an expected anti-Israel resolution which denies “Jewish connections to the Temple Mount and Western Wall in Jerusalem,” despite abundant archeological evidence proving Israel’s connection to Jerusalem.
24 UNESCO member states voted in favor of the resolution, 26 abstained, and only six countries voted against.
Donald Trump weighed in, declaring that the resolution is a:
“one-sided attempt to ignore Israel’s 3,000-year bond to its capital city” and “further evidence of the enormous anti-Israel bias” at the United Nations.
Trump further stated that:
under his potential administration, “the United States will recognize Jerusalem as the one true capital of Israel” and that “Israel will have a true, loyal, and lasting friend in the United States of America.”
Christianity is also a priority on the hit list of jihadists, with a similar impulse to erase all the traces of the conquered religion. Back in 2012, Saudi Arabia’s highest Islamic authority said: “No Christian churches should be allowed in the Arabian Peninsula.”
“Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah, the Saudi grand mufti, said it is “necessary to destroy all the churches in the region.”
Abdullah further “cited an Islamic hadith quoting the prophet Mohammed on his deathbed, who said, ‘there are not to be two religions in the [Arabian] Peninsula,’ meaning only Islam can exist there.”
