(The Temple Mount – Flash90)
For the third morning in a row, Arabs rioted on the Temple Mount, attempting to attack groups of Jews who sought to visit the holiest site in Judaism during the Sukkot holiday. Police again Thursday deployed large numbers of officers to keep the Arabs from attacking the Jews.
Police have reported that there were mild protests during recent days, but video footage showed dozens of young Arabs actively trying to attack Jews who were visiting the Mount. In one video, a Wakf official is seen threatening to break the camera of a Jew filming footage of the Arab rioters.
Earlier in the week, Arutz Sheva reported on a large Arab riot that greeted Jews who attempted to visit the Temple Mount on the first day of Chol Hamo'ed, the intermediate days of Sukkot. “When we went up on the Temple Mount, we were greeted with cries of ‘Allah is Great,’” said Asaf Fried, one of the members of a group that visited the Mount Tuesday. “The police again did nothing, even towards the end of the visit when the Arabs really came close to us and blocked our exit, shouting, 'We will expel the Jews in blood and fire and will butcher Jews.' The police still did nothing,” and the group of Jews escaped without harm, Fried said.
During the rioting, police arrested five Arabs for attacking a police officer. One Jewish worshipper was detained as well, police said, for failing to listen to their instructions. On Tuesday, police arrested Likud activist Moshe Feiglin, along with another Israeli, for attempting to pray at the site. On Wednesday, Rabbi Yehuda Leibman, director of the Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva was taken into custody for allegedly praying at Judaism's holiest site. Later in the day, 87-year-old Dr. Menachem Ben-Yashar, a long-time activist for Jewish rights on the Mount was arrested. Also detained was Elyashiv Sherlo, son of Rabbi Yuval Sherlo, head of the Petach Tikva yeshiva.
Jewish activists once again called on police to learn how to respond more effectively to Arab riots, and to establish a procedure at the Temple Mount similar to that at the Machpelah Cave – allowing Jews access to the site, at least on Jewish holidays.

Well, I know what I intend to do next visit to the Temple Mount. I'll pray…again! Let's all pile something bad on the grave of Moshe Dayan, the lecherous louse we have to thank for giving the Muslims back the site of the first and second Temple.
You have Moshe Dayan and the other heroes of the Haganah and the IDF to thank that there is an Israel to quarrel with the Arabs over access to the Temple Mount, you ingrate. He spent his entire life working for the establishment and preservation of the State of Israel.
I am aware of ALL of Dayan's history.
When I wsas praying at the Kotel during ukkot several years ago, I had my collarbone broken by a stone hulred at me from atop the Temple Mount by some Arabs rioting there at the time. They never seem to change tactics, do they?
I wish the Israelis would just take the Temple back.
Shame on the Israeli police and the Israeli government for their timidity in confronting Arab terrorists, usurpers and defilers of the Jewish people's most holy space. How can Israel expect the world to recognize Israel as a Jewish state when the Israeli government turns a blind eye to Arab desecration of the Jewish people's most holy religious site situated, as it is, in Israel's capital city of Jerusalem?? A shame and a disgrace!!
Make no mistake, the Islamists FEAR our prayers. Shema Yisrael.. pray pray pray!!!
PIG EARS AND FEET ARE FALLING ON THE MOUNT NOW. QIUCK BLOW IT UP FOR THE SAKE OF ALLAH.
