UNESCO Adopts "Fake History"

(Israel Hayom) Nadav Shragai - Under existing conditions at UNESCO, there was no reason for Israel to keep its place at the table with the gang that every few months rewrote another chapter of the history of the Land of Israel and the Jewish people, and co-opted it for the Palestinians. UNESCO chose time and again to adopt "fake history" and Palestinian fabrications. UNESCO questioned Jewish ties to the Temple Mount and the Western Wall, treating us as if we were occupiers in our own capital, even though Jerusalem was never a capital for any Arab or Muslim ruling entity. Even the Jordanians never used Jerusalem as their capital in the years in which they occupied the city. UNESCO decided to call Rachel's Tomb the Bilal Ibn Rabah mosque, even though it was never traditionally called that. The Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron, which Abraham bought from Ephron the Hittite, was long ago stolen from us by Muslims. We are not passersby in this land. We weren't just born here and we didn't just move here. The Land of Israel's many holy sites are the cradle of our people's birth and our present and our future here rests on more than "security needs." The writer is a journalist and commentator who has documented Jerusalem for 30 years.
