Doctors at the Sha'arei Tzedek Medical Center in Jerusalem are fighting to save the life of leading Temple Mount activist Yehuda Glick, the director of the hospital, Professor Yonatan Halevi, said on Wednesday night.
In a brief statement outside the hospital, Halevi told reporters that Glick, who was shot outside the Begin Heritage center in the capital, was in the operating room and that a senior doctor was conducting the operation.
He added that Glick is suffering from serious wounds in the chest and in the stomach and that his life is still in danger, but noted that Glick’s condition is stable and has improved since he reached the hospital.
The Temple Mount is Judaism's holiest site, but under pressure from Islamist groups including the Jordanian-run Waqf Islamic trust, Jews are forbidden to worship there under pain of arrest.
Glick has been an ardent opponent of the current status quo on the Mount, which Jewish groups have condemned as discriminatory.

Ping!
Just ten days ago Glick’s Facebook page showed a swastika vandals had painted on the Temple Mount, which of course Glick strongly condemned. http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3217130/posts
Prayers up for Yehuda Glick!
The Temple Mount has been ordered closed to Jews and Arabs: Times of Israel.
Arutz Sheva: “Jewish Home chairman, Minister Naftali Bennett, said the shooting ‘is crossing a red line of blood. Security is not brought with words but with deeds, and I call on the Prime Minister to restore the sovereignty of Israel and its capital immediately.’”
It’s time for Israel to belatedly reverse Moshe Dayan’s stupid decision to gift oversight of the Temple Mount to the Arabs.
Good for him. And prayers for Mr. Glick.
This could touch off some difficult times. But Bibi is no chicken guano. Pray for Israel.
Palestinian pieces of crap have said that they will target Jews by running them over in their cars and targeting anyone in Jerusalem..of course this is probably backed by Obama
Eyewitness: “thick Arab accent” gunman on a motorcycle. Note: Glick was born in the US and his family made aliyah when he was a child.
He sure isn’t. And I am praying for Israel.
Racial profiling: It might offend people, but...hey.
The temple WILL be rebuilt ... when I know not, but prophesy says it will be.
Ditto!
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
