CNN joins the Temple Mount bandwagon
CNN tries to get it right, but once again emphasizes the Muslim ties to the Temple Mount and ignore Judaism’s.
JERUSALEM (CNN) — An Israeli-Arab legislator Friday helped negotiate an end to a standoff between Palestinians and police at a disputed Jerusalem holy site.
The Palestinian protesters were upset with an Israeli construction project near Al Aqsa Mosque, Islam’s third holiest shrine, in Jerusalem’s Old City.
The area known as the Temple Mount to Jews and the Noble Sanctuary or Haram Al-Sharif to Muslims is sacred to both groups.
No mention that the Temple Mount is the holiest site in all of Judaism. Just a little moral equivalency in the third parargraph: “sacred to both groups.”
This is why the world hates Israel. Because the world media refuses to do what it claims is its job: Telling both sides of the story in an unbiased fashion. I’m seeing a decided tilt towards the Muslim view of the Temple Mount.
