Re: ...MK Chazan said that his parliamentary immunity grants him the right to visit the area. The police did not agree, and did not allow him to enter the Temple Mount. Members of the Temple Mount Faithful stood nearby, encouraging Chazan in his efforts. Chazan?!? Who's that nobody??? If anything, it was too little too late... The police had better have prevented Sharon from strutting around the Temple Mount, back in September 2000. Gus

Re: Police Hold Back MK From Visiting Temple Mount Police prepare to open Mount to Jews next week By Gideon Alon, Arnon Regular, Jonathan Lis and Nadav Shragai Public Security Minister Tzachi Hanegbi's statement yesterday that the Temple Mount would open "to Jewish tourists and non-Muslim pilgrims next week, even if there is no agreement with the Waqf," prompted an angry response from the Islamic trust. Waqf manager Adnan Al Husseini said the minister's statement was "an unnecessary provocation." He denied there was any agreement between the Waqf and the police about allowing "Christian or Jewish" tourists onto the plaza. He said "the Waqf is the only authority on the mount and it will ultimately decide who can enter and who can leave."

Meanwhile, PM Tony Blair has been successfully neutralized and mixed up into the "Kelly scandal"... Remember: it started with Israel (Mossad) slugging Lord Levy ,Blair's point man in the Mideast, and his wife in their house(). Well, if anything, that wasn't enough to dampen Blair's support of the roadmap --hence the "suiciding" of Dr Kelly, a shrewd, indirect hit at the PM himself... Iraq dossier blow for Blair* · Doubts raised by two more officials · Kelly portrayed as key expert · Words 'not wrong but lots of spin' · Charge against Campbell rejected Richard Norton-Taylor, Vikram Dodd and Nicholas Watt Tuesday August 12, 2003 The Guardian The government's attempts to bolster its case for the war against Iraq suffered a heavy blow on the first day of the Hutton inquiry yesterday when it was revealed that unease about the dossier on Saddam Hussein's weapons programme ran much deeper than Downing Street has claimed. Evidence presented to the inquiry into the apparent suicide of the Ministry of Defence scientist David Kelly showed that concerns expressed by Dr Kelly about the language of the government's dossier was shared within the intelligence community, even at a senior level. In a further undermining of Tony Blair's case, the inquiry heard that Dr Kelly's status was much more significant than the government has admitted, a direct rebuttal of last week's description of the dead scientist by a No 10 press officer as a Walter Mitty fantasist.
