Jews wailing at that wall when the Temple is right next to them, waiting for them to rebuild it...
I don't think that Israel as a whole greeted "Osama" Obama too warmly, except for some of Israel's notorious left wing media. The visits with the government officials were more protocol than anything else. Judging from the expression on former PM Netanyahu's face in a photo he took with Obama, it doesn't seem that he looked too happy about it.
Wow, that is really some gall to put up campaign banners - and barricades - at at the Wailing Wall! I would consider it bordering on desecration of a holy site.
Do you know of a link that can be used? DO you know anyone who could have it put on and then distributed?
The rebuilding of the Bayit is a complicated issue. Some say only Mashiach can do this after exterminating `Amaleq (reflecting the ancient Jewish commandments to 1)choose a king, 2)exterminate `Amaleq, and 3)build the First Temple). I don't know. I'm confused and not even remotely qualified to "pontificate" (if you will pardon the term) on the subject.
I only know things can't continue on much longer the way they're going now. We're going to have to come to 'Acharit HaYamim sometime.
Maybe the prophet Daniel was slightly mistranslated and there's an "o" not an "a" in "Abomination of Desolation."
That’s Rabbinism adapting Judaism to the harsh reality of exile & powerlessness. Now we’re not in exile anymore. HaShem brought us into the promised land & the rest is up to us. Praying to HaShem to fulfill our wishes is not Judaism - that’s superstition. “He who makes his prayer a fixed task, his prayer is not a genuine supplication.”
Rebuild the Temple, the rest will come naturally. Extermination of ‘Amaleq, etc.
I believe it was on Drudge last night. Do a search for Druedge and you should come up with the thread.

I know that you are a Noahide, but I still want to make the point that Jews are to be a nation of priests, all of us. We don’t need permissions of poseqim to act.
Who knows? It wasn’t in English originally..
