According to Turkish media reports, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu announced that �soon, Jerusalem will be the capital of Palestine and soon, we will be in al-Aqsa�. The senior officials reportedly made his remarks during a meeting of Arab foreign ministers a number of days ago in Istanbul.
A Turkish official seeking to explain the comment stated �you know, any Turkish citizens wishing to pray in al-Aqsa required permission from Israeli authorities�.
The unnamed official is quoted in the daily HaMevaser adding, �The Gaza blockade will soon be lifted and just as this is a priority, the creation of the State of Palestine is a priority for us�.

Anyone who lives in a country named after a poultry should just hide and stay hidden
Let bystanders and critics listen and notice how in this man’s words, the lifting of the Gaza blockade is only a rung on the ladder.
I find it mamash funny how they claim the al-aksa mosque is so important to the moslem world.
I remember the first time I went to the Kotel, in 1969, just as the big mosque has a metallic gold dome, the al-aksa mosque had a metallic SILVER dome.
Anyone who has visits Yerushalayim NOW, knows that mosque (at the southern end of Har HaBayit) has now has a dirty gray colored dome.
With the arab world being so rich, and al-aksa being so “chashuv”, why have they allowed that place (that they are so ready to kill for) not merit a paint job?!?
