Why the lyre? I’m asked. After all, I was a piano and keyboard player for many years. It’s not like suddenly I woke up one day and said, “I think I’ll play the lyre!”.......

A bulldozer is careening around the Temple Mount in Jerusalem ripping up earth on the Temple Mount, at the Dome of the Rock platform. It slashed a long gash, purportedly to lay new electric cables. With crude, damaging handling, it exposed a largely gray deposit, which according to archeologists is a sure-fire indication of "archeologically significant" matter. Islamic authorities have been caught red-handed destroying Temple-era antiquities and what's believed to be a section of an outer wall of the Second Jewish Temple.

The time to act has come. I am asking that you copy and paste this letter and send it to your friends, acquaintences, and organizations, Jewish and Christian alike, regarding efforts to stop the destruction on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Enough is enough.

A group of 150 Israeli citizens, which represent a broad cross section of the Israeli public, have initiated an unprecedented criminal prosecution of WAQF (Islamic trust) leaders in Jerusalem - alleging that they have engaged in the deliberate destruction of ancient Jewish relics on the Temple Mount.

This is another project that I am working on. It really compliments the music effort, just using a different approach. This is the press release for SoulCoin.
