Israel controls the Old City, but the Temple Mount was handed back to Muslim control when the shooting had barely stopped back in 1967. Tell me if I’m wrong.

That’s why it’s dangerous for Jews to set foot in it to this day.

I think you're wrong.

I don't go up to the Temple Mount, but I'm pretty sure the IDF (or Israeli Police) patrol it and enforce rules established by the Muslim Waqf. As for danger, one of my cousins was discussing walking around up there (more than once). He didn't indicate that he had any problems. You just cannot pray or appear to be praying.

A man cowers on the ground as Israeli police officers run during clashes with Palestinians by the Dome of the Rock Mosque in the Al Aqsa Mosque. Muslim groups said a sacred agreement was broken and over 1000 Jews visited the site
