Two-thirds of Israelis displeased with handling of Temple Mount crisis

A Channel 2 News poll finds that 67 percent of Israelis believe Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu handled the Temple Mount crisis badly.

A similar number 68% backed placing metal detectors at the entrances to the holy site, a step that enraged many Muslims, while even more, 77%, say it was a mistake to remove them, as Israel did late Monday after consultations with the Jordanian government.
