Most of my readers know my opinion on going up to Har Ha'bayis.....
A Frum Jew that has a Rav that says it's ok ... should absolutely go up ....and there are plenty of serious rabbanim, talmeidei chachamim, that allow it ... the Rambam went up and in fact he wrote a letter to his family on the day he stood on Har Habayis.. Another Rishon, the Meeri also wrote that one can go up to the Har Habayis... and the gemarrah itself records that Rebbe Akiva went up to the Har Habayis after the churban. ...
Why give sovereignty of this holy place to the arabs?
The UN ruled and the Obama/Biden administration abstained at that vote, that the Kotel doesn't belong to the Jewish people...
we must actively show that the Kotel and the Har Habyis belong to us and we are not relinquishing it to some murderers.
For those who are worried about "tumah" ... I am more concerned that there is a "tumedike" mosque on its site.. every single day, every second of the day.....
Of course we cannot remove it now, but we shouldn't remove frum Jews that want to pay homage to our holy mountain either..
Tomorrow, Tuesday a few hundred heimishe and yeshivisha families will quietly go up to the Har Habyis with the blessings of many rabbanim.....
If you feel you shouldn't go then stay home, don't musser those who have a heter from their Rav...
As we all know that there are frum chassidim today that say that you are not allowed to go to the Kotel.....let them daven on Rodney Street..
Jewish visitors to the Temple Mount, once a rare sight, has become commonplace, with the number of Jews visiting the holy site surging by several hundred percent in recent years.
Data on the annual number of Jewish visitors to the Temple Mount shows a consistent upward trend.
