Nationalist politicians and city councilmen reacted with shock to the announcement, after exactly 2,500 building tenders for Jewish neighborhoods in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria were frozen Monday by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu due to US threats of a "covert building freeze."

RETREAT TO JORDAN IN THE ADMINISTRATIO OF JEWS' MOST SACRED SITE - TEMPLE MOUNT IN JERUSALEM

Prime Minister orders removal of newly constructed Temple Mount Bridge

Work began on Wednesday to take apart a controversial bridge leading to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem before anger over the structure could cause a diplomatic rift with Jordan, Israeli officials said.

Access to the Temple Mount via the Mughrabi gate has been a sensitive issue since an original earth ramp from the Western Wall plaza to the gate used by non-Muslim visitors collapsed after a snowstorm in 2004.
 
The wooden bridge, alongside the existing Mughrabi Bridge, was supposed to provide access for non-Muslim visitors to the Temple Mount from close to the Western Wall plaza.

Erected less than two weeks ago, the bridge had not officially been opened when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered it be dismantled after it became clear that the project was not approved by the Jordanians (who were given control of Temple Mount - the most sacred Jewish site - by the Israeli government as an inexplicable conciliatory gesture after the Jordanian defeat in 1967).

News of the about-face over the bridge came on the same day as reports that Israel had closed a $15 billion deal with Jordan to supply the Hashemite Kingdom with natural gas. However, the government official said that the gas contract did not influence Netanyahu’s actions over the bridge.
