Or is it just "Bibleland" with some religously important attractions but no one single very important site in particular?

I know that the angel Gabriel brought Mohammad to the Temple of Soloman then Mount of Olives before taking him to see Jesus Christ who told Mohammad that He was going to make Mohammad his �mouthpiece� and speak through him conveying the text of the Koran.
But why is Jerusalem so important to Christians?
Mohammed ascended into heaven at the Temple of the Golden Dome, which is why jerusalem is important to muslims. He received his visions and prophecy in arabia and never claimed to have met jesus as god

Further, Mohammad did receive his orative communication through Christ as "His mouthpiece" which is of course the content of the Koran.

The "Mount of Olives" is where Christ will return to end the complete destruction of Man by man. It is sacred because it is THE most "Holy" land, place, on the planet. It is also where the Third temple will be built as soon as the true "abomination" (the dome thing) is destroyed. Under that "dome" is where Abraham almost sacrificed Issac. Muslim claims are basically a complete "LIE". The dome was built many, many, many years after Mohamed crawled this earth.

C\'mon Doc, you\'re going to have to produce some kind of proof for this. I\'ve never found anywhere in the bible that has any sort of reference as to exactly where Abraham was. Nor have I ever read anywhere in Revalations about exaclty where christ is to return. Whatcha got? Sources?
Zec 14:4 On that day his feet shall stand on the Mount of Olives which lies before Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives shall be split in two from east to west by a very wide valley; so that one half of the Mount shall withdraw northward, and the other half southward.

Zec 14:4
It is built over the rock on the Temple Mount where it was believed that Abraham was prepared to sacrifice his son Isaac in obedience to the command of the Lord (Gen. 22)

Now, if you read Revelation you will see why it is so important to us Christians. Specifically the building of the Temple of Solomon. Other than that, we aren't going to fight for it as our homeland. That is all i have to say.
