QOTD

It is unacceptable that Muslims can ascend the Mount 24 hours a day, while Jews' freedom of worship is limited, after touring the Mount with a police escort, and under the watchful eyes of Muslim Wakf representatives... It was very exciting to visit the Temple Mount, on Tisha B'Av, the day of mourning for the Temple Mount. I received the impression that freedom of worship is fully implemented toward the Muslims... They can enter the Mount 24 hours a day, from nine gates. Whereas the Jews can only enter from one gate, under severe restrictions. Religious Jews, who wear kippahs, can only ascend the Mount in groups of fifteen people, with police escort, and they are forbidden from praying on the Mount. Secular [Jews] or tourists, on the other hand, can ascend freely
