Palestine: Zionist police storm Al-Aqsa Mosque

Deputy Knesset Speaker Moshe Feiglin forced his way into Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem early Monday under heavy protection by the Zionist police amid clashes between Muslim worshippers and occupation troops inside the holy complex.

"The Israeli police allowed Feiglin to storm the mosque's courtyards under their protection," Sheikh Azzam al-Khatib, head of the Jordan-run Organization for Muslim Endowments and Al-Aqsa Affairs said.

The intrusion came amid clashes between young Muslim worshippers and Zionist police which stormed the holy site in the early hours of the morning and tried to forcibly evict the Palestinian worshippers, eyewitnesses said.

"The Israeli police are still besieging an unspecified number of worshippers inside al-Qibali Mosque [inside the compound] amid firing of stun grenades and teargas at the worshippers within," al-Khatib added as sounds of teargas firing resounded in the background.

Palestinian NGO Al-Aqsa Foundation for Endowments and Heritage, meanwhile, said that at least 58 Jewish settlers stormed the holy site – also under protection of Zionist police.

"The occupation forces are besieging al-Qibali Mosque and firing a shower of teargas canisters and stun grenades at the worshippers who took refuge in the mosque following the dawn prayers when the Israeli forces stormed the site," the foundation said in a statement.

The Zionist troops also closed all gates of the compound and barred Palestinian employees and Muslim religious students from entering the holy site, it added.

"The military intrusion in such an early hour is a dangerous escalation," the NGO stated.

According to an eyewitness, the Israeli police stormed the site in the early morning while firing stun grenades and teargas, leaving over 10 worshippers with temporary asphyxiation.

The storming by the occupation police came after the force personnel imposed restrictions on the entry of Muslim worshippers into the holy site.

On Saturday, Feiglin called for storming Al-Aqsa Mosque compound on Monday on the occasion of Sukkot, one of the three Jewish pilgrimage festivals, which started on Wednesday and lasts for a week.

In the invitation posted on his web site, Feiglin called on Jews to gather outside the mosque compound at 6:30am on Monday before storming the site.

The Zionist entity occupied East Jerusalem during the 1967 Middle East War. It later annexed the holy city in 1980, claiming it as the capital of the self-proclaimed Jewish state – a move never recognized by the international community.

Meanwhile the so-called Global Donors convene in Cairo to blackmail the Palestinians threatening to withhold Gaza aid if they continue resisting to keep their cause alive.

Unconfirmed information from the West Ban k: Israeli companies have already been awarded the tenders for the supply of cement and other building materials, standing to reap billions of dollars in the process, Paying the Nazi Jewish state for the destruction they have wreaked, rather than pay for it, giving the Zionists a clear incentive to continue the cycle of 'destroy and rebuild'

No surprise.

Israel consent needed
Israel was not invited to the conference but Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said any effort would need his government's consent.

"Gaza cannot be rebuilt without the cooperation and participation of Israel," Lieberman said in an interview with news website Ynet, though he added that Israel would be "receptive" to plans for "the reconstruction of civilian infrastructure in Gaza."

Will Cairo (The honest broker) give "Israel" what she failed to achieve by force??
