Removal of the Dome of the Rock for the purposes of rebuilding the Temple is unlikely as the exact location of the Holy of Holies is unknown and observant Jews would not run the risk of treading on that ground accidentally.

Nothing a little Henna couldn't accomplish. Does the carpet match the drapes?

I don't know about that. After all, the Jews rebuilt the Temple at least once (and I think more) in the OT.
And, I suspect, observant Jews have already figured out where the Holy of Holies has to have been -- from the veeerrrrryyyy!!!! detailed instructions provided in the Bible.
At any rate, I suspect they've figured out a way to avoid the problem. The heifer-based purification in Numbers 19 is part of the solution.

The A-Rabs have been excavating under the Dome of the Rok for several years. Jews have complained that their archeological history is being systematically removed and destroyed. Recently, structural cracks have begun to appear. There are grave concerns that the entire structure is near collapse.
That said, should it collapse, there would be an "opening" to build a new structure...perhaps a New Temple???

They said on "Politics and Religion" tonight that the Jews are going to build next to the Dome of the Rock. The Arabs will not be removed.
