Yehuda Glick

Jehuda Glick ( יהודה גליק; born November 20th 1965 ) is an Israeli Orthodox rabbi , guide and was from 2016 to 2019 as a member of the Likud deputy of the Knesset .

Life

Glick was born in the USA to Brenda and Shimon Glick ; When he was eight , he immigrated to Israel with his family and grew up in Beersheba , where his father was in charge of the internal medicine department at Soroka Hospital.

Organizations

As chairman of HALIBA (הליב"ה) (Acronym (המיזם לחופש יהודי בהר הבית); English: The project for Jewish freedom on the Temple Mount ), an Israeli umbrella organization that also calls itself The Temple Mount Heritage Foundation , calls for Glick free access to the Temple Mount ( "to re-claim for Jews the basic civil rights of free access, free worship, and free congregation on the Temple Mount. ” ) and takes the view that Jews have the right to pray on the Temple Mount.

He is also director of the Temple Institute ( Hebrew מכון המקדש Machon HaMikdasch ), a group that wants the Third Temple to be built in its traditional place on the Temple Mount.

Jehuda Glick on the Temple Mount

Although his activities are usually right-wing, he also calls for the elimination of discrimination against women and homosexuals .

Tourist guide

Glick also propagates the claims to the Temple Mount as a tourist guide, reporting to the tourists in front of the Mughrabi Gate - the only entrance for tourists and Jews who are only allowed to visit the holy place - of the underground archaeological treasures under the Temple Mount (“how much Jewish history is hidden under the third holiest place in Islam ”). Glick also calls the way of the control in front of the Mughrabi gate "selection", which he compares this form of separation with the " selection " of the Jewish arrivals in the concentration camps. While Christian tourists are allowed to pass the door on the right without being checked, Jews have to enter the door on the left. Glick filed a complaint with the Supreme Court , unsuccessfully , using the text of a lawsuit that Arabs had successfully used against profiling at Tel Aviv Airport. Glick merely exchanged the word “Arabs” for “Jews” and “Airport” for “Temple Mount”.

In his work, Glick was greeted by loud “ Allahu-akbar! “-Calls ( God is greatest ) drowned out. He was regularly insulted and spat at. Muslim passers-by shouted "Death to the Jews" behind his back on the Temple Mount. Glick recorded all of this with his camera and later presented it to the police. Fights increased. After a scuffle in the summer of 2014, the Israeli police forbade him from entering the Temple Mount. After a hunger strike lasting 53 days, the court allowed him to visit the Temple Mount.

Assassination 2014

A Palestinian assassin fired four shots at Glick while driving past a motorcycle on the street in Jerusalem on the evening of October 29, 2014. Four bullets hit him in the neck, chest, stomach and hand. He was admitted to the Schaare-Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem, seriously injured. The alleged assassin was killed in an exchange of fire with the police the next day. After several operations, Glick was released from the hospital on November 24, 2014. The suspect was a member of Islamic Jihad and had previously spent eleven years in Israeli prisons. Shortly afterwards, the terrorist organization published an obituary for its activist and, like its competitors, claimed responsibility for the attempted murder from Fatah .

Visit to Austria

Glick was on a private visit to Austria in February 2018. He also met with the party chairman of the FPÖ and Vice Chancellor Heinz-Christian Strache , the non-party Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl and the FPÖ club chairman Johann Gudenus .

Private

Glick lives in the Otniel settlement , is married and has eight children.
