Wow, maybe they really will break-ground for the third temple! I was starting to think that it was going to be a building that they borrowed/bought and retrofitted for the Holy of holies, etc.
I wonder if they will sacrifice a ram, or what. Ram is in a recent run so I guess that's why it came to mind, or is that one of the animals they did sacrifice? Gotta look it up.
PS, just read up on it a bit. No definitive answer if there will even be animal sacrifices. Some Orthodox Jews want it to be, but hasn't been done in thousands of years.

This was news to me so I went a-searching. Sure enough, http://www.breakingisraelnews.com/32009/...ish-world/
There are those who believe this fulfills prophecy from Revelations: http://www.new2torah.com/2012/02/israel-...ple-mount/ This article is 3 years old, so at that time the altar had not been built. I include it mainly for the prophetic references.
And another, more recent article: http://www.wnd.com/2015/03/holy-altar-co...sh-temple/
Sort of a historical review of the Temple Mount: http://www.endtime.com/endtime-magazine-...ple-mount/
There are so many sites discussing this that I can't believe I hadn't heard of it before.
