U.N. warring against 'cultural foundations of the West'

The world was stunned just a few days ago when,it was reported that the United Nations educational, scientific and cultural division voted that the Jews have no historical connection the Temple Mount.

That despite hard evidence that never has been refuted.

Now, several analysts have pointed out how far-fetched that conclusion is and how it plays into the hands of Islamic supremacists.

“No one would be surprised if, a few years from now, UNESCO, institutionalize the Islamic presence in the international community, claims that Greeks have nothing to do with the Acropolis and the Parthenon, and that Italy has no historical ties to the Colosseum in Rome.”

The comment comes from Maria Polizoidou, a consultant on international and foreign affairs who is based in Greece.

It follows the startling vote from UNESCO that denies all Jewish connection to the Temple Mount and Western Wall, insisting the historically Jewish sites be identified by Muslim names.

Shoshana Bryen, writing for the Gatestone Institute at the time of the vote, said the decision on the Palestinian-backed resolution “seems clearly a response to the expansionist, jihadist aspirations of members of the OIC who sponsored it: Algeria, Egypt, Lebanon, Morocco, Oman, Qatar and Sudan.”

The OIC is the powerful Organization of Islamic Cooperation, which controls a 57-nation bloc of Islamic nations.

Polizoidou made clear a radical agenda is under way.

“When the news arrived that UNESCO does not recognize the connection of the Jewish people to Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, it brought to mind that the U.N. is the mothership of injustice and radical global Islamization.”

She said U.N. members “evidently believe that if they want to transform the Western world into an Islamic colony, first they must bring down the state of Israel.”

“If Jerusalem falls into the hands of Islam, the rest of the world will presumably fall. UNESCO’s decision is not only nonsensical from a historical perspective (Islam did not even exist at the time of ancient Jerusalem), basically it is also a strategy move against the cultural foundations of the West.”

Jagdish Singh, a senior journalist based in New Delhi, joined in Polizoidou’s concerns.

“After so many recent votes at UNESCO erasing Judeo-Christian history in favor of Islamist misrepresentation, and now in this fraudulent representation of Judaism’s holiest site (a city more than twice as old as Islam) as primarily Muslim, one thing is clear: the sooner democracies leave the U.N., the better.”

The claim to sever any connection between Jews and the Temple Mount came on a 24-6 vote. Supporting the move were Brazil, China, Dominican Republic, Egypt, Morocco, Mexico, Mozambique, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Oman, Russia, South Africa, Vietnam and others.

Six “no” votes were from Estonia, Germany, Lithuania, Netherlands, United Kingdom and United States.

Singh, also writing at the Gatestone Institute, said: “It is clear from the history of faiths that the holy scriptures of the Jews are far older than the Islamic ones. … UNESCO is supposed to help preserve the entire world’s heritage, but this cultural agency seems to have been hijacked by the leadership and allies of the Palestinians and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation.”
