Temple Mount: Temple Mount Faithful
built 642 days ago
In recent weeks, Jewish radical groups have staged protests near the Temple Mount, threatening violence if Israel gives up the site. The group "Temple Mount Faithful" was prevented by Israeli police from entering the site for prayer and filed a new High Court petition. Jan van der Hoeven of the International Christian Zionist Center told Newsroom that the center is trying to "rally international Christian support" for Jerusalem Mayor Ehud Olmert and former Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu, who strongly oppose negotiating the Mount's status.
Smith was ... full of praise for the Jewish zealots of the Temple Mount Faithful, and their founder, Goldfoot: "Do you want a real radical?" he asked. "Try Stanley Goldfoot. He's a wonder. His plan for the Temple Mount is to take sticks of dynamite and some M-16s and blow the Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosques and just lay claim to the site."

The Antiquities Authority claims that the Waqf, before trucking and discarding remains from under the Temple Mount last week, removed specially-engraved stones and additional findings. The claim is included in the Authority's response to a Supreme Court petition submitted by Chai VeKayam and the Temple Mount Faithful, demanding official supervision over the Waqf's evacuation of the remains. The groups ... demand that the Waqf's illegal construction at the holy site be halted immediately.

A group of religious Jews attempt to place a cornerstone for a Third Temple on Temple Mount. Every year, Gershon Salomon applies for the necessary permits from the Israeli government. Every year, his group is refused permission. Salomon's group, known as the Temple Mount Faithful, carries the four-ton cornerstone as close as they are allowed to go.
On Oct. 16, Israeli police turned back members of the Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement, as they attempted to enter the Dome of the Rock to anoint the cornerstone of a Third Temple. It was an extraordinary provocation, given that, for the previous 17 days, the Israeli military and police had been waging a round-the-clock shooting war against Palestinian protesters, armed mostly with stones. Dozens of Arab demonstrators had already been killed, and Jerusalem was about to explode in religious warfare.
