Do Muslims have the right to claim the Temple Mount?

Israel is carrying out necessary repairs to a walkway and the Muslims have seized the opportunity to create havoc. They are claiming that the work being carried out will damage the Al Asqa mosque, but this is not true.

What I question is the right of the Muslims to even claim the site of the temple built by King Solomon as holy to Muslims. Their claim is based upon a fanciful legend that Mohammed ascended into heaven. I repeat, I believe that this is a fanciful legend, because only the Son of God could ascend into heaven, and that person is Jesus Christ, not Mohammed. The claim is simply not true.

The Israelis did the wrong thing when they allowed the Palestinians to have control over the Temple Mount. Every time these Palestinians go to their Friday prayer they end up rioting, looting and killing those who they see as being non-believers. The world in general needs to become alert and wake up to the danger that is posed by the continued tolerance of the infantile behaviour of the Muslims.

They should be turned out of the mosque that sits upon the Temple Mount and the mosque itself should be demolished. However, a new temple must not be built. There is no justification for the Jews to build another temple on the site. It should remain as ruins forever.
