International Relations
Why might controversy over this site cause problems
internationally?
The most significant issue with regard to the Temple
Mount/Dome of the Rock is that any controversy with the
site tends to negatively impact international relations in
the area. In 2010, Arab scholars released a study
declaring that the Western Wall was not part of the holy
Jewish temple at all, but part of the al-Aqsa Mosque. The
US State Department called the study "factually incorrect,
insensitive, and highly provocative."
O The city of Jerusalem is under American
protection
O Other countries want the opportunity to take control
of Jerusalem.
People around the world care about places of
religious importance.

importance of the site.

the vast majority of ballots have been counted nearly two weeks after one of the biggest political upsets in modern u.s. history catapulted donald trump to the presidency.

estimates show more than 58 percent of eligible voters went to the polls during the 2016 election, nearly breaking even with the turnout rate set during the last presidential election in 2012, even as the final tallies in states like california continue to be calculated, according to statistics collected by the u.s. elections project.

but among those figures were stark contrasts in key states that swing the election to trump — in ohio, wisconsin, iowa, michigan and elsewhere — indicating the president-elect’s leap from long-shot candidate to the most powerful political position in the world may have happened in part because of apathy toward hillary clinton’s candidacy, especially among the democratic base, several political scientists and organizations monitoring voter turnout told the pbs newshour.

while clinton is leading the popular vote by more than 1.5 million over trump as of sunday, she trails president obama’s 2012 totals by more than 2 million ballots — a chasm that may have cost her the election, said david becker, co-founder of the center for election and innovation and research.

“several million voters didn’t come out to vote,” becker said. “which is telling me that this idea of the trump wave, a huge number of voters shifting over to trump, is certainly not the story.”
