Is Cave of the Patriarchs permanently reclaimed for Judaism?

[Frasier Balzov]

A mosque was eventually built over an ancient Jewish burial site called Cave of the Patriarchs.

The Ibrahimi Mosque in the West Bank city of Hebron has been the scene of at least two massacres by and of adherents to the competing religions.

I have just seen a short video of what appears to be Hassidic Jews setting up a prayer location inside the mosque. A sole IDF soldier carries in a Torah scroll and reverently places it inside a traditional piece of Torah storage furniture. (What is that cabinet called again?)

My discussion question is this: What is the long-term intention of this celebratory reclamation act? Is it temporary or permanent? Is it just a Yom Kippur holiday display, or does somebody think permanent co-existence inside this shared holy site is possible?

2. I don't know the answers to your questions,

but I just wanted to counter the snarky comment you received above.

5. Thanks, I understand the motivation to be on alert for topics

which might divide Democrat from Democrat at this crucial time.

4. The West Bank

Is the bridge to far. Netanyahu allowing his rightwing allies to terrorize non-Jewish people in the West Bank is ethically and morally reprehensible. Israel is waging a terror campaign that is both shocking and disturbing. Stealing homes. Jailing and beating innocent people. Murdering protesters. Using bulldozers to destroy buildings and infrastructure to force people to leave.
Just watch the John Oliver segment he recently did on the West Bank and then tell me how think it's justified for a so-called DEMOCRACY to treat people like that.
