Control the Temple Mount, or Lose Control of Israel

By MK Moshe Feiglin

“Without control over the Temple Mount, Israel will lose its control over the rest of the Land,” said MK Moshe Feiglin after visiting the Mount on Sunday morning. “Even saying that Jewish return to the Temple Mount provokes violence encourages Arab violence. Pointing an accusing finger – even indirectly – at the victims of the violence instead of a wholehearted determined effort to deal with the perpetrators, empowers the terrorists. It shows the side from which the would-be assassin came that violence pays; it encourages continued murderousness.”

“This morning on the Mount,” Feiglin continued,  “I was surrounded by police security, while the Arabs were free to walk about. That is just one more way to see who feels at home on the Mount and who feels like an intruder. With G-d’s help, we will change that status quo,” he concluded.
