Oroligt i Jerusalem

Det verkar som om flera av de palestinska ledarna gör allt de kan för att starta en tredje intifada. Det har idag varit oroligt på Temepelberget efter att muslimska ledare uppmanat människor att komma till platsen för att "försvara" Al Aqsa moskén. Om man vill få människorna att tappa fattningen och reagera med känslorna skall man sprida rykten om att Al-Aqsa moskén är i fara, det är vid det här laget ett gammalt knep.

9 cops, reporter lightly hurt in J'lem
Nine police officers and a foreign reporter were lightly wounded Sunday during clashes between security forces and Arab rioters in the capital.
Police were forced to enter the Temple Mount twice during the the day of fierce rioting, and were met by a hail of rocks and a firebomb.
Police said the disturbances began when officers were accompanying a group of tourists up to the mount. According to police, several Muslim youngsters were caught on video preparing to cause trouble; gathering rocks to throw and pouring oil onto the ground to hinder the access of security forces and the visitors.

Hamas accused of inciting J'lem riots
After security forces clashed on Sunday with Muslim rioters on the Temple Mount and elsewhere in east Jerusalem, police blamed Hamas and the Islamic Movement for once again inciting Israel's Arab population to violence in the capital.
"Throughout the day, very large groups of Arab residents of east Jerusalem and other Israeli Arabs have come to the area at the encouragement of the Islamic Movement," Police Chief Commissioner Insp.-Gen. David Cohen told reporters. "I urge them (the Islamic Movement) to show restraint and not to incite."

Mashaal: J'lem's fate will be determined by force, not talks
Following a day of clashes between security forces and Arab rioters in Jerusalem, Damascus-based Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal on Sunday evening stated that the fate of the capital would be determined by force, not negotiations.
The fate of Jerusalem will be determined only by confrontation and not by the negotiating tables," Mashaal said in a speech, according to Channel 10.
"The Israelis want to divide al-Aqsa Mosque, and this is not all. They want to hold their religious ceremonies in the mosque … in preparation for demolishing it and building their temple there," he reportedly said.
