That decision is only made at a higher, more divine paygrade.<br /><br />On the other hand, it is a matter of recorded fact that "Reform Judaism" is officially on record as attaching no importance to the future material disposition of the Temple Mount. They've already said on record, multiple times, that their goals do NOT include rebuilding "The" Temple.<br /><br />Which is fine. They have as much right to feel that way, as hareidim do to feel that the size, shape, and type of fur on a black hat are of deadly importance.<br /><br />Now, let us suppose that the "Reform Jews" stated that they have no interest in the future material disposition of the (say for example) Sistine Chapel.<br /><br />Now what can be said when they start publishing opinions and suggestions about the future material disposition of the Sistine Chapel?<br /><br />But you see, Y.Medad.... you have only yourself to blame. You insist on defining your tribal ethnic-identity as "Jewish". So don't complain to me when you find yourself verbally attacked by parasites whose claim to entering your bio-system is that they are "Jewish".<br /><br />Mahmoud Abbas spoke with some (unintended) wisdom when he said that Israelis might be better off re-defining the country to be a "Hebrew Republic."<br /><br />Doing so would at least clear the decks for denying a teudat-oleh to clowns like Rick Jacobs.Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160350570530717935noreply@blogger.com
