The Temple Mount Faithful have once again petitioned the Supreme Court for permission to hold a Tisha B\'Av prayer service alongside the gates of the holy site. The day of Tisha B\'Av, this coming Sunday, is one of national mourning for the destruction of the two Holy Temples on that very site, 2,000 and 2,500 years ago respectively. The police object to the service, in fear of strong Arab reactions. In early April, the Supreme Court rejected a more grandiose request by the Temple Mount Faithful to be allowed to pray on the Temple Mount during the upcoming Passover holiday. The judges at the time accepted the government position that riots could result if such permission were granted to the Jews. The Prime Minister\'s Office announced at the time that Sharon had instructed the security forces to \"find the way to allow Jews to enter the site.\"
