as you see al jazeere is refelecting the arab mentality and the guy is proving to the interviewer how this mentality is based on lies and enticements. the arab/muslim world problem is their ignorance and lack of knowlege. if we had a good pr to enlighten their brains, most of the problem would have been solved.

Please get your facts straight. It wasn't a mistake, Al-Jaz knew exactly who he was and it's not the only time they've interviewed Dr. Kedar: http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull&cid=1204546409876

It's about time someone told the arabs off to their face! I applaud Mr. Kedar for being bold enough to stand up to them on Al-Jazeera! The arabs are not satisfied that they have taken over most countries (including US). I live in "little arabia", literally. Our street signs are even in arabic now! I had to learn to read and write it just to make it around in my own town I was raised in, which, by the way, was not arab controlled when I was growing up! They throw a pity party because they cannot have one little piece of land that the Jewish nation DOES possess and own! The only reason they want it is because it is the promised land to the Jews and they're jealous because they still think they are the promised nation, which they are not! I agree whole heartedly with Mr. Kedar and with Oliver who left his comment. The palestinians are NOT the Philistines... They were defeated back with Samson in the Bible... And hello! Samson is in the Quran too! Wake up and smell the roses! You guys are just wanderers and always will be! Get over it!

This guy is great. The muslims need to be asked why they expect everyone to put up with them in their countries - with full rights - and they do not do the same in return! I hope that Israel gives up NO more land to the muslims. Their stated intent is to get all of it - and since muslim's idea of peace is to not last longer than 10 years and is to be broken at any time - they won't honor any peace treaty until they wipe out the Jews, like they did the Zorastrians, and so many others. the muslims know no honor - their honor is in torturing and/or killing infidels - and even their own women. This is why there is NO tie between their 'religion' and Judaism and Christianity. People need to read about their battle tactics against us - their koran and hadiths to know what their intent is towards us - either death, conversion or subjugation (dhimmitude).

Under International Law the City of Jerusalem should remain an undivided City managed by the Muncipality of Jerusalem in accordance with United Nations Resolution 181 November 29th 2007 and the Jordainian Act of Disengagment as of 1988. Therefore, any resolution under Interntional Law has to involve an impartial settlment over the Temple Mount keeping in mind that the Dome of the Rock lies in Har Habbayit or Outer Santified Court or Court of the Gentiles. from the Second Temple era. Therefore any Palestinain State needs to accord with the Principles of International Law in compliance with the Compact of Peace Caliph Omar made with the City of Jerusalem in 637 AD. The truth of these matters is simply this that the City of Jerusalem has had a majority Jewish population since 1830 and in accordance with the Compact of Omar the Sephardic Jews representing the seed of Isaac and the Arabs the seed of Ishmael lived peaceablay alongside each other in Hebron for more than 800 years until 1929 seven years after the cessation of the last Caliphate in Istanbul in 1922 (Ottoman Turks 1517 - 1917 promulgated by Kemal Attaturk upon the creation of the Republic of Turkiye in 1923.

I would love to forward this interview, but how ??

I loved that "poker face" the Al-Jazeera host displayed when the Israeli minister reminded him that Jerusalem was never mentioned in the Koran. He pretty much swallowed his tongue,just like when somebody is caught in a lie. I wish more people could watch this video and find out why Arab/Muslim lies and half-truths can never counter argument a good fact-based check of history.

I was unable to find a link to this story on any major media including JPost or HaAretz, What are they afraid of? If all Jews spoke this way their claims would be respected, and they wouldn't be on the defensive over every move they made.

Al Jazeera did finally say something worth of value, but they will backslide on it and make excuses of why the mistake took place. The world needs to be reminded AGAIN that the Palestinians are a FICTICIOUS group of terrorists and malcontents. They didn't exist until Terror master Arafat created them in the mid 60's simply for the destruction of israel. They couldn't even say Palestinian correctly. The fictious Palestians have no history before arafat and have snowed the world into believing they are so long-long sovereign people who got their land stolen. What a big lie that belongs in Disney Land. There is NO history of a palestinian people. No artifacts, no gov't, no currency, no documents, no scientific inventions unless one wants to call the suicide belt an invention and that only recently as history goes. NO ARAB country wants those misguided and lost Palestinian people becasue they don't exist and it is a total lie for anyone to say they do exist except in ideology. No arab country even wants to absorb the Palestinians and Jorden even kicked them out for the terrorists they are. It's time for gov't to go on the bandwagon again and prove to the world again that the long lost Palestinian people are a hoax. If the Palestinians consider Israel a hoax when it had legitmite and historical ties to the land to long before the invention of Islam, how can they say they have legitimate claims to the land when they didn't even exist? It is time again to prove to the world that the Palestinians are nothing but fictious and an Arafat front to destroy Israel who does have legitimate to the land, historically, religiously, artifacts dating way before the the Palestinian hoax with new Jewish relics still showing up proving that the Palestinians did not exist and never did and are NOT a part of the Philistines who were a costal people who went extinct by most senses of the word. Amazing how Israel and Judah long existed way before islam even was created and they profess they have a historical claim to the land they abandoned, sold and left years ago, that is until Israel made the desert bloom. Time to hit the airwaves, newspapers and tabloids and magazines and internet to prove to the world again that the so called Palestinian people don't exist in history except since Arafat created them. No arab country wants them and the UN has a dedicated program JUST FOR these Palestinians, that no one else seems to get. The world needs to know the truth about the hoax palestinians and their squandering of money and resources, just so they can wipe Israel off the map with kassams and suicide attacks. They are nothing but a refugee state that no one wants and do not deserve any land for a state they are not entitled to. All their concern is hating, killing and belonging to the states of terror and death to rid Israel to the sea. Wake up world, the Palestinians are a fictious group of malcontents and terrorists and have not yet joined the civilized world. But it is time for the world to be remined again.

