In September 2000, the Likud leader and leader of the opposition, Ariel Sharon, visited the Temple Mount with members of the Likud faction in the Knesset.  Some estimated that this visit caused an intifada.  This assessment was refuted by Arafat's postal and communications minister Imad Paluji, who said in a speech in Lebanon in March 2001, "Anyone who thinks the intifada broke out because of Sharon's heinous visit to the al-Aqsa Mosque is wrong.  Reject Clinton's proposals."

In 2002, Ehud Barak confirmed this in an interview with Prof. Benny Morris: "We have solid intelligence that Arafat planned to release the war dogs, a violent clash, and Sharon's visit is an excellent excuse for that."</blockquote></ref>
