As I previously reported, here, six Arab nations drafted a plan to claim the Western Wall, Israel's most religious Jewish site, for Muslims.
I can now happily report that the Islamic domain was removed from an Arab coalition-backed motion passed by a UN cultural council today. The draft decision was revised and the clause, calling for the Western Wall to be recognized as part of the Al-Aqsa Mosque structure on Jerusalem's Temple Mount, was removed.
The Western Wall is part of a retaining wall that supported the second Jewish temple and is the closest they can come to the Temple Mount to pray. This ground is so holy to the Jewish people, even the earth worms wear yarmulkes (Jewish skull caps).
This decision by UNESCO will likely anger Muslims throughout the Muslim world, although this anger has been going on since Mohammad married a six-year-old girl named Aisha.
