This document is a page from a manuscript (likely Ehud Barak's memoir) describing the events leading up to the Second Intifada in September 2000. It details the political maneuvering behind Ariel Sharon's controversial visit to the Temple Mount, the security consultations Barak held with Israeli officials and Palestinian counterparts, and the subsequent outbreak of violence despite US diplomatic intervention. The text highlights the tense political atmosphere following the collapse of Camp David and attributes the escalation of violence to Arafat's inaction.
