Michael Rohan's arson at Al-Aqsa
On August 21, 1969, Australian Michael Rohan attempted to set fire to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, believing that by doing so he could help rebuild the Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount to hasten the Second Coming of the Messiah. He based his actions on the writings of Herbert Armstrong regarding the prophecies of Christ's return and the Battle of Armageddon, believing himself to be a divine messenger. His attempt ignited fires in parts of the mosque, specifically in the Al-Nuriddin Zanki and Salahuddin platforms, before the blaze was brought under control. Rohan was arrested, and the Israeli authorities determined that he was mentally unfit, leading to his trial and placement in a psychiatric hospital, after which he was returned to Australia.
