First Stop for Jews

Reader comment on item: Jerusalem Means More to Jews Than to Muslims
in response to reader comment: importance of Jerusalem to Muslims

Submitted by Ayesha Zahyd (Pakistan), Nov 24, 2007 at 03:06

Jerusalem is the first stop for Jews whereas for Muslims it is the third-most Holiest place; the Jews believe that they have every right over it more than the Muslims, and it is really up to the scholars to dig further into this topic : that this city is worth more to the Jews than the Muslims, so why are the Muslims fighting over it?
