SAVE the holy sites and human history in Jerusalem from Israeli illegal excavation & destruction
This petition was published by Seham Elansary on Feb 10, 2007
We, the undersigned, contend that the Israeli excavations and destruction of the historical structures in the Old City Jerusalem are illegal and a violation of the international laws.
Recent Israeli excavations and destruction near and under the holy sites in the Old City Jerusalem threaten to change history. These excavations, if allowed to continue, threaten to seriously distort the historical significance of the Old City of Jerusalem. The integrity of monuments and historic sites that identify the heritage of humanity, especially sites of spiritual and cultural diversity, must be protected.
Jerusalem’s rich history belongs to all humankind. Old City of Jerusalem was declared by UNESCO as a threatened world heritage site.
We urge UNESCO and the United Nations, to protect our human history and to stop all forms of Israeli excavations and demolition of the historical Jerusalem.
