Despite the clear prohibition in Halacha against ascending the Har habyis, Jews continue to do so.
Ari Abramowitz, of The Land of Israel Network, was forcibly silenced and detained on Har Habayis on Tuesday as he lead a group in reciting the Kaddish for the Solomon family slain in N’vei Tzuf on Shabbos.
Amazingly, a policeman comes over to Abramowitz and literally places his hand over his mouth to prevent the words of Kaddish from coming out. He is then escorted off the holy site and detained for daring to recite a tefilla on Har Habayis in defiance of Waqf Authority regulations.
Gedolei Yisrael over the generations and the Chief Rabbinate of Israel prohibit visiting Har Habayis, which they explain carries the punishment of karess.

This idiot clearly has the intention to trigger MORE bloodshed by deliberately going up to har habayis and acting in a manner certain to inflame tensions. You don’t go to a fire and pour gasoline so you can say you’ve made sure the fireman have sufficient work to do.
