25 May 2009 DOHA, (PIC)-- Sheikh Raed Salah, the
leader of the Islamic Movement in 1948 occupied
Palestine, has warned that Israeli premier Benjamin
Netanyahu was determined to demolish the Aqsa Mosque
in order to build the alleged Jewish temple.
He told a seminar in Doha on Sunday night that during
Netanyahu’s first premiership back in 1996 he did not
deny what Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak had
revealed on his intention to build the temple.
The Sheikh recalled that Netanyahu had openly
inaugurated a tunnel underneath the holy Aqsa Mosque
in 1996, which triggered large-scale demonstrations.
Israeli violent response killed 90 Palestinians.
He expressed concern that the few coming years would
be decisive in terms whether Jerusalem and the Aqsa
would ever continue to exist.
Salah said that what is happening in Jerusalem
nowadays target judaizing the entire city and the
gradual demolition of the Aqsa Mosque.
Israel has already started preparing the world
community for the coming events, noting that it hosts
3,000 tourists every day in the Aqsa and “poisons”
their minds with the allegation that Muslims had built
that Mosque on the ruins of their temple.
Italian senator condemns world
silence towards Gaza siege
Italian senator Fernando Rossi, who is leading the
“Hope” convoy of medical assistance to the Gaza Strip,
has denounced the Israeli siege of Gaza and the world
silence towards such a humanitarian crisis.
Addressing a joint press conference with Palestinian
labor and social affairs minister Ahmed Al-Kurd in
Rafah on Monday evening, Rossi said that he or she
that does not refuse this siege is not a free person.
He said that the “Hope” convoy faced various
difficulties over the past three weeks and especially
in the past couple of days when the Egyptian
authorities refused to allow it access into Gaza but
finally agreed to let it enter.
For his part, Kurd welcomed the convoy and called for
greater efforts to end the Israeli oppressive siege of
Gaza.
“Our call on the entire world is enough to the
collective punishment of this (Palestinian) people,
this siege contravenes all international treaties,”
the minister asserted.
He expressed disappointment because Egypt banned two
thirds of the convoy members from entering Gaza and
hoped that it would allow them access on Tuesday.
