This is just another propaganda to disclaim Jerusalem from any religious affilation on the part of the Mulsims. The word "Jerusalem" isnt mentioned, Daniel Pipes in right on that one. However, and most importantly the place which is called Jeruslaem now is mentioned many numerous times. Particular places that are in Jeruslaem and particular events that happened in Jerusalem are mentioned many times. It is the 3rd most religious site for Muslims. Even a large portion of them believe it to be the most important. Also, it is believed to be the place where the Prophet ascended to heaven. Can i have my million dollars now?

Here's another challenge, ill give 1million dollars to whomever finds the "word" Jerusalem in the Torah. Not references to it nor ancient names for it but "Jerusalem".
