GAZA, (PIC)-- The Palestine Scholars League (PSL) has expressed surprise at the Arab and Islamic silence towards the Israeli calls for banning the Adhan (call for prayers) in Jerusalem and Palestinian land occupied in 1948 at the pretext that it "disturbs" the public.

The PSL in a statement on Saturday said that the Arab and Islamic silence had "apparently encouraged the Israeli occupation authority (IOA) to go ahead in its judaization schemes of occupied Jerusalem".

The League also urged all those concerned with stability in the region to curb the IOA and its violations of the Aqsa Mosque, demolition and displacement of Jerusalemites.

Denunciation is no longer valid to deter the IOA, it said, demanding practical steps that stipulates among other things coordinating Arab and Islamic positions and unifying efforts to protect occupied Jerusalem and its holy shrines and inhabitants
