Muslims ransacking Israel's Temple Mount - Jerusalem Newswire

Here is a report about recent construction (destruction?) taking place on the Temple Mount:
In an exclusive report Monday, WorldNetDaily revealed that the Waqf - or Islamic Trust - has been caught 'red-handed' destroying Temple-era antiquities, including parts of what may well be a wall from the Second Temple. The destruction is being wrought as the Arabs blast trenches in which to lay new electrical wiring for their mosques and other Muslim-controlled structures. Whereas Muslims throughout the Middle East and around the world have rioted and protested violently any plans by Israel to carry out excavations or repair work anywhere near the Temple Mount, Israel's Jews are conspicuous by the silence and almost total lack of interest in what the Muslims are doing to their holy of holies.
It's sad that the Israelis don't seem to care about this. I guess this secular attitude makes it easier to understand how they can consider sharing sovereignty over Jerusalem, something that seems a likely result of the current peace process.
