AL AQSA IS BEING TURNED INTO A WAR ZONE DURING RAMADAN AGAIN. THIS IS A HORRIFIC AND INTOLERABLE SITUATION NOT ONLY FOR BESIEGED PALESTINIANS BUT IT ATTACKS THE RELIGIOUS SENTIMENTS OF MUSLIMS GLOBALLY. THIS IS CLEARLY A RESULT OF JEWISH EXTREMISTS COMING TO POWER IN THE LATEST ISRAELI GOVERNMENT. JEWISH EXTREMISTS AND HARDLINERS WHO SHOULD BE LOCKED UP IN ANY DECENT SOCIETY AND TRIED AS WAR CRIMINALS ARE NOW CALLING THE SHOTS FOR ISRAELI SECURITY MATTERS BODES ILL FOR RELATIONS BETWEEN ISRAELIS AND PALESTINIANS.
FURTHER TO LOOKING AT THE EVIDENCE IT IS CLEAR THAT THE ILLEGITIMATE ZIONIST ENTITY IS SEEKING TO CHANGE THE STATUS QUO AT AL AQSA. THE OCCUPATION FORCES ARE RESTRICTING ACCESS TO THE HOLY SITES AND UNDERMINING THE FREEDOM OF RELIGION OF PALESTINIANS. ALSO THEY ARE ARE BRUTALLY ATTACKING ORDINARY PALESTINIANS WITH DISPROPORTIONATE FORCE AND DAMAGING THE MOSQUE DELIBERATELY.
SINCE THE 1967 WAR THERE IS AN AGREEMENT OR STATUS QUO IN WHICH THE HOLY SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE WAQF BODY ADMINISTERED BY JORDAN. THEREFORE THE OCCUPYING ZIONIST ISRAELI STATE SHOULD NOT BE INTERFERING IN ANYWAY. YET DESPITE THIS THE ISRAELI MILITARY CONTROL ANY MOVEMENT OF PALESTINIANS INTO OR OUTSIDE OF JERUSALEM. AS PART OF THE STATUS QUO JEWS ARE PERMITTED TO VISIT THE AREA BUT STRICTLY NOT TO PRAY THERE. YET ISRAELI FORCES ARE SEEN TO BE ESCORTING JEWISH ILLEGAL SETTLERS AND EXTREMISTS AND TURNING A BLIND EYE WHEN THEY PRAY THERE . MANY OF THESE ARE ACTUALLY FOREIGN IMMIGRANTS FROM THE USA AND ELSEWHERE . IN THE CONTEXT OF COLONISATION, AN ILLEGAL OCCUPATION AND BRUTALITY METED OUT, PALESTINIANS ARE VERY SENSITIVE TO VIOLATIONS HERE AS IT IS ONE OF THE FEW REMAINING SYSMBOLS OF THEIR IDENTITY AND NATIONHOOD.
OUTSIDERS NEED TO REALISE WHAT IS GOING ON HERE IS REALLY LIKE NAZIS ON THE RAMPAGE. IMAGINE THE VATICAN OR NOTRE DAME OR ST.PAULS CATHEDRALS BEING OCCUPIED BY AN ALIEN OCCUPYING FORCE AND THEN VISUALISE THESE FORCES RESTRICTING ACCESS TO THE HOLY SITES AND THEN RAIDING THESE HOLY SITES AND BEATING WORSHIPPERS BRUTUALLY AND DAMAGING THE CHURCH. THIS VIOLATES ALL CIVILISED BEHAVIOUR AND CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS STATE SPONSORED TERRORISM AND NAZISM. IT IS BEING CONTINUED BECAUSE THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY HAS NOT INTERVENED AND THE ISRAELIS HAVE NOT BEEN MADE TO PAY THE PRICE. NO WONDER MANY MUSLIMS ARE FED UP WITH A BIASED HYPOCRITICAL MEDIA WHICH WHITEWASHES TERRORISM COMMITTED AGAINST MUSLIMS AND MUSLIM COUNTRIES.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THIS IS ALL GOING TO CHANGE SOON WITH THE COLLAPSE OF THE DOLLAR AND RISE OF A MULTIPOLAR WORLD. THEN WE SHALL SEE WHO CALLS THE SHOTS WITH THE INAUGURATION OF A JUST WORLD ORDER. THE INHUMANE ZIONIST ISRAELI ENTITY IS DIGGING IT'S OWN GRAVE.
IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT ARAB AND MUSLIM GOVERNMENTS TO PRESSURISE THE EXTREME NATIONALIST ISRAELI GOVERNMENT NOT TO CROSS RED LINES. EVEN MORE IMPORTANT IS THE NEED TO DEFEND PALESTINE AND PALESTINIANS. HOWEVER, IT IS CLEAR THAT INTERNATIONAL INTERVENTION IS REQUIRED AND PALESTINIANS NEED TO REALISE THAT ONLY AN ISLAMIC LIBERATION OF THE HOLY LANDS CAN RESOLVE THIS EXISTENTIAL CRISIS.
THIS WILL MEAN THAT THEIR STRUGGLE FOR SELF DETERMINATION AND LIBERATION HAS TO BE 100% ISLAMIC. THEY NEED TO REALISE THAT PALESTINIAN AND ARAB NATIONALISM HAS FAILED TOTALLY TO DELIVER. INDEED RIGHT HERE AND RIGHT NOW ARAB REGIMES ARE SUPPING WITH THE ZIONIST ISRAELI DEVIL IN NORMALISATION TREATIES INCLUSIVE OF EGYPT, JORDAN, BAHRAIN, UAE, SUDAN AND MOROCCO. WITH OTHERS AT VARIOUS STAGES OF DOING SO. SO THEIR OWN SIDE OR SHOULD IT BE THEIR OWN TRIBE ARE LETTING THEM DOWN.
GIVEN THESE REALITIES IT LOOKS AS THOUGH ONLY AN GLOBAL ISLAMIC LIBERATION ARMY CAN COME TO THE RESCUE WHICH MOBILISES MUSLIMS GLOBALLY. THIS IS BECAUSE ALL THE EXISTING PLAYERS CAN NOT OR WILL NOT DELIVER. MAY THIS BLESSED RAMADAN 1444 WHICH THE ENEMIES OF ISLAM WANT TO BESPOIL BE THE HARBINGER OF THE NEW DAWN.

