was too open to misinterpretation.)

Eli Posner states as a matter of fact that most, if not
all of the sacrifices could be brought "b'zman ha-zeh".
There are serious halachik questions at stake, and the issue
is not as clear-cut as Eli makes it sound. My father
(Rabbi J.D. Bleich) wrote a survey of the responsa
regarding this question, entitled "reinstitution of the
sacrificial order", which appeared in Tradition in Fall
1962 and has been reprinted in Contemporary Halakhic
Problems, Vol. 1. I am going out of town tomorrow,
so I don't have time to list the "marei mekomos"
but it is quite a long list. I just want to point
out that the question isn't quite as simple as Eli
makes it sound.

I just skimmed over Chaya Bleich's father's article in contemporary halakhic problems. He notes that the sefer haxinuk states that rebuilding the beyt hamiqdas: becomes obligatory when the majority of Jews resides in the land of Israel. In view of American Jews' desire to commit ethnic suicide, this obligation will become incumbent on Jews in around 25 years. Whether we can reinstitute the sacrifices and whether we can rebuild the temple, my grandfather, hakam Hasan, was of the opinion that the various Muslim structures on Temple Mount should be knocked down. The various Muslim commentators are quite explicit that Muslim possession of Temple Mount demonstrates the truth of Islam and is a graphic expression of Jewish subjugation. In various Arabic journals, I now and then see the reluctance to knock these buildings down taken as evidence that we Jews know we will eventually loose the Land of Israel, that we will once again become dhimmis (subjects), and that the land of Israel is still part of the dar al-Islam (the House of Islam). The opinion of most Muslim scholars is that a Muslim must leave a land which has irrevocably left Muslim dominion.
