Riunione di rabbini, ieri sera, come già preventivato, dietro l’invito del Temple Institute. E tra i presenti, alcuni degli esponenti di rilievo della destra israeliana, soprattutto di quella religiosa. La battaglia attorno alla Spianata delle Moschee, al Recinto Sacro, ha segnato un altro appuntamento.
During a rightist event held in Jerusalem Sunday evening, just hours after Muslims rioted in and around the Temple Mount amid reports that Jewish extremists were planning to visit the site, Professor Hillel Weiss said, “The (third) temple must be built now. The mosques do not have to be destroyed in order for us to do this.” (da Ynet)
Nei fatti, significa la hebronizzazione di Gerusalemme. E il comunicato emesso dai rabbini delle colonie in Cisgiordania è ancora più netto: Yesha Rabbinical Council releases a statement calling Israeli authorities to completely bar Arabs from Temple Mount, as they “turn the Jewish people’s holiest site into a hub of terror and violence. “The Yesha rabbis, who are at the forefront of worshipers arriving at Temple Mount urges all rabbis and the entire people of Israel to join them and attend the convention meant to bolster Jewish presence at the compound,” said the statement.
