No illegal digging is going on at present as far as I know. If the generators were a threat to the security of the State of Israel, they would have disappeared long ago.

The methodoloy or madness by Islam is to destroy all historical evidence of a country they inhabit for fear of exposure of their false ideology. The actual foundational base is theorised to be 52 1/2 feet below the current platform. This could be one of the reasons why the Muslims keep digging to find and destroy evidence. I heard recently they are bringing in generators of the type used for heavy equipment atop the mount. No empire in recorded history has ever been so destructive as Islam for the last 1539 yrs.

According to my calculations the southern edge of the southern stone of the two stones is located at the south-east exterior corner (i.e.including the width of the wall 4.5 m) of the Holy Temple Mount of 500 by 500 cubits. I published it in Hebrew in "Maalin Bakodesh" 10 and 11, in 2005 and 2006. You can see the plan of Temple mount in english with the corner stone at http://truthofland.co.il/english/images/templemountcom.gif. At http://www.truthofland.co.il/templemount/clermont_eng.gif you can see the gate found by Clermont. The drain found by him 9.65 m north of the center of the pillar of Muhamad corresponds exactly to the inner south-east corner of the original Temple Mount. At http://www.truthofland.co.il/templemount/drain_eng.gif you can see the drain closed by a small stone. Sincerely, Daniel Dear Len.
