it was an act of provocation. He was trying to get Muslims/Palestinians to attack him, or people with him, so there could be a 'crackdown' on Palestinians.

I was taught back in Hebrew school that Jews should not go onto the Temple Mount, because we do not know where the Holy of Holies was located, and by going on to the Temple Mount we could enter that area, and violate, a number of laws.

And this was in an Orthodox hebrew school.
Neither I or my family were/are orthodox, but that is a story for another day.
