Freshmen congresswomen Ilhan Omar, D, MN and Rashida
Tlaib D, MI are planning to enter the Temple Mount complex according to reports
from Israel’s channel 13 journalist Barak Ravid.
In a tweet on Wednesday,
Ravid said that when Tlaib and Omar
visit Israel on Sunday, they want to and will visit the Temple Mount. He added
that they will be escorted by the Palestinian Authority according to “high
ranking officials”.
Ravid also said that a visit of that nature can have an
“explosive” impact in light of all the tension that took place in the last
several days.
He also said that Israel’s deputy adviser for internal
security Reuven Ezer held a secret meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu
regarding the entrance of the two congresswomen who also support the boycott
divestment and sanction (BDS) movement in Israel.
And although the meeting was meant to be kept secret, one
of the officials leaked to Ravid that Ezer said that there is “a very good
chance” that Omar and Tlaib
will want to visit the Temple Mount as they are both Muslims. Ezer also
stressed that if that is indeed the case that no delegates from the Palestinian
Authority be involved in such a visit.
Ezer added that the ideal goal would be that neither
congresswomen enter Israel but that if they do, the goal would be to minimize
any damage to Israel’s relations with the US.
Additionally, Ezer said that not everyone in Tlaib and
Omar’s entourage should be granted entrance into Israel. He added that he will
request a list of people that will be escorting the congresswomen from the
ambassador.
