Aqsa Mosque Preacher Calls For Defending Jerusalem Before It Is Too Late
14 September 2009
Sheikh Hamid Al-Beitawi, the Aqsa Mosque preacher, appealed to all Muslims to necessarily move to defend the occupied city of Jerusalem and the Aqsa Mosque before it is too late. Sheikh Beitawi warned in a press statement to Al-Quds media center that Jerusalem is exposed to a frenzied Judaization campaign and the number of Jerusalemite people decreased especially after the building of the apartheid wall that separated Jerusalem from its villages and neighborhoods. “We may not find now inside the Old City except tens of thousands of citizens, where the IDs were withdrawn from Jerusalemite citizens and their homes were demolished at the pretext of unlicensed construction. High taxes were also imposed on storekeepers within the wall of the Old City and many Jerusalemite institutions were closed,” the preacher noted. He added that the biggest violation committed against the Aqsa Mosque is banning Palestinians from the West Bank from visiting it and praying inside it. Al-Quds center calls on Obama to stop US organizations from funding settlement Meanwhile, Al-Quds center for social and economic rights on Saturday called on the administration of US president Barack Obama to hold accountable all organizations and enterprises active in the US which fund settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian lands. The center underlined that these organizations finance the construction of settlements in occupied Palestine especially in the holy city of Jerusalem, where part of these funds are used to seize the homes and real estate of Palestinian citizens as happened lately in Silwan area and the Old City when the Israeli occupation authority (IOA) seized the homes of more than 100 Palestinian families. The center added that in violation of US law, many organizations and enterprises active in the US, most notably CM company that is owned by the American Jewish millionaire Irving Moskovitch, provide full funding for all settlement activities in Jerusalem. The center noted that Moskovitch financed lately dozens of suspicious real estate sales in the Palestinian neighborhoods surrounding the Old City and all these deals were especially funded from the gambling halls owned by him in the US.
