My Way News - Irish prelates barred from Jerusalem's Western Wall
AP reports: "Shmuel Rabinowitz, the rabbi of the Western Wall, said that while the site is open to all faiths, worshippers are expected not to offend the sensitivities of Jews by displaying symbols of other religions. [...] The Western Wall, in Jerusalem's walled Old City, is a remnant of the Second Temple compound built by King Herod in the 6th century B.C. and destroyed by Roman conquerors in A.D. 70."

Comment: This would be the Temple that the Palestinians deny existed. The Middle East is a weird place.
