Israel orders closure of disputed Jerusalem ramp (AP)

FILE - in this Thursday, Dec. 8, 2011 file photo, a pedestrian walkway, known as the Mughrabi Bridge, right, leading to the Al Aqsa Mosque compound, known by the Jews as the Temple Mount, is seen in Jerusalem's Old city. Israeli authorities have ordered the closure of a pedestrian walkway in Jerusalem's Old City that has become a flashpoint for competing religious and political claims. Jerusalem municipality spokesman Stephan Miller said Monday the temporary ramp is dangerous and the city engineer ordered it closed. Palestinians and Jordan dispute Israel's right to carry out any work around the compound, and the ramp's replacement has been repeatedly delayed because of fears of violence.
