(Ynet News) Amir Shoan - In July 2007, Israel Antiquities Authority inspector Ira Pasternack saw the Arab tractor driver bring down his huge blade with great force, shattering the ancient floors on Temple Mount. According to specific Antiquities Authority instructions, any digging at the site was not allowed to exceed 60 cm. (roughly two feet) and was not to be undertaken using mechanical equipment. However, reports drafted by Pasternack and other sources, exposed for the first time by Yediot Ahronot on Friday, indicate that workers largely ignored the instructions. Much of the work was done using a tractor and reached deeper than allowed for in the permit. Earth removed from the site was thrown into an improvised garbage dump by members of the Waqf (the administrative Muslim body in charge of Temple Mount). The Waqf is consistently erasing any trace of Jewish history at the site. 2012-02-27 00:00:00Full Article
