Haredim Increasingly Visit Har HaBayit

As mentioned, the numbers of haredim who ascend har HaByit, with the level of tahara, purity, required for Har Habayit (not for the azara) are slowly increasing.

Yesterday, the first day of Rosh Chodesh Iyar, a group of 25 haredim went up to Har HaBayit. Kikar has the story with video.

In the article, someone is quoted as saying that the policeman in charge of allowing people up, Motti, was very rude to them, made them wait outside in the heat, screamed at them, etc. That is standard fare for Motti. he allows the groups of Christians from Germany and elsewhere to pass through quickly, while he always makes the Jews wait a while before letting us through. he also screams fairly often, and threatens regularly. In his defense, he is in charge of a very sensitive issue, but his demeanor is really not becoming on most days.
