Netanyahu orders Jewish MK's not to enter the Temple Mount.

      The bravado by some Israeli's is breathtaking. It appears Bibi hasn't lost all his senses. He remembers all too well how the Al-Aksa Mosque has been the trigger point on many violent confrontations. Back in 1996 under his watch, hundreds died and Israel unloaded over 1.3 million rounds of bullets in a week or so after Palestinians learned of plans to tunnel underneath the mosque. Then of course the infamous visit by Sharon that lead to the second intifadah should be fresh in the mind of Netanyahu and Israeli's. Sadly, that Mosque has been a flash point to many confrontations over the decades. I personally think the decision to ban Jewish MK's is flawed. It doesn't address the underlying issue that the city is divided despite rhetoric to the contrary by some Israeli's. A comprehensive solution is needed in the most urgent way.
