Gentile-only drinking fountains on the Temple Mount

YNet Hebrew reports:

Every two weeks, Elishema Sandman, 19, from Safed rises up to visit the Temple Mount . Sandman came to the Mughrabi Gate at 7:30 with another six Jews who wanted to visit.
Under the scorching sun, Sandman got thirsty and sought to use the water fountains to drink. But when he reached the taps, the police stopped him.

"Naturally, on a hot day here, I went to drink. When I approached the taps, the policeman stopped me and told me that I had no authorization to drink. I asked him what the story was, and he replied that he had received a new directive that Jews were forbidden to drink." Sandman wondered whether the prohibition applies only to the Jews. "Are tourists are allowed to drink?", he asked the police officer and he replied yes, adding that "only for Jews is it forbidden."

The article goes on to say that there are no written guidelines as to what Jews are forbidden to do on the Mount, although everyone knows they cannot pray, mutter, bring holy books or the like. Other police interviewed said they hadn't heard of this new directive.

I've previously shown a photo of Jewish children drinking water at a Muslim washing station.

As I noted then, they say the Jewish blessing before drinking, out loud, which is a Talmudic ritual!

Maybe that is the reason for the new rule - to stop Jews (who are, as we know, terrorists according to the PA) from saying blessings on their holiest site.
