PA professor claims no Jewish connection to Wall

PA Academic: No Jewish Connection to Western Wall
The Jewish people have no connection to the Western Wall, said a Palestinian Authority professor in a television interview translated by Palestine Media Watch (PMW). Shamekh Alawneh, a modern history professor at Al-Quds Open University, said the Jews invented the connection to the Western Wall for the “political purpose of convincing European Jews and Zionists to come to Palestine."
"It has no historical roots," he said in a television program called "Jerusalem - History and Culture". "This is political terminology to win the hearts and the support of the Zionists in Europe. Nothing more."
