Hamas: Shooting of extremist Israeli rabbi “natural response”

Fanatic rabbi shot, seriously wounded in Occupied Jerusalem

Yehuda Glick, the fanatic rabbi organizing semi-daily break-ins into al-Aqsa Mosque, has been shot and seriously wounded on Wednesday night in occupied Jerusalem. The Israeli TV Channel 10 reported that the rabbi, a right-wing activist, was shot at from close range in his upper body outside the Menachem Begin Heritage Center after attending ‘Israel Returns to the Temple Mount’ conference. The broadcast said that a motorcyclist fired at Glick, 50, at point blank, and quoted medical sources as saying that he was hit with three bullets and his condition was serious. It said that a Palestinian man was suspected of carrying out the attempt, adding that police forces were deployed in various suburbs in the holy city looking for the suspect. The TV said that Nir Barakat, the Israeli mayor of Jerusalem, arrived to the scene along with MK Moshe Feiglin amidst tight security measures. Glick is the leader of the extremist temple mount faithful movement and he is notorious for his active attempts to rally support for the construction of the alleged temple mount on the ruins of the Aqsa Mosque. Meanwhile, Hamas said the shooting of a far-right Jewish rabbi in Occupied Jerusalem was a natural response to his constant desecration of the holy Aqsa Mosque. Barhoum said in a press release that the rabbi’s shooting was a “natural reaction” to what he described as Israeli crimes and violations of the sanctity of the Aqsa Mosque and holy sites.

Israeli special forces assassinate liberated prisoner

Israeli special police forces killed Mutaz Hijazi, a liberated prisoner, in Silwan south of the Aqsa Mosque at dawn Thursday, after breaking into his home. Jerusalemite sources said that special forces and disguised security elements raided Thawri neighborhood in Silwan at dawn and broke into Hijazi’s home and killed him on the roof of his house at point blank. According to a police source, Hijazi was killed in a shootout with an elite Border Guard counter-terrorism unit (Yamam). The Israeli police accused Hijazi with the attempted assassination of extremist rabbi Yehuda Glick on Wednesday night. Eyewitnesses reported that Hijazi was fatally shot and succumbed to his wounds a short while later. They said that three other inhabitants in the suburb were injured in the incident. Hijazi served 11 and half years in Israeli jails including ten years in solitary conďŹ nement. He was arrested in 2000 and jailed for six years for joining intifada activities. He received four additional years sentence in 2004 after he assaulted one of his guards. He was released in June 2012.

Israel imposes restrictions on Muslims› access to Aqsa Mosque

Israeli police allow MK Feiglin, Jewish settlers to defile Aqsa Mosque

Restrictions on Muslims’ access to the Aqsa Mosque compound to perform Friday prayers will not be lifted despite Israel’s decision to reopen it after it was closed on Thursday. Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation police allowed right-wing Knesset member Moshe Feiglin and several Jewish settlers to desecrate the Aqsa Mosque and perform rituals. According to Israeli media sources, the Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) are expected to reopen the Aqsa Mosque to Muslims on Friday to perform their religious prayers. However, usual entry restrictions will be imposed on Muslims at the Mosque, and a large number of Israeli troops and checkpoints have already been deployed throughout the city. The Israeli occupation police closed down the Aqsa Mosque on Thursday to all Muslims and visitors in the aftermath of the shooting of extremist rabbi Yehuda Glick on Wednesday. During the presence of MK Feiglin inside the Aqsa Mosque compound, the police prevented Palestinian citizens of all ages from going in, local sources said. Feiglin on Saturday had declared his intention to enter the Aqsa Mosque in order to perform rituals and pray for the recovery of rabbi Yehuda Glick, who survived an assassination attempt in Jerusalem, but is still in critical condition. Meanwhile, a large number of Jewish settlers, including extremist temple mount activists, rabbis and intelligence officers, have rallied at Al-Maghariba Gate of the Aqsa Mosque in order to defile the Islamic holy place in groups and pray for Glick.

