Restoring Courage was a campaign announced on May 2011 by media personality Glenn Beck featuring a media event that took place in Jerusalem, on August 24, 2011, to stand with the Jewish people. While announcing the rally, he expressed a belief that a two-state solution would [cut] off Jerusalem, the Old City, to the rest of the world. Beck said security arrangements and logistics would pose a challenge: The very gates of hell will open up against us. Beck's Mercury Radio Arts sponsored three rallies or observances associated with Restoring Courage, including a rally attended by hundreds of supporters on August 24 at the Southern Wall of the Temple Mount.
