The Mughrabi Bridge Must Be Replaced
(Jerusalem Post) Editorial - During the winter of 2004, rainstorms, snow, and a minor earthquake destroyed the old Mughrabi Ascent connecting the Western Wall plaza to the Mughrabi Gate to the Temple Mount. A "temporary" wooden ramp was erected while a new bridge was planned. Jerusalem's chief engineer has now determined that the wooden ramp is dangerous, a fire hazard, and must be dismantled immediately. Some irrational Muslim leaders, intoxicated by their own lies, have intimidated Israel into inaction. Israel must not cave in to the insanity of Muslim extremism. The Mughrabi Bridge must be replaced.
