The Actual Status Quo On the Temple Mount

The US Deputy Ambassador to the UN for the Biden Administration expressed a strong desire to maintaining the status quo on the Temple Mount. The biggest  problem is, not everyone in the Biden Administration seems to know what is the actual status quo in International Law that is currently existing on the Temple Mount today.

The actual Legal Status Quo is as follows: The Temple Mount and all of the land West of the River Jordan belong to Israel. From the Bible to San Remo to defensive war land reacquisition, to no historic Palestinian Arab home in Judea and Samaria and Gaza. The territories belong to Israel, and that is why the UN keeps expecting Israel to police it.  

The Customary Status Quo is that the Palestinian Authority and the Muslim Waqf on the Temple Mount, are only as governors unless Israel fully gives the land away. It did not, the terrorists would not let them. That option is done with. Like a big sister who wanted to go to a party and hired a serial killer to babysit while the parents are out, the responsibility is still on the big sister, Israel, to keep the peace. If Israel continues to empower terrorists, once their violent hand is revealed, it from then on bears ethical and moral responsibility to an extent for the evil that the terrorists do; they empowered it. Even if your good friends mistakenly says, hire the serial killer. What is the end result? Therefore, do not listen to them; listen to your conscience instead.

The best way to advance Palestinian rights, is to remove their despotic terrorist leaders. Replace them with new Arabic regional councils. Replace the repressive Fatah and Hamas police with the multiethnic IDF. Let the good civilization building Arabs join the Israel of tomorrow. Let everyone share in the subsequent peace and prosperity. 

The only way to keep Palestinian Arabs down, is to keep the wrong status quo in your mind, and within your policy. Rather remove the terrorists, and as a natural consequence, embrace true peace.

May it soon be so, by the grace of God.
