“It is unquestionable that this would endanger the sense of security of many Jews, especially at this site,” the court said.

    This statement is indistinguishable from a desire that politics should not take notice of genocide.

    edit: or at least should take no notice of the palestinian genocide; that the palestenian genocide is not to be compared to the holocaust.
