Turkey to inspect Jerusalem work
The Israeli prime minister is on a two-day visit to Turkey
Turkey is to send an inspection team to survey excavation work being carried out near the Temple Mount or Haram al-Sharif in East Jerusalem.
The decision came as the Israeli and Turkish prime ministers held talks in the Turkish capital, Ankara.
The work on an ancient mound near Jerusalem's holiest site has caused widespread anger in the Muslim world.
Israel is now showing the work live on the internet in a bid to calm Muslim fears the site is being damaged.

[Good idea for Turkey and Israel. Maybe Olmert can resurrect his career...]