ISRAELI FORCES ATTACK PALESTINIAN WORSHIPPERS AT
AL AQSA MOSQUE DURING RAMADAN PRAYERS
The Arab League is set to hold an emergency meeting to discuss an Israeli police raid on the
Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem that left at least 12 Palestinians injured, as Israeli Prime Miniser Benjamin Netanyahu said he was working to “maintain the status quo” at the holy site.
The Arab League meeting has been called by Jordan, Egypt and Palestinian officials, with tensions remaining high in Jerusalem since Israeli police attacked worshippers in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound overnight on Wednesday, during the holy month of Ramadan.
The raids continued into the morning when Israeli forces were once again seen assaulting and pushing Palestinians out of the compound and preventing them from praying – before Israelis were allowed in under police protection. The League had earlier condemned the attack, with Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit saying in a statement: “The extremist approaches that control the policy of the Israeli government will lead to widespread confrontations with the Palestinians if they are not put to an end.” At least 400 Palestinians were arrested on Wednesday and remain in Israeli custody, according to Palestinian officials. They are being held at a police station in Atarot in occupied East Jerusalem. Palestinian witnesses said Israeli forces used excessive force including stun grenades and tear gas, causing suffocation injuries to the worshippers, and beatings with batons and rifles.
The Palestinian Red Crescent reported that three of the injured people were transferred to hospital. It also said in a statement that Israeli forces prevented its medics from reaching Al-Aqsa.The raids continued until Wednesday morning when Israeli forces were once again seen assaulting and pushing Palestinians out of the mosque compound and preventing them from praying, before Israelis were allowed in under police protection.“I was sitting on a chair reciting [the Quran],” an elderly woman told the Reuters news agency while sitting outside the mosque, struggling to catch her breath. “They hurled stun grenades, one of them hit my chest,” she said as she began to cry.
Israeli police said in a statement that they were forced to enter the compound after “masked agitators” locked themselves inside the mosque with fireworks, sticks and stones. “When the police entered, stones were thrown at them and fireworks were fired from inside the mosque by a large group of agitators,” the statement said, adding that a police officer was wounded in the leg.In a statement issued later on Wednesday, Netanyahu said that he was trying to calm the situation at Al-Aqsa.
“Israel is committed to maintaining freedom of worship, freedom of access to all religions and the status quo and will not allow violent extremists to change that,” Netanyahu said.Tension has already been high in occupied East Jerusalem and West Bank for months. There are fears of further violence as important religious festivals – the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan and the Jewish Passover – converge.
Al Jazeera’s Natasha Ghoneim said that the attacks were anticipated as there have been calls on social media urging Palestinians to come to Al-Aqsa and “defend it from the occupiers”.
A number of Jews are expected to visit the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound during routine visiting hours of non-Muslims. “People who usually visit are nationalists with very conservative ideology and although the Jews are not allowed to pray inside the compound, their mere presence is a sensitive topic,” Ghoneim reported from occupied East Jerusalem.
Palestinian groups condemned the latest attacks on worshippers, which they described as a crime. Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh said in a statement “What happened in Jerusalem is a major crime against the worshipers. Prayer in Al-Aqsa Mosque is not with the permission of the [Israeli] occupation, but rather it is our right. “Al-Aqsa is for the Palestinians and for all Arabs and Muslims, and the raiding of it is a spark of revolution against the occupation,” he added.

‘Unprecedented crime’
Confrontations at Al-Aqsa, the third-holiest shrine in Islam and the most sacred site in Judaism – in which it is referred to as the Temple Mount – have sparked deadly cross-border wars between Israel and Gaza’s Hamas rulers in the past – the last being in 2021. Hamas condemned the latest raid as “an unprecedented crime” and called on Palestinians in the West Bank “to go en masse to the Al-Aqsa mosque to defend it”.

After the violence at Al-Aqsa, several rockets were fired from northern Gaza towards Israel. The Israeli army said five rockets were intercepted by the aerial defence system around the city of Sderot in southern Israel and that four others had fallen in uninhabited areas.
Israeli planes attacked multiple sites in Gaza, striking targets at a “military site” west of the city and a site in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the centre of the strip, according to Al Jazeera’s Maram Humaid in Gaza. In Gaza, dozens of demonstrators took to the streets overnight, burning tyres. “We swear to defend and protect the Al-Aqsa mosque,” the AFP news agency reported them as saying.
Palestinians see Al-Aqsa as one of the few national symbols over which they retain some element of control. They are, however, fearful of a slow encroachment by Jewish groups akin to what has happened at the Ibrahimi Mosque (Cave of the Patriarchs) in Hebron, where half of the mosque was turned into a synagogue after 1967. Palestinians are also worried about far-right Israeli movements that want to demolish the Islamic structures in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound and build a Jewish temple in their place.
