2. J-Street: UNESCO vote shows contempt for Jewish People's Ties to Temple Mount

Wed Oct 19, 2016, 03:27 PM

Oct 2016

J Street is profoundly disappointed by today’s adoption by member states of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Executive Board of a resolution that outrageously seeks to rewrite history by erasing the Jewish people’s deep historical and religious ties to the Temple Mount, known in Hebrew as Har HaBayit.
