Imminent: Israel's
Capitulation to the Vatican
Agreements with the Vatican are
capitulation to their plans for the Old City and
the Temple Mount - or should we say the "Holy
Basin".
A
long-awaited agreement between the Vatican and
Israel appears to be near finality.
The
two main points revolve around the Church's
requests to build two centers in Israel: a
church in a section of the Caesaria National
Park where a site dedicated to Paul once stood,
and the use of a plot on Mount Zion in
Jerusalem.
The
structure on Mt. Zion, the highest point of
Jerusalem, is known as the Cenacle, where the
Last Supper is believed to have taken place, and
according to the deal which will be signed in
the coming months,
it will become open to Catholic worship once
again.
The
Vatican asks Israel to allow the Church to build
a passageway through the Diaspora Yeshiva, which
takes care of the area known as David's Tomb,
and to enable thousands of Christian worshipers
to access the Last Supper Room more easily .
The
area has strategic value, since it is a few
hundred yards from the Temple Mount, so the
Catholic Church will turn it into the
international center for Catholics all around
the world.
