JPost - PM slams UNESCO calling Rachel's Tomb a mosque
The Jerusalem Post reports: "Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu bitterly attacked as 'absurd' a UN statement that the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron and Rachel’s Tomb in Bethlehem are an integral part of the 'occupied' Palestinian territories. 'The attempt to disconnect the nation of Israel from its heritage is absurd,' he said in a statement his office issued on Friday, in response to an October 21 decision regarding both sites by the executive board of the United Nation’s Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, UNESCO."
