The 2006 Situation
Again - Save Mount Zion! - The Vatican is at it again
- going after another Jewish holy site on Mount Zion. Find out what's
going on, and what you can do to stop it.
The
2005 Situation
The
President of Israel, Moshe Katsav, was to meet with the Pope in a private
audience on November 17, 2005. Early media reports indicated that this
meeting would include the exchange of a portion of the Kever David
HaMelech (the traditional tomb of King David) on Mt. Zion, Jerusalem
for a building that at one time was a synagogue in Toledo, Spain. There
are no Jews in Toledo, they were murdered and chased out in the pogroms
of 1391 that affected all of Spanish Jewry preceding the Inquisition.
Through the
work of the Committee to Save Mt. Zion, we were successful in halting
the transfer by exposing the trade. We continue to monitor the situation.
