Under armed police escort, Danny Danon, a deputy parliament speaker, toured the site of an ancient Jewish temple, a plaza home to the al-Aqsa mosque, one of Islam's holiest sites, and said he thought Jews should be permitted freer access there.

A group of Muslim protesters shouted "Allahu Akhbar," or God is Greatest, as Danon, trailed by armed police and dozens of Israeli and Western tourists, strolled around the area known to Muslims as al-Haram al-Sharif, and to Jews as the Temple Mount.

Danny Danon says, “I am sorrowed by the fact that the dignity of the children who underwent atrocities in their home country has been trampled.  The country of the Jewish people has the moral responsibility to treat them fairly.”  As the Chiarman of the Committee of the Rights of the Child, Danon strongly supports any legislation or new protocol that will protect children, especially those who are disadvantaged.
