Let's stop bullying the Arabs by supporting oppressive governments.
It is a side reason, MNMP. In other words you can't consider it a main "reason". I mean, it's insulting to utter levels, at least to Arabs.
This is as similar to demolishing the Roman Catholic Church in Europe then replace it with a huge mosque covered in Arab decorations. Even to a European non-Christian nationalist, such act would be "stepping on the sovereignty of the land".
To many Palestinians, this is what is left out of their dear old Palestine : this mosque. If it's demolished, and replaced with a Jewish temple, I expect something else would happen. Something like a war between the Palestinians residing in the city and the Jews, and it will never end until one part is totally annihilated. With the brutality we saw the IDF use against civilians in Gaza, you can expect a bloodbath.
