Here's a very real lived experience for you: anyone can go to the Western Wall in Jerusalem, the 2nd most holy Jewish site with a security check. Anyone can go to the major Christian sites. Only Muslims are officially allowed to go to the Temple Mount, the first most holy Jewish site.

    I’ve been to Israel multiple times. Israeli Arabs are not allowed at the western wall and are turned away by security. I can introduce you to some of you don’t believe me.

    And the Temple Mount is under the control of the Jordanian government by Israeli treaty and the Israeli military isn’t letting people in, even most rabbis have said the Mount is off limits to Jews. Not that that’s stopped extemeists from going there. The Israeli military also often bans Muslims under age 60 from visiting so you’re not special.
