As far as I know Muslims (or anyone else) are allowed entry anywhere, including the Western Wall. It's all part of the same complex, since it was the original site of the Jewish temple before the Romans destroyed it in 70AD. After the Muslims conquered the Holy Land in 637 A.D. they built their...

Oops, my bad. I didn't notice that you were asking about the Western Wall. I thought you were talking about the Temple Mount. It's a common misconception (conspiracy theory) that Israel is trying to prevent Muslims from praying at their holy place, so I auto-read it as though you were asking...

In a nutshell, Israel prevents JEWS from praying on the Temple Mount. It is under control of the Muslim Waqf and only Muslims can pray there. Just FYI. "Jewish prayer on Temple Mount is completely forbidden. Jews may enter only to visit the place, and only at limited times. Muslims are free to...

Good article, though I don't agree with the term 'id'. 'Id' implies a lack of rationality. 'Heart' would be more like it. Dreamer, perhaps, dreamer on a grand scale, and with the capacity to make those dreams come true.

Incidentally, when people gang up like that on those who voice an opinion they don't want to hear, when they tolerate no dissent, it makes me question the quality of their investment advice. Reasoned critique makes me value a person more. Mob behavior makes me question everything.

It's good to see such a rational discussion - on such a weird thread, oddly enough! I tried to say stuff along these lines and was called a troll. Yup. Right. There's a level of paranoia that's gone too far. You can't blame everything on the shorts, annoying and disruptive as they are...

I haven't watched TV for at least 10 years. This is the main Tesla site I read. This and Twitter. I don't follow any short sellers. My POV changed because Elon did something not right here, IN MY OPINION. And I feel disillusioned, and I fear for the future of the whole thing.

That's how I feel. Furthermore, I think that might be how many non fans see it. Can I express an opinion about this without being called a troll? It's highly offensive.

Can I PM you my Twitter account, but we'll keep it private?

It's 'doth'. No, not too much. I joined this forum a few days ago because Tesla has been my major passion for years but I've never had anyone to talk to about it except uninterested parties, who thought my interest amusing and a bit ...strange. They didn't get it. After The Tweet I spent a...

(I'm trying this for the third time). It doesn't work like that. You can't simply undo this mess. "Oh, never mind". Nope. When he suddenly tweeted about taking Tesla private, it was a bombshell. Apparently, not only to us, but to his board (though of course I don't know that for certain). This...

My post was not written in the thread and doesn't belong here.

Already replied but I don't see the post for some reason so sorry if this will appear twice. No, you can't just dial things back like that. Elon stirred up this mess for no reason. He tarnished Tesla's reputation by seeking a partnership with SA. He acted in a manner that raises doubt even...

Loss of confidence. Unnecessary turmoil that wears down even the most ardent supporters. News of a distasteful partner, to put it mildly, with which some of us do not want to be associated, and with potentially malevolent intentions. Fatigue. A sense of loss of purpose.

Ah, I see. Yes, I see what you're saying. Makes sense. I find it troubling, though, that so many on this forum are not bothered at all, even mocking me for saying this. I would have thought there'd be more outcry here.