Tension running high across Jerusalem as IOF steps up assaults

A round of renewed clashes between the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) and a group of Palestinian civilian youths burst out across Occupied Jerusalem on Saturday. Eye-witnesses said the confrontations spread out to Jerusalem’s neighborhoods of al-Issawiya, Jabal al-Makbar and the Old City. By-standers at the scene said the IOF targeted the civilian youngsters with heavy barrages of tear gas grenades and sound bombs. The IOF attack culminated in the abduction of a Palestinian boy in Bab al-Amoud, one of the main entryways of the Old City of Jerusalem. Large troops of the Israeli occupation police have been cordoning off the Palestinian neighborhoods in Occupied Jerusalem under pretext of searching for suspected stone-hurlers. The Israeli occupation apparatuses claimed responsibility for the abduction of a 17-year-old Palestinian child allegedly for having been possibly involved in throwing firecrackers. Meanwhile, the Israeli PM, Benjamin Netanyahu, urged all Israeli MKs to soothe tension around al-Aqsa Mosque. The appeal came at a time when extremist MK Moshe Feiglin threatened to storm Muslims’ holy al-Aqsa Mosque in retaliation for Wednesday’s shooting of Israeli fanatic rabbi Yehuda Glick.

The movement also demanded Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas stop “security coordination” with the Israeli occupation and urged him to enable the Palestinian people to rise up in the face of the Israeli “attack” on Jerusalem and the holy sites.

In Gaza the marches were led by leaders of the Islamic Movement Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the Popular Resistance Movement and members of the Palestinian Legislative Council. Leaders from the three parties delivered speeches. A day earlier, Hamas called on the Palestinian people to support the resistance and to rise up in defence of Al-Aqsa Mosque against the Israeli “violations and crimes” which are committed every day. In a press statement, Hamas warned Israel against

Hamdan: Egypt›s buffer zone would strengthen Israel›s blockade

Egyptian army to raze homes of citizens near Gaza border for buffer zone

The Egyptian army on Tuesday evening demanded the residents of the northern neighborhoods in the Egyptian border city of Rafah to evacuate their areas in order to demolish their homes and establish a 500-meter buffer zone along the borderline with the Gaza Strip. The Egyptian army, which started recently a widespread military campaign in Sinai following the killing and injury of many of its soldiers, said that the buffer zone, which will include water-filled trenches and an iron wall to thwart tunnel diggers, will be 500 meters wide and extend along the 13-kilometer border. The Egyptian step would lead to the displacement of Egyptian families in this restive area in the northeastern corner of the Sinai Peninsula. The Palestinian ministry of interior and national security, in its turn, affirmed that the southern Gaza border with Egypt is always under its control and subject to strict security measures, and denied any Palestinian involvement in Egypt’s internal events. In this regard, different political analysts expressed their beliefs in televised remarks that If Egypt created its buffer zone and secured its border with Gaza, the security problems in Sinai would continue to take place because the dangers threatening Egypt’s security are internal and have nothing to do with the impoverished Palestinian Strip. For his part, director of Hamas’s international relations Osama Hamdan said that the buffer zone would support Israel’s blockade on the Gaza Strip and contribute to the incitement campaign in Egypt against the Palestinian people. In televised remarks on Sunday, Hamdan stated that Gaza and its people have nothing to do with any events happening in North Sinai governorate, affirming that the Palestinian side in Gaza is always keen on maintaining good relations with Egypt. He expressed his belief that Israel could be involved in the 29/10/2014 Source: Agencies violent incidents that had happened in Sinai.

Sweden officially recognizes state of Palestine

Sweden has officially recognized the state of Palestine on Thursday. While Palestinians welcomed “the historical move,” Israel expressed disappointment. Swedish foreign minister Margot Wallstrom confirmed that the government took the decision to recognize Palestine as a state in a meeting held Thursday, becoming the first EU member state to do so.

