While Erdogan "plays nice" with Israel, he is currently setting the "trap" for someone who he thinks is a novice and inexperienced prime minister and prone to temptation too easily in exchange for empty and insignificant gestures.
Erdogan wants to visit Israel not because he has fallen in love with Jews.
He plans to visit the Temple Mount in order to show the Muslim world and the residents of his country, that he has not abandoned his role of guarding "Al-Quds Al-Sharif" against the plots of the Jews.
It is needless to say what a great uproar such a visit can cause and what internal and mental damage can be caused to the State of Israel.
Saudi Arabia and Jordan are pressing Israel not to allow Erdogan on the Temple Mount and to compete with them.
