Does Israel Give Free Access to Muslim and Christians
for their Holy Sites?
Since
1967,
hundreds
of
thousands
of Muslims and Christians-many from Arab countries that
remain in a state of war with Israel-have come to Jerusalem to
see their holy places.
According to Islam, the prophet Muhammad was miraculously
transported from Mecca to Jerusalem, and it was from there
that he made his ascent to heaven. The Dome of the
Rock and the al-Aqsa Mosque, both built in the seventh
century, made definitive the identification of Jerusalem as the
"Remote Place" that is mentioned in the Koran, and thus a
holy place after Mecca and Medina. Muslim rights on
the Temple Mount, the site of the two shrines, have not been
infringed.

inaccurate. If you follow the logic, such as it is, the president believes that
Islam is a religion of peace and, therefore, radical Islam does not exist. If
there are no radical Islamists then their victims must be still alive.
Okay, maybe I've twisted the logic a bit, but it's not that far off from the public
statements by politicians who apparently are petrified of the Muslim reaction
if they speak the truth. The irony is that Muslims themselves have no
difficulty identifying radicals among them - whether they be the Wahhabis of
Saudi Arabia, the Shiite followers of the Iranian Ayatollahs, Hezbollah, or the
Sunnis of Hamas, al-Qaeda and ISIS.

Fact of the Week
Texas A&M University and Israel Make $6 Million
Agreement for Marine Research Center
In 2013, Texas A&M University announced plans to open Texas A&M Peace
University in Nazareth. Gov. Rick Perry and A&M Chancellor joined Israeli
President Shimon Peres and Education Minister Shai Piron for the
annoucement. The school was to be financed by private donors from Texas
and around the world because Texas A&M is prohibited from investing public
funds in international campuses. In December 2015 Texas Governor Rick
Perry announced alongside President Peres that the plans to build Texas
A&M Peace University in Nazareth had been scrapped, in favor of building a
$6 million marine research center along the Mediterranean sea in
collaboration with the University of Haifa. Texas A&M system chancellor John
Sharp clarified that the A&M system changed their plans because elected
officials in the city of Nazareth were wanting to dictate aspects of the Peace
University project. Regardless of whether the original idea came to fruition or
not, Texas A&M accomplished their goal of expanding into Israel and
penetrating that lucrative market.
