Shin Bet thwarts operation to bomb Al-Aqsa

https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/news/middle-east/16260-shin-bet-thwarts-operation-to-bomb-al-aqsa

The Israeli intelligence service Shin Bet have thwarted an operation to blow up the Dome of the Rock Mosque, in the Al-Aqsa compound, by an American Jewish extremist, Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper revealed today.

According to the paper, Adam Everett Livvix, a Christian who is wanted in the United States for questioning on drug-related charges, was charged by the Netanya Magistrate's Court on Tuesday for illegal possession of arms and for outstaying his visa.

Shin Bet arrested the 30-year-old on November 19. He tried to evade capture by jumping out of his seventh floor window and was apprehended on the balcony beneath.
---
Livvix was found in possession of weapons, ammunition and explosives kept in a storage shed next to his flat in Tel Aviv. His accomplice and flatmate, an Israeli soldier who cannot be named for legal reasons, was also arrested.

They usually do a very good job at stopping these things before something terrible happens.

I'm not sure what, exactly, would happen if one of these loons got through, but it would not be pretty or edifying.
