Throw in the political tinderbox that is the Middle East and nuclear arms on all sides and yeah it's looking kind of scary as Aware said.

Let's not put the problem on those who want to adhere to Torah Law, rather the problem lies with your beloved Mooslims. Why shouldn't peace loving peoples worship God as they choose?
Your comment about the Gospel of John makes no sense. The Temple is not for NT believers. If you are entitled to your dumb ideas, as are a billion Mooslims, why is the same courtesy not extended to the Jews?
