Jews assaulted on Temple Mount by Wakf on 9th of Av
A group of Jews who ascended the Temple Mount on Tisha b'Av (the 9th day of the Jewish month of Av) were assaulted by members of the Wakf, the Muslim religious guard that controls day-to-day affairs on the Mount. Jewish Leadership’ Likud faction leader Moshe Feiglin led a group onto the Temple Mount for their monthly ascent today, the 9th of Av. They were berated by a Moslem woman, who was joined by members of the WAKF who assaulted the visitors after they attempted to photograph the woman. The police urged the Jewish visitors to leave the premises quickly.If only the government would listen.... The problem is that it is always the Jews who are expected to turn tail and leave.
Feiglin responded, ”The government cannot give up the Temple Mount. This will undermine our presence in the Negev and Galillee, and even on Tel Aviv’s Rothschild Avenue.”
