Just when you thought it could not get worse.......................the enormous world Islamic machine, the OIC (the Organization of the Islamic Conference) rears its ugly head in Jerusalem. The OIC is world conspiracy fact. Their objective? To impose Islam on the world. If the whole world became a dictatorship, then all one could do would be to form a conspiracy, which would be found out in a heartbeat - and die that way rather than commit suicide. Ayn Rand said, "that would be one's only choice".
The Ha’aretz daily cited Palestinian sources as saying the P.A. would accept a proposal that would divide sovereignty of Jerusalem’s Old City between Israel and the government of a future Palestinian state, with the OIC managing the Temple Mount.
Several Arab and Israeli media reports in recent days have suggested various elements of a purported Mideast peace plan soon to be announced by President Obama – possibly in a June 4 speech in Cairo – based on a 2002 Saudi-drafted Arab peace initiative but with some amendments.
In recent speeches and interviews, Jordan’s King Abdullah has fed speculation about a move to bring the OIC states into the equation, with talk about a “57-state solution.” The Saudi-based OIC has 57 members.
OIC foreign ministers meet in Damascus on Saturday with a full agenda, including “developments in the Holy City of al-Quds [Jerusalem],” according to an OIC statement. Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh last week urged the OIC to “rescue Jerusalem and its Islamic holy sites.”
The Temple Mount, location of the first and second temples, is the holiest site in Judaism. Known in Arabic as Haram al-Sharif (“noble sanctuary”), it is also the location of the Dome of the Rock and the al-Aqsa mosque, revered by Muslims as the third holiest site in Islam.
Between 1948 and 1967, Jerusalem was a divided city, with eastern Jerusalem, the Old City and its Temple Mount under Jordanian control. Since Israel captured the area from Jordan in the 1967 Six Day War, the Mount has been under overall Israeli sovereignty, although Israeli governments since then have permitted an Islamic authority to continue to manage the site.
Jewish access to the plateau is restricted for security and political reasons, and some rabbinical authorities also forbid Jews to go up for fear of defiling the place. Jews pray at the remnant of a retaining wall on the platform’s western flank.
The site has become a flashpoint in the Arab-Israeli conflict. Islamic leaders frequently allege that Israeli archeological excavations in the area will undermine and ultimately destroy the mosques; some see a conspiracy to do so, pointing to an incident in 1969 when a (non-Jewish) Australian, later declared insane, tried to set fire to al-Aqsa. The OIC was established a month later, as a direct Islamic response to the arson attempt.
Bat Ye'or describes the OIC this way:
"The
OIC is a unique organization — one that has no equivalent in the world.
It unites the religious, economic, military, and political strength of
56 states. By contrast, the European Union represents half as many
states and is a secular body only, and the Vatican — which speaks for
the world’s 1.1 billion Catholics — is devoid of any political power.
Many Muslims in the West resist the OIC’s tutelage and oppose its
efforts to supplant Western law with sharia. But the OIC’s resources
are formidable.
The organization has numerous subsidiary
institutions collaborating at the highest levels with international
organizations in order to implement its political objectives worldwide.
Its main working bodies are the Islamic Educational, Scientific, and
Cultural Organization (ISESCO), which seeks to impose on the West the
Islamic perception of history and civilization; the Observatory of
Islamophobia, which puts pressure on Western governments and
international bodies to adopt laws punishing “Islamophobia” and
blasphemy; and the newly created Islamic International Court of
Justice. As stated in its 1990 Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in
Islam, the OIC is strictly tied to the principles of the Koran, the
Sunnah, and the sharia. In a word, the OIC seeks to become the
reincarnation of the Caliphate.
The OIC regularly reiterates
its commitments to protecting the political, historical, religious, and
human rights of Muslims in non-OIC states, especially Muslims who form
the majority in specific regions of non-Muslim countries — such as the
southern Philippines, southern Thailand, and western Thrace in Greece —
as well as Muslims in places like the Balkans, the Caucasus, Myanmar,
India, and China. The OIC supports
Hamas and the Palestinians in their struggle to destroy Israel, as well
as the Muslim fight for “legitimate self-determination” in
“Indian-occupied Jammu and Kashmir.” It has condemned the “continual
Armenian aggression against Azerbaijan,” and it expresses its full
solidarity with “the just cause of the Muslim Turkish people of Cyprus”
and with Sudanese President Omar Hassan Al-Bashir, whom many hold
responsible for encouraging the massacres in Darfur. The seat of the
OIC is in Jeddah, but the organization regards that location as
temporary: Its headquarters will be transferred to al-Kods (Islamized
Jerusalem) when that city has been “liberated” from Israeli control.
In its efforts to defend the “true image” of Islam and combat its defamation, the organization has
requested the UN and the Western countries to punish “Islamophobia” and
blasphemy. Among the manifestations of Islamophobia, in the OIC’s view,
are European opposition to illegal immigration, anti-terrorist
measures, criticism of multiculturalism, and indeed any efforts to
defend Western cultural and national identities. The OIC has massive
funding from oil sources, which it lavishly spends on the Western media
and academia and in countless “dialogues.” It influences Western
policy, laws, and even textbooks through pressures brought by Muslim
immigrants and by the Western nations’ own leftist parties. Hence, we
have seen Kristallnacht-like incitements of hate and murder against
European Jews and Israel conducted with impunity in the cities of
Europe — where respect for human rights is supposed to be one of the
highest values."
