Let me say up front, if you don't already know, I'm a Christian. I believe the Bible (and the Torah) is the word of God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The koran and the muslim religion for that matter, (I can't called it "faith" because it's a religion of works and deeds) are not true or correct. That said, people who say Christians, Jews and muslims believe in the same God are misinformed. Either the koran is true or the Bible is true. They can both be false but they both can't be true. Islam, in my opinion, is evil. Their prophet adopted Torah and Bible accounts then twisted them to fit his new religion. Establishing justification to Jewish and Christian holy sites, such as the Temple Mount and the city of Jerusalem, where history and archeology aptly indicate Israel’s homeland.
But I'm getting way off topic.
Not that those crazy muslims need a reason to attack Jews or Israel, however, the rationale for the latest "fatwa" is the planned construction to repair an earthen ramp that partially collapsed in a snowstorm three years ago. When word reached Iran, the grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said "The world of Islam should show a serious reaction to the Zionist regime’s insult to Al-Aqsa Mosque." The sad fact about this is muslims have done far more irreparable damage to the Temple Mount area over the past 30 years, weakening foundational areas to expand their mosque and destroying archaeological treasures. The bridge in question leads from the plaza leading to the Western Wall up to the Temple Mount, and is considered a safety hazard in its current condition. Israel's Antiquities Authority is carrying out archaeological works there in anticipation of its refurbishing. Muslims around the country have taken advantage of the situation to accuse Israel of trying to destroy the Temple Mount complex, and have called for a response more extreme than the previous intifadas. Never let it be said that muslims will pass up an opportunity to launch rockets, throw rock and burn tires. If the palestinians ever acquire the state they claim to desire, what will happen to their violent tendencies?
Yaakov Lappin has a great op-ed in Ynet news. Lappin also tells the true history regarding the mosque and Temple Mount, but the truth doesn't matter when it comes to claims of insulting islam.
If you want to see the destruction that's been done to the Temple Mount by muslims, you can go to this website and see for yourself.
Historical evidence means nothing to muslims and islamic sympathizers. The facts are clear, all we have to do is listen to what muslims have been saying for decades, "Death to Israel" and "Death to America."

"but the truth doesn't matter when it comes to claims of insulting islam."
The truth and the laws don't matter to Muslims... Only the agenda.
What political party does that remind you of?
Ah, the democrats?
These muslims are so thin skinned, any and every thing seems to insult the "religion of peace."
