An English-speaking Jewish man was arrested this week for merely quoting a portion of scripture while standing atop Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.
Police accused the man of praying, and rejected protests by himself and those around him that quoting scripture is not the same as praying.
Israeli authorities are so afraid of offending and sparking Muslim violence that they have acquiesced to Sharia Law atop the Temple Mount, meaning Jews and Christians are forbidden to take any religious action there.
