Top police officials met Sunday with politicians and activists to discuss a report on anti-Jewish discriminationon the Temple Mount put together by the Likud's Jewish Leadership faction. The police promised to change discriminatory policies against Jewish visitors to the Temple Mount.

The meeting was held after previous Knesset meetings on the subject revealed systematic discrimination regarding access to the Temple Mount, with those with an obviously Jewish or religious Jewish appearance being told they could not enter. Jewish tradition teaches that the Temple Mount is the holiest site on earth, and many Jews seek to visit the site despite the destruction of the Temple and some rabbis' objections to such visits.

Among those regularly turned back were brides who wished to visit the holy site on their wedding day, and soldiers who came in uniform. Read the rest on: Arutz7
