Urge Wiesenthal Center to Halt Construction of Museum on Muslim Cemetery

Published by CAIR - Greater Los Angeles Area on Nov 20, 2008

Building a ‘Museum of Tolerance’ atop the cemetery, unlike the admirable goal of furthering tolerance and understanding, will only add to the existing pain and suffering of Palestinians and Israelis, irreversibly damage relations between Muslims and Jews worldwide and sow new feelings of animosity and division for generations to come.

A comprehensive path toward reconciliation in Jerusalem must include measures to respect beliefs and heal the wounds of Muslim, Christian and Jewish communities.

Therefore, we ask that the Wiesenthal Center, in the spirit of cooperation and respect for all people and faiths, relocate the planned ‘Museum of Tolerance.’ Doing so will not only save the Wiesenthal Center time and money but also help avoid fanning the flames of intolerance in that volatile region.
