The Palestinian Museum has a collection of some 130,000 digitized photos and documents. A couple of them portray Jews, perhaps from the 1920s, praying at the Western Wall.


Jewish Pilgrims Pray by al-Buraq Wall, Jerusalem the 1920s

Taken in the 1920s, this photograph shows Jewish pilgrims praying by the al-Buraq Wall; which  Zionists and Jews call the "Wailing Wall", located in the southern section of al-Aqsa Mosque near the al-Maghariba Gate. Although the wall is an Islamic endowment, the Jews have been trying since the end of the nineteenth century to control it, claiming that it is a remnant of the temple, but they failed. After the British Mandate in 1917, Jews began to gather in masses in an attempt to hold control over the Wall area, which led to the Buraq Uprising in 1929, which was basically a revolution to defend the Wall from Judaization, which resulted in the birth of an international commission of inquiry that issued in 1930 a decision stating that Muslims have the right to the Wall. But after the 1967 June War and the occupation of the eastern part of Jerusalem by the Israeli Occupation Forces, the Occupation Authority took control over the wall area and demolished the adjacent Mughrabi Quarter and worked to Judaize and completely change the features of the place.

Nearly every sentence is a lie, starting with the description of Jews whose families had lived in Jerusalem for centuries as "Jewish pilgrims." 

Jews never called it the Wailing Wall - that was a Christian thing. 

The Jews never "failed" in identifying it as a retaining wall of the Temple. (The commission of inquiry mentioned said in no uncertain terms that "The Wailing Wall forms an integral part of the western exterior shell of the Harem-esh-Sherif which itself is the site of the ancient Jewish temples, at the present day supplanted by Moslem Mosques.")

 Jews gathered there way before the Balfour Declaration. 

The 1929 pogroms against Jews were pure antisemitism and had nothing to do with the Kotel except as an excuse - what did the massacres in Hebron have to do with the Wall? 

And of course Jerusalem was always Jewish, and had a Jewish majority a century before the Six Day War in 1967.

Even the source is bogus. This photo comes from the Matson Collection at the Library of Congress.

The International Council of Museums has a code of ethics that says, "Museums should ensure that the information they present in displays and exhibitions is well-founded, accurate and gives appropriate consideration to represented groups or beliefs."

This is only one egregious violation of that code.

The Palestine Museum is a propaganda museum.
