Continued Bardawil: “The problem is that Obama, in spite of the fact that we feel that these feelings are sincere and true vis-à-vis Netanyahu, he [never] translated these emotions against Netanyahu to actions on the ground in order to change the situation … which shows the decision-making center is not exclusively in the hands of the president but in the hands of the whole American establishment that judges that Israel is in the strategic interests of the United States.”
Moshe Feiglin: Jews Will Return To Temple Mount
An Israeli legislator who made news for visiting Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque compound declared on “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” on New York’s AM 970 The Answer that the Jewish people will return to the Temple Mount, currently in Muslim hands.
“No one will be able to stop that momentum of Jews coming back to their homeland, coming back to the city of Jerusalem and coming back, of course, to the heart of the heart of the nation, to the Temple Mount,” exclaimed MP Moshe Feiglin.
Feiglin, who also serves as deputy Knesset speaker, explained the political and religious significance of the Mount in the Israeli-Arab dispute. “The Arabs have a very sensitive spiritual understanding, and they understand that this connection to the Temple Mount, that actually there is a bottom line and the real answer of who this land belongs to,” Feiglin said.
“The story here is not about religion. It’s also about religion. But the real story here is about sovereignty,” Feiglin added. “[The Arabs] understand that if a Jewish kid will pray on the Temple Mount, that means it will show the deep connection of the Jewish nation to the place and…end the debate of who the city, who the mountain, who the land belongs to.”
