Following this morning's (Wednesday) incident in which MK Basel Ghattas (Joint List) entered the Temple Mount, Knesset speaker Yuli Edelstein (Likud) warned legislators against taking similar actions.
MK Edelstein explained that going to the Temple Mount is likely to seriously damage the security situation. "I a confident that, in this situation, we must all act responsibly and do all we can to calm the situation and restore personal security to all the country's citizens, even at the price of self-restraint and temporarily waiving our rights to enter the Temple Mount," he wrote.
