gene_iHow some things change, and yet stay the same...
Yes, we blow shofar at the Kotel now, but try to do it just a bit further - on the Temple Mount, and you will hear exactly the same arguments: it might offend the arabs...
Only now it is the Israeli army/police instead of the British that will chase you if you try to blow the shofar there.
In memory of the Imas family remember this:
Gmar Xatima Tova to all! May we blow shofar on Har haBait soon, in our days!
