Reasonable. Even if it WAS in Ethiopia, do you think Israel wouldn’t have pulled an “Entebbe” years ago and brought it back to Jerusalem?

Doubtful.
For one, a pagan shrine sits on the Temple mount.
For two, much of Israel does not want the Temple (secularists) or does not consider the rebuilding of the Temple to be appropriate without the Mosiach (a plurality of Orthodox).
For three, there are rather extreme rules and regulations regarding transport of the Ark. Ask poor Uzzah, who meant well.
