OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- Israeli occupation's Jerusalem municipality planning committee has approved a plan to build a so-called ”tolerance museum” in the city's center.
But the oxymoronic Jewish museum of ”tolerance” is planned to be built on the historic Muslim Ma'manullah cemetery and would require the removal of hundreds of ancient skeletons of Muslims dating back to Medieval times.
According to Israeli media, the project was designed by the Simon Wiesenthal Center, the self-proclaimed Nazi hunter that works to stop anti-Judaism.
The Jerusalem municipality delayed approval of the project for the last two years in order for changes to be made on the architectural plan.
Ma'manullah cemetery, located west of Jerusalem's Old City 2 km away from Al-Aqsa Mosque's Al-Khalil gate, is the largest Islamic cemetery in Jerusalem, with an area of some 200 dunums.