In memory of the Balfour Declaration: an ongoing Palestinian catastrophe On May 14, 1948, David BenGurion, the head of the Jewish Agency, proclaimed the establishment of the State of Israel. U.S. President at the time, Harry S. Truman recognized the new nation on the same day. The same day of the Israel establishment makes the same day to the Palestinian Nakba (Catastrophe), when 700,000 Palestinians fleed their homes to seek refuge from Israeli military, in foreign countries.

97 years ago today, 2 November 1917,Arthur James Balfour, the British Foreign Secretary of the time, wrote to the American Lord Rothschild, promisning British support for the Zionist programme of establishing a “national home for the Jewish people” in Palestine. This pledge of support was made without consulting the indigenous Muslim, Christian and Jewish inhabitants of Palestine, the Palestinian people. And it was made before British troops had even conquered the land. Balfour declared his support for the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine, and British imperialism in Palestine began. Balfour illegally and with no right whatsoever, promised Palestine to the Jews, to prevent the Jewish emigration to Britain. Ironically, in the British Cabinet, Lord Montagu, the only Jewish member opposed the declaration. In May 1946, Truman announced his approval of a recommendation to admit 100,000 displaced persons into Palestine and in October publicly declared his support for the creation of a Zionist Jewish state. Throughout 1947, the United Nations Special Commission on Palestine examined the Palestinian question and recommended the partition of Palestine into a Jewish and an Arab state. On November 29, 1947 the United Nations adopted Resolution 181 (also known as the Partition Resolution) that would divide Great Britain’s former Palestinian mandate into Jewish and Arab states in May 1948 when the British mandate was scheduled to end. Under the resolution, the area of religious significance surrounding Jerusalem would remain a corpus separatum under international control administered by the United Nations. 12

Since the establishment of “Israel”, and the beginning of the Israeli occupation, about 7 million Palestinians were recorded refugees in the UNRWA. 2 million Palestinians were killed since 1936, 0.1 million from violence, 1.9 million from war-, expulsion- and occupation-derived deprivation; 7 million refugees; 4.1 million Occupied Palestinians deprived of ALL the human rights listed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ; 6 million Palestinians forbidden to even live in the homeland continuously inhabited by their forbears to the very dawn of agrarian civilization; 0.9 million Palestinian children confined without charge or trial. A “Jewish state” under the pretext of religious sympathy, stole the Palestinian lands, and still do so today, each single moment.

Israeli Interior Minister Gideon Sa’ar has submitted a resignation letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Channel 1 reported Sunday. According to local media reports, Sa’ar might join former welfare and social services minister Moshe Kahlon who is in the middle of the process of establishing a new party. The speculation came two months after Sa’ar announced that he intends to resign and temporarily retire from politics to focus on his family. Gideon Sa’ar is a member of the Likud party, serving as a Knesset member since 2003. It is still unclear who will replace Sa’ar as the interior minister.

Malaysia & Palestinian Cause

Dividing Al Aqsa Mosque Can Cause New Conflict – NGOs Israel’s intention to divide the Al Aqsa Mosque temporally and spatially between Muslims and Jews may cause a new conflict in Palestine and uproar in the Muslim world, Malaysia’s non-governmental associations (NGOs) warned. Al-Quds Foundation Malaysia Managing Director, Dr Mohammad Makram said Israel’s Parliament (Knesset) is currently in the midst of introducing a new bill that if approved, would allow Jews to pray inside the Muslims’ third holiest mosque, and set specific places and dates for their prayers. “For the last 1,300 years Al Aqsa has been a Muslim place of worship and it will stay as such, not because we want to monopolise it. Jerusalem is open to all cultures and religions, but we do not allow anybody to take over our holy place (Al Aqsa Mosque),” he told a press conference to brief the media on the latest situation regarding the Al Aqsa Mosque at Wisma Bernama here today.

Meanwhile, PCOM Director of Political Relations, Abdullah Aqrabawi said as a Palestinian, he hoped Malaysia would continue to voice its support on the issue during Malaysia’s term in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) from 2015-2016 to defend the Al-Aqsa mosque.

