Close, But No Aqsa

In a report on Israeli excavations supposedly damaging Al-Aqsa mosque, Iran’s Press TV ran the following photo.

Problem is, this is not Al Aqsa Mosque, but rather The Dome of The Rock.

Sure, they are both on Judaism’s Temple Mount (Har Habayit), but it is inconceivable that people who claim this is their holiest site – and lay a claim to the whole city of Jerusalem on such basis – could make such an error.

Press TV have since realized the error, replacing the above picture with this one:

Tells you much about how dear this site truly is to Muslims.

If that wasn’t already clear (Hat tip: HarelDan).
