For years, Muslims blocked the construction of the Tolerance Museum in Jerusalem because the Wiesenthal Center planned it on an abandoned Muslim cemetery. Only a small part of the museum would have touched the long-abandoned cemetery, and the Center offered to relocate the graves. In Israel and the Palestinian-occupied territories, Muslims routinely build over their cemeteries without bothering to relocate the graves.
It took Israeli courts three years to clear the construction.
Despite the court’s order, the Central Conference of American Rabbis, a Jewish Reform outfit, passed a resolution, which “condemned the construction in the strongest terms.” The CCAR remained unconcerned when, for example, Ashkelon Barzilai hospital planned new construction on a Jewish cemetery. But Reform Jewish “rabbis” are always happy to help our Muslim enemies.
