The choice of terminology used by news is a subtle but key factor in how it is interpreted, especially by the least knowledgeable readers. To deny or failure to mention that this site is the site of the Temple and the holiest site for Jews is a grave omission. In a piece of news I read yesterday, the note mentioned that this thing started when an activist Jew was demanding the right to pray "in Islam's second holiest site" without mentioning that it is Judaism's absolute holiest site.
