Police Chief Yochanan Danino, spoke of the recent violent events at the International Police Chief Convention in Tel-Aviv and said, “We are seeing incitement on the part of extremist sources from all directions, whose common goal is to create an air ripe with hatred and terror.”
Danino added that “To say that Temple Mount is in danger is a lie. Israel’s Police Department is responsible for the public’s security, for Jerusalem, for Temple Mount, and for the status quo. We have been doing it since 1967 and nothing has changed since then.”
