The Temple Mount -- Still a flashpoint


Recommended Posts

I was there a couple of years ago and at that time armed guards prevented a group of Orthodox Jewish people from accessing the Mosque level.

 

i was kneeling down to take a photo of the Mosque shooting up and I was asked what I was doing and told to stand up. I only realized later he mistakenly thought I was praying.

The guards have a strange responsibility.  In their place, I would not know how to stop people from praying. Or prevent prayer.  Prayer Patrol?  They have to first detect prayer, then stop it.  These orders are beyond absurd.
