Israeli Minister’s Visit of Jerusalem Holy Site Draws International Condemnation



The U.N. Security Council is due to discuss the controversial visit by newly appointed Israeli Police Minister Itamar Ben Gvir to a Jerusalem holy site this week. The visit sparked criticism across the Arab world and from Israel’s closest ally, the U.S. Analysts say it is a sign that the new hardline Israeli government could spark new regional tensions.

  1. The minister clearly stressed the importance of allowing everyone to be able to come to the religious site without discrimination, and suddenly the entire Middle East is attacking him just because he said that Jews should also be able to go. This is utterly ridiculous.

  2. It is ridiculous that after a thousand-plus years, these two religions are still bickering over a mound of earth. Clearly there will never be peace between them until one of them either subjugates or expels the other.

  3. Sorry to say this about the Muslim religion, but it is filled with Religious Extremist. So, no surprise here.

    in my opinion all Religion are good and should be accessible to all kinds of people, It gives strength, a Purpose, and moral lessons to those who follow or read their Scriptures. but, A religion becomes toxic if it allows extremist to rule and dominate all things their culture they morph those lesson into lies and destroy the foundation the religion or culture was built upon.

    Religious Extremists cause Xenophobia, war, and Suffering.