Also present at the press conference were representatives from 16 other NGOs including Humanitarian Care Malaysia Berhad (MyCARE), Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia (ABIM), Majlis Perundingan Pertubuhan Islam Malaysia (MAPIM) and Palestinian Cultural Organisation Malaysia(PCOM).

Islamic NGOs want special Parliament sitting to save Al-Aqsa Mosque

A group of Islamic NGOs on Wednesday urged the government to convene a special Parliament sitting to condemn the Israel government for attempting to divide the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, the third holiest mosque for Muslims. The NGOs include Majlis Perundingan Pertubuhan Islam Malaysia (Mapim), Aqsa Syarif, Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia (ABIM), Viva Palestina Malaysia, Palestinian Cultural Organisation (PCOM), Yayasan AlQuds Malaysia and Persatuan Kebangsaan Pelajar Islam Malaysia (PKPIM). Mapim president Mohd Azmi Abd Hamid said the sitting was necessary because Israel’s parliament (the Knesset) was trying to pass a bill to enable Jews to perform prayers at the mosque. “We must send a signal to the world that there needs to be an uprising in the name of justice, human and religious rights because this is an alarming development,” he told a press conference in speaking on their behalf here.

Articles & Analyses

Rafah is gone with the wind By: Dr Amira Abo el-Fetouh The degree of madness and criminality attained by the coup regime is growing faster and more intense than we imagined. The people of Rafah living in the Egyptian city of Sinai have been displaced after their homes were bombed and the olive trees were uprooted in preparation for the establishment of the buffer zone. This same buffer zone was demanded by Israel and the US during Mubarak’s rule, specifically in 2007 after the Israeli attack on Gaza, which the Islamic resistance bravely withstood. The former regime did not dare to carry out such a measure and instead remained content with the separation wall (wall of shame) between Sinai and Gaza. All the while, the regime continued to besiege Gaza and destroy the tunnels, which are the only lifeline for the brave people of Gaza who have been besieged from all directions. However, Al-Sisi has been installed into power to execute all of Israel’s demands and implement its project. The current project pursued in the region is the complete elimination of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), which the Zionist wars failed to get rid of and erase the word resistance from the minds of the Arabs. It will also give Israel the freedom to deal with the region in any way it wants, after first fragmenting it into ethnic and sectarian mini-states that fight and dispute amongst each other, which is exactly the case in Syria, Iraq, and Libya. These wars also failed to destroy 16

the culture of resistance in the region and completely eradicate it so that Israel could enjoy security and safety. Now Al-Sisi is playing the role assigned to him by considering the residents of Sinai enemies that must be fought and displaced from their land, which they inherited from their ancestors thousands of years ago. He created an enemy out of nowhere, but this will eventually result in real hostility because the people of Sinai now have a blood feud with Al-Sisi’s regime after their children were killed for no reason and they were unjustly driven out of their homes. Merely saying that there is no God but Allah has given Al-Sisi the right to kill them under the pretext of fighting terrorism and the global war on Islam. He is really pushing the people of Sinai towards having their revenge on his regime which made them feel alienated from the Egyptian state and exiled them. It makes me feel very sad when I hear the people of Sinai say that they were safe under the Israeli

occupation of Sinai after 1967 and that they were not subject to such heinous human rights violations by the Zionists. It is strange that when Al-Sisi was the defence minister, he said in December 2012 that if the Rafah area was evacuated, it would create a vendetta between the government and the people of Sinai and that it would pose a great danger to Egypt’ national security. What happened in 2014 that made the evacuation of Rafah so necessary to preserve Egypt’s national security? How many crimes were committed by Al-Sisi in the name of Egypt’s national security while our national security has nothing to do with them? Al-Sisi did not mention Egypt’s national security when talking about the borders with Israel; are they safe from treachery as long as Al-Sisi implements Israel’s strategic agenda in the region? Most importantly, if he thinks so, then he is like all the tyrants who do not care about their countries or their people. All they care about are their thrones. The country and the people can burn as long as their thrones are safe.
