Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Muslim rioters stone police on Temple Mount

Jun 13, 2014 11:01 am By Robert Spencer

“Then on Tuesday, Muslims visitors to the Temple Mount formed a riotous mob on the inner side of the Rambam Gate, prompting Israeli police to submit to their violent outbursts and ban Jewish entry.” A very bad precedent. Submit to violent intimidation and you’ll get more violent intimidation. But no one seems to remember that nowadays.

“Muslim Rioters Stone Police on Temple Mount,” by Ari Yashar, Arutz Sheva, June 13, 2014:

Twenty masked Muslim rioters on Friday pelted police forces with stones on the Temple Mount. The attack occurred at the Rambam (Mughrabi) Gate, the only point of access for Jewish visitors to the holiest site in Judaism.

The twenty launched their rock barrage at the end of Muslim prayers on Friday.

Police forces broke in through the Gate, pushing the rioters back into the Al-Aqsa Mosque where they took cover.

The situation is currently reported as being under control, with visitors being dispersed from the site.

Muslim violence on the holy site has seen a sharp skyrocketing this week, with police responding each time by blocking Jewish access.

On Sunday, Jewish visitors were removed from the site by police through the Chain Gate on the western side of the Temple Mount, after Muslim rioters threw stones and shoes at them from the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The script repeated itself on Monday, when police removed a Jewish group consisting of a groom and his entourage through the Gate of the Tribes, after Muslim visitors tried to corner them from different sides in a threatening manner.

Then on Tuesday, Muslims visitors to the Temple Mount formed a riotous mob on the inner side of the Rambam Gate, prompting Israeli police to submit to their violent outbursts and ban Jewish entry. The raucous mob was caught on video.

Yehuda Glick, head of the LIBA Movement for Freedom of Movement on the Temple Mount, condemned the police submission to Muslim violence.

“Someone has to wake up before there’s a tragedy. We can’t give a prize to rioters. The barrage in recent days doesn’t bode well; the government has to order the police to take serious preventative actions before this dangerous snowball explodes in all our faces,” warned Glick.

    Good timing. Received this from Gatestone yesterday re. Pope’s visit to “Palestine”/Israel. Seems he wasn’t too impressed by muslims’ behaviour:

    “The muezzin of the central Bethlehem mosque, in a tactless and deliberate act of provocation, used the loudspeaker to call the Muslims to prayer at the mosque, interfering with the mass and preventing the Pope from being heard…
    The second act occurred when the leaders of the Palestinian Authority took the Pope to the separation fence near Bethlehem. The fence was erected by the Israeli government to prevent suicide bombers from infiltrating Israeli territory. The Pope stood there, silent, looking uncomfortably at the fresh graffiti sprayed the previous night about “the liberation of Palestine.” His Palestinian hosts called it the “apartheid wall” — a trick that was not only transparently false but an insult to the leader of the Catholic Church”

    Islamic ecumenism … can involve violence and intimidation.

    Side note, the Australian government has evidently re-designate East Jerusalem and other Israeli controlled territories as “disputed” from “occupied”. Needless to say, arab governments are jumping up and down and have threatened sanctions against Australia.

    Kick all Muslims out and build the third temple.

    There is no place, in the entirety of Israel, that a Jew should not go, nor should there be a place where he/she is afraid to go.

    It is time the Temple Mount was cleared of these rabble rousers, and run by an Israeli Authority, which would guarantee access to all followers and people of the Book.
