Perhaps restricting Israelis from worshiping too close to Palestinian Muslims is understandable.  When the Ashkenaziim fled the pogroms of Christian Europe, the Muslims then ruling Palestine invited them to pray on El-Shabbat in Masjidul Ibrahim--the mosque build above and adjacent to Abraham's tomb, telling them "He was your father, too."  And in 1994 Barukh Goldstein repaid Muslim kindness by shooting them in the back while they prayed the dawn prayer during Sharul-Ramadhan.  The "official" count is given as 29, but the Society of Friends published a list of 51 names of slaughtered worshipers two or three days after the attack.  And Zionist fanatics honor Goldstein as a martyred 'hero' for slaughtering children--rabbi Edo Elba eulogized him, saying that it was 'a mitzva' (a good deed) to kill every person of a nation fighting the Jew, even women and children."
