Bracing for possible violence, Jerusalem police will be on the highest state of alert Sunday on the Temple Mount, barring both a group of Jewish ultra-nationalists and Arab men from entering the bitterly contested holy site due to fear that an altercation between the two sides at the compound will send the country spiraling into violence.

"Any infringement of the sanctity of the mosque will lead to the region blowing up because of its status in the eyes of Muslims," said the Sheikh of al-Azhar in Cairo, Muhammad Tantawi.
The death cult jihadists of Hamas & the other Arab/Muslim terrorist groups are looking for any excuse to continue their reign of terrorism against Israel.
Abu Yussef (R), a spokesman of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, and an unidentified Islamic Jihad spokesman hold a press conference in Gaza City. Arab-Islamic terrorist groups warned that violence would explode across the region if a group of orthodox Jews tries to make good on threats to descend on Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa mosque compound on Sunday. The 'Al-Aqsa mosque' sits on the very site of the old Jewish Temple.

Round up, or kill the islamists. Ship the survivors into the Sinai, where it was good enough for the Jews for forty years. Any wishing to remain in Israel must swear a loyalty oath to the Jewish state.
No Arab state in Eretz Yisrael.
EVER!
