How can we stop israel from doing the same now with unified Christian support?

The base of the claim is not historical. Bible is their only source of claim of "The promised land" .

On the other hand when Umar build the Dom of rock that time there was no Jewish temple there. The second Jewish temple was destroyed by the Romans in 70CE ,and that time even Christianity didn't exist in it's current form let alone islam .

So Muslims didn't break the second temple in order to build the Dom of the rock , so such arguments are invalid.

( Read this article better understanding of Christianity before Nicence Creed . That was long after the Jewish 2nd Temple was destroyed.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicene_Creed
)

Also orthodox Jewish believe that only their Messiah ( not Jesus , Jesus isn't any part of Judaism,forget what Christians claim ) can build the thrid temple .

So I would say if their ( Jewish Messiah not Christian Messiah) Messiah come before the end of the day , they can destroy the Dom of rock and build the third temple if he wants, I will not object .

But we will have to wait to know the reality till the end of time aka Qiyamat . Before Jewish Messiah come ( whom Jewish are expecting ) a pure Jewish can't claim to build the third temple by destroying the masjid.

So it's better not to argue without knowing the basic concept of other religion, specially Judaism . Judasim that has no similarity with Christianity other than Old Testament and this name is Also a Christian given name of the Hebrew Bible aka Tanakh. Jewish call it written Torah .

Also Judaism has another thing named Talmud and that's called as oral Torah ( rejected by Christianity) , and without the Talmud there is no Judasim.

So judging Judaism in the light of Christianity is the never a wise thing to do .

Read about Third Temple from ultra orthodox chassidic Judasim website .

Also

Read about Jewish Messiah ( because only he has the right to build Theird Temple , according to Judasim) on another orthodox Jewish site .

They sold church so that they can make another one in another place . What's the big deal here if it's not prohibited in Christianity?

By the way what do you mean by "They are orthodox" ?
There is no hardline sector named orthodox sector in Christianity unlike orthodox Judaism .

Practically all Christian sectors are orthodox other than some new era churches who validate gay marriage !

In reality modern day Christianity has three sector and they are Catholic, Protestant ( with many sub divisions) and orthodox . But be sure ,this orthodox is not like orthodox Judaism ,its just nominally a branch to separate them from others . Besides, the official name of Eastern orthodox church is Orthodox Catholic church .

But this orthodoxy is not like orthodox Judasim who are very strict in religious practice .

Historically Roman Catholic church ( vatican ) was more orthodox aka conservative than orthodox Eastern church itself .

Ever hard something named fourth crusade ? This was between catholic ( crusader) and orthodox . Ayyubid sultanate was ally of orthodox Byzantine empire in the crusade .

In the history of crusade ,no crusade happened between orthodox Christians and Muslims, but all crusaders belong to catholic church .

So don't jump to conclusion just by knowing the word orthodox Christianity . As they always were less orthodox (conservative ) than Catholic church historically and that time Christianity was divided only in 2 branch and that is Roman Catholic church aka western Christianity and Eastern Christianity.

However there are another type of orthodoxy called oriental orthodoxy and they aren't considered orthodoxy by Eastern churches because of their different belief regarding the divinity of Jesus Christ . Read about council of chalcedon. But that's different argument.

So never be fooled by the word orthodoxy when the case is Christianity . Every branch is Orthodox aka strictly conservative.

do you really think orthodox sale church if they were free ?

It's not an argument. Ottomans proposed and they sold ,case colosed . Ottomans didn't takeover it forcefully.

Besides orthodoxy was not too rich like Catholics that time and many many times were attacked by crusaders. So later when they fall to ottomans and if ottomans paid them handsome amount they can sell it to recover their past days damages .

They needed money ,ottomans offered it and they took . And also it's not against their religious belief . So what's the problem here ?