All Arabs are TRESSPASSING on what the God of Abraham gave to him and his decendants, you must Go, get off

One of the most impressive interviews I've ever watched. Those in charge at Al-Jazeera obviously thought to lean on Mr Kedar, as a fluent arabic speaker must have sympathies to the arab side of the story, to get a good shot at Israeli policies. Interesting how arab inate, distorted, unopposed dream stories get short shrift from a hardened experienced Jewish speaker. I hope a great lot of arabs have been able to watch the conversation. They must have listened to never-heard of new elements in the "story". Now they've heard it, first time (?), in their own language, live from "Al Quds". The power of free speech ! I only feel sorry for Al-Jazeera for not knowingly having invited Mr Kedar for what he stands for. Only that would have elevated the Qatari TV station to what it should be, a medium to hear all sides. If only our media would stand up to fabricated, twisted "news" and give us the whole/real picture. Great hasbara Mr Kedar !

Thank you so much for keeping us informed of the truth and current events, as they really are...Thank you!

What a pleassure to hear an Arab speak the truth. He should be in negotiations in stead of Ms. Rice and Mr. Bush ! Have a good Shabbat.

Mordecai Kedar spoke the truth: the West Bank does not belong to anyone, and East Jerusalem is an integral part of Jerusalem. Israel has the right to build in both places because Israel is the governing state in both places. All of this land was conquered in the Six-Day War in 1967. I just wonder what Israeli-Palestinian negotiations the moderator of Al-Jazeera is referring to. There is not any representative government in Israel at this time. Kadima does not represent the people of Israel. Olmert does not have the authority to make any concessions to the Palestinians because he is at best a lame-duck prime minister in that he will be out of his position in the short term.

Send Me One Jerusalem Updates
United Jerusalem Petition
  • I support a unified Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty, to ensure free and open access for all people.
  • I support a unified Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty, as an expression of the unique relationship between the Jewish People and its eternal capital.
  • I support a unified Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty, so as never to return to the dark period of 1947-67, when Arab control over an artificially divided Jerusalem meant religious persecution, desecration of holy sites, and wanton destruction.
  • I support a unified Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty, according to the current municipal boundaries, set in the wake of Israel’s defensive 1967 Six Day War.
  • I support a unified Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty, where Jews may enjoy the right to pray on the Temple Mount, the holiest site in the Jewish world.
Preserve The Temple Mount
  • For a decade, Muslim religious authorities have participated in the destruction and elimination of precious Jewish and Christian artifacts on the site of Solomon's Temple, the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
  • Thousands of tons of earth, containing archaeological evidence dating back to the period of the Temple of Solomon, were discarded. Among the 'rubble' were ancient seals from a Priestly family, inscribed pottery fragments in Ancient Hebrew, Altar screens and broken columns from a fourth century Byzantine Church.
  • Since the year 2000, the Muslim religious authority – the Waqf - has blocked all archaeological oversight of the Temple Mount.
  • Meanwhile, the Waqf continues to construct Mosques on the sacred sites of Jews and Christians.
  • We believe the international and Israeli media should have unrestricted access to the Temple Mount.
  • We believe the world-respected Israeli Antiquities Authority be empowered to supervise the day to day activities on the Temple Mount.
  • Currently, the Waqf forbids any non-Muslim entrance, except on a selective and very limited basis. For instance, the Waqf does not give any observers access inside the vast subterranean rooms, from which many antiquities have been removed.
  • We demand the preservation and respect of the Temple Mount. Only full access and complete transparency for all parts of the Temple Mount can prevent further abuse and destruction of this site which has been venerated throughout history.
