the Byzantine Caesar Yostaninos issued an edict forbidding the Jews from sacrificing the Korban Pesach as late as the Sixth Century of the Common Era, long after the destruction of The Temple. This shows the Jews were still offering the Korban Pessach long after the destruction.
edu:
Rabbi Yehuda Zolden brought a number of sources, that up to 54 years after the destruction of the Second Temple, an altar was still present there and in the days of Rabban Gamliel of Yavneh, one generation after the Temple's destruction, they still brought the Passover sacrifice upon this altar (See, Pesachim 74a, the writings of Maharatz Chiyut page 618, Sanhedrin 11b, Beitza 22a, Yerushalmi Taanit 2:5, Netziv, He'amek Davar, Dvarim 16:1-3).
Concerning Rambam, it is unlikely that he offered the Passover Sacrifice, since he made it a private holiday for himself, when he was able simply to visit the Temple Mount, but he makes no mention of offering the sacrifice which is a much greater religious accomplishment. It is also highly unlikely that the Moslems would have let the Jews put up an altar on the Temple Mount during Rambam's time.

The problem is much more than the Israeli government. The problem also greatly extends to many public speakers (Rabbis) who do not bring down the proper Halacha but instead discourage this great Misswah and they themselves are ignorant of these things. And even with the public that asks these things. What happens is that the public is discouraged and their is no real demand and awareness. Once their is real demand and awareness we can only begin the process and begin the Milhama for reinstuting the needed Misswah.
Just like Hannukah, spread the word. Tell people about it and bring the proof from the sources.

Shalom and Chag Sameach!
I recently posted a series of videos by Rabbi Richman of the Temple Institute which discusses the fact that the Jewish people are still obliged to offer the Korban Pesach and he supports a group which tries to do the service every year. I posted the video in the Pesach Videos thread.
