October 2007:
We met with Professor Asher Kaufman, architect of the Northern theory of the location of the First and Second Temples. We communicated with the other two major world experts on the location of the First and Second Temples. We learned that all the experts agree that more exploration on the Temple Mount is needed to surmount the differences in the theories as to where the First and Second Temples were located. We subsequently formed AIFO, as a sub organization of People for a Bill to Build the Beit HaMikdash. AIFO, Hebrew for "where," is dedicated to helping the recognized experts about the location of the First and Second Temples, gain permission to excavate and or explore in limited and defined areas of the Temple Mount.

August - September 2007:
We further solidified plans to formally register our organization as a substructure of the Amutah "Canfei Nesharim. We drew up the papers in Hebrew and are now finalizing the legal paper work and preparing to go to court.
June - July 2007:
We met with Professsor Eidelberg of the Yamin Party. We decided to support the Yamin party in future Israeli elections, because it is the only party which has openly included a statement about building the Third Temple in the official list of their party goals. Professor Eidelberg subsequently gave two radio talks about the need to build the Third Temple, and changes that need to be made in the Government of Israel, to create a political foundation conducive to the building of the Third Temple.
