VIDEO :: Israel in 1913 -- No Jews Allowed in Tomb of the Patriarchs. Only Muslims.



Israel in 1913 -- No Jews Allowed in Tomb of the Patriarchs. Only Muslims.(OneJerusalem)HT: InfidelBloggers.Watch this fascinating film of scenes from Israel's cities in 1913. It is worth pointing out the Hebron footage, which appears here. The local Muslim population prevented the Jews from entering the Mearat Hamachpela -- the Cave of Machpela, the Tomb of the Patriarchs. As such, Jews can be seen praying only OUTSIDE the walls of the building, while Muslims freely enter the site. Only since 1967, when Israel recaptured Hebron, could Jews enter and pray within the Holy site. The scene serves as a chilling reminder of what would happen -- in Jerusalem and elsewhere -- should the Palestinians ever gain control of Christian and Jewish Holy sites.
