But Frankel conceded it may take more than debate of Jewish law, or halacha, to alter centuries of tradition in favor of a compromise by which Jews would agree to build a temple nearby, not in the spot traditionally regarded as the correct site -- right where the Dome has stood since the 7th century.

Since when were the written Torah and the Tanakh demoted to a matter of "tradition"?

Interesting that no one dares suggest the Muslims seek a “holy revelation” to move their Dome of the Rock.

Invitations to Thursday's launch conference depict a sunlit imagined future for the area Jews call Temple Mount. Happy Muslims and harp-playing Jews mingle between the Dome of the Rock and a new Temple, as Christians walk over from the nearby Sepulchre Church, traditional site of Jesus's resurrection.

This isn't "imagination." It's delusional. It's sick. It's insane. It's surreal. It's lunacy. And besides that, it's ridiculous and embarrassing!
Happy Muslims and harp-playing Jews?

Not in this life.
