Jordan needs to answer questions on Temple MountOn Jan. 5, an emergency session of the United Nations was held to castigate Israel for National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir's visit to the Temple Mount. The session was requested by China and the United Arab Emirates on behalf of the Palestinian Authority and Jordan, the latter of which has always regarded itself as the "special custodian" of Muslim holy sites in Jerusalem. The session was preceded by hostile rhetoric from the international community. PA Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh accused Israel of "turning the Al-Aqsa Mosque into a Jewish Temple" and called upon Palestinians to "confront the raids on the Harim al-Sharif" – the Muslim name for the Mount. Jordan's King Abdullah immediately traveled to the UAE to consult with President Mohamad Bin Zayed al-Nyan and warned Israel "not to cross red lines." www.israelhayom.com/opinions/jordan-needs-to-answer-questions-on-temple-mount/
