The wall has its own committee that ensures that it will never come under harm. Under Israeli governance the wall is protected fiercely as a national treasure and a sacred place that takes priority when it comes to defense. Jews believe that the wall survives because God wants it to. The fact that the Western Wall is still standing after centuries of wars, is a fact that is not lost on true believers. Jerusalem has been conquered over forty times since written historical records have been kept and the area has had 100 wars fought in the area. The symbolic “ winning of the wall” between opposing sides of various disputes and wars was always a critical gain for whichever side “won” it. Up until 1967, the wall was often part of the struggle of who would occupy the region. The “ Western Wall” has always been a symbol of the strife in the region. Men and women are separated at the wall, there is a section for men and a section for women. It is a very touching site to see such true believers’ centuries later lament over their lost temples. Jews come to the site to mourn the loss of the temples. It is a moving experience to visit a spot that is so historically significant to one of the largest religious organizations in the wall. The site of the wall is so overwhelming to many Jewish people that they find themselves weeping as they pray hence the term the “ Wailing Wall” coined by Christians that witnessed the fervor and the wailing. There are over one million notes collected annually by keepers of the wall. Many people that visit the wall leave notes tucked in the stone addressed to God and pray fervently that the temple will return to the spot.
On many Jewish holidays and holy days of obligation, the square can be packed with pilgrims that vie to stand close to the wall and lament the loss of the temples and the struggle that ensued the people of Israel. The square sets aside areas to pray to visitors. The wall today faces a large square in the middle of Old Jerusalem.
