By Nadav Shragai, Haaretz Correspondent: Ultra-Orthdox prohibition on entering Temple Mount splinters
Talkback
Title:Frontal assault
Name:Avi Yerushalmi
City: State:
We not yet ready for a frontal assault on Islam. The country is too secular for such a move. Therefore we have to wait a while before we freely visit the Temple mount. This messianic fervor of the religious right is misplaced. We are a state closer to the secular revolutions of ninteenth century Europe than the beginning of Redemption. Mashiach has not come.
