Israeli police closed the Temple Mount Sunday after Jewish visitors to the Mount—which is Judaism’s holiest site and the exact spot of the events of the Hanukkah holiday—broke out into Hanukkah songs, enraging Muslim worshipers.

Following the song, a scuffle broke out between Jews and Muslims. Four people were arrested.

Police have decided to close the Mount to all visitors until further notice. …

enraging Muslim worshipers. ....

Of course Muz think nothing of polluting every place within earshot with the screechy wail of their mussein call to prayer .

Every Jew in Israel , including visitors , should be issued Uzi’s and a mandatory carry permit

They have every right to sing on the Temple Mount. G_D wants His people to sing on the temple Mount. Muslims can go sing in Mecca

The Jews have all of the furniture and implements needed to begin sacrificial worship ready to go.

Daniel's 70th Week needs to commence in order to rebuild the Temple.

Bible prophecy will be fulfilled. Fear not.

I’ve heard rumors of materials stockpiled to rebuild the Temple ever since the 1967 Six Day War.

Wish they’d just do it. But that would require the obliteration of the Dome of the Rock & Al Aqsa mosques.

I’d be honored & happy to push the detonator switches on both.

Never mind singing, first legalize the ban on audible noise and ritual objects to the site...even muttering a prayer by Jews is now subject to expulsion by Israeli police. Is the Temple Mount even mentioned in the Koran ? The entire premise is completely untenable.

Islam conquered the Mount and lost it. Too bad. Why is the UN and the world enslaved to Islam? Is this the religion of the Anti-Christ?

It does give you a rosey glow doesn’t it.

Too bad the police didn’t arrest the muslims and
tell them to come back on a muslim holiday.

It’s a shame that they don’t have you making and enforcing the rules.

It is a shame.

But as my old boss used to say, “I only I were emporer”.
I always replied that I would shoot him before that
ever happened.

Before even that: find out why the ban on Jewish prayer is maintained no matter which party is in power. Is there an Israeli political party which vows to allow Jewish prayer on the Temple Mount?

Not as easy as it would seem.

The secular Jewish establishment does not want any surge of Jewish religious fervor.

A large group of traditional religious authorities want little to do with Temple Mount when it is under secular or Muslim control.

The average Israeli probably doesn’t think it’s worth the time or money.

That leaves a fairly small slice of traditional Jews who wholeheartedly support the secular state and are willing to take control of the Temple Mount in a practical way.

Manhigut Yehudit led by Moshe Feiglin would seem the party most likely to attempt to exert control over the Temple Mount.
