#1 Not too surprising, actually. The Dome of the Rock is a sitting duck for extremist Jewish retaliation. F&%k knows that the local Arab population has been begging for some sort of major object lesson about why you need to respect other people's shrines.

Does anyone else remember how the Arabs turned The Wailing Wall into a pissoir during their occupation of the Temple Mount? I seem to recall similar desecration of The Church of the Nativity during that other recent standoff as well.

If only because of the immense bloodshed to follow, I have to hope that The Dome of the Rock is not vandalized. If it somehow is, I will be obliged to wonder if Islam will suddenly become a little more sensitive about the vulnerability of their remaining shrines.

They really need to be acutely aware of how Mecca and Medina will go into the crosshairs after a few more terrorist atrocities.

#4 I am all for a pact with the Russians to turn Mecca and Medina is to glowing holes if these Moose Limbs done settle down.
