Pray on Temple Mount?  Ad Feedback  JERUSALEM, Israel -- For
decades, Jews and Christians have been prohibited from praying
on the Temple Mount, but a new Israeli parliamentarian thinks
that should change.  Newly appointed head of the Knesset
Interior and Environmental Committees, Likud MK Miri Regev, says
it's not right to prohibit Jews from praying on the Temple
Mount.  Regev, 48, married with three children, served as a
brigadier general in the Israel Defense Forces.  "I don't
understand why a Jew is not allowed to pray in the most sacred
place for him -- the Temple Mount," Regev said in statement
Wednesday.  The new committee chairwoman says she plans to tour
the Temple Mount, where the First and Second Jewish Temples once
stood, in the near future.  Warnings by left-wing politicians
that such statements will undermine peace talks and could spark
a third intifada don't seem to
