So, We Were Attacking The Mosque Even Then?

From a UN Security Council document:-

S/751
18 May 2004

CABLEGRAM DATED 18 MAY 1949 FROM THE KING OF TRANSJORDAN
ADDRESSED TO THE SECRETARY-GENERAL


"In the course of yesterday's Jewish offensive actions against the old City of Jerusalem a mortar shell fell within the Mosque Compound in front of the dome above the Sacred Rock. We inform you of this incident coupled with our protest. Thanks to the Almighty the bomb caused no damage.

Abdullah R."


I think that should be 1948.
