League of Nations commission on the Western Wall (1930)
A commission set up by the League of Nations Council on 14 January 1930 after the August 1929 disturbances over the Western Wall of the Haram al-Sharif, to settle Muslim and Jewish claims there; three non-British members led by former Swedish foreign minister Eliel Lofgren. It sat in Jerusalem in June and July 1930 and its unanimous decision of December 1930 held the wall part of the Haram and Muslim waqf property, and kept the status quo for Jewish worship there. Imara's book reprints the report and reads it as proof of Muslim ownership; the reading is the book's own.
