(4,141 posts)Arabs were attacked and chairs were thrown at them by a crowd Thursday night at Independence Square in Netanya. One of the victims, a resident of Qalansuwa, was injured and rescued by police called to the scene and required medical treatment. Chants of 'Death to Arabs' and 'Netanya residents are taking care of the Arabs'.

You want the freedom to pray on the Temple Mount oberliner ......well that is what has led us to this .
"You want the freedom to pray on the Temple Mount oberliner ......well that is what has led us to this."
Now that's cold.
So stabbing people is okay, because people want to pray on the Temple Mount.
What is wrong with you?

Unlike you, and many other posters here, where every event is completely unconnected to anything else, and can be discussed and thought about as unrelated to anything, Azurnoir recognizes the reality that pretty much everything is connected.

(4,141 posts)Conversation over ?
Strange how you did not pick up on ... " From Jerusalem to Jaffa ...to Tel Aviv and now Netanya. "
Probably you have no idea how to find these places on a map ....with the exception of Jerusalem of course
The riots that took place in Jaffa have not even been mentioned on here ....but it shook Tel Aviv'ians out of their complacency ......
Wednesday saw some of the worst rioting in Jaffa between Jews and Arabs since the second intifada.

(12,606 posts)They don't want to pray. They want to take over, those poor victims.
Like anything that Israel does WRT the Palestinians, share = take.
The Palestinians are fed up with this constant assault of the poor victims who just want to "pray."
Enough is enough. The poor victims can pray at the Kotel or fuck off and stop assaulting Al Asqua Mount.
oberliner
(58,724 posts)What are you even talking about at this point?
There is no one anywhere who refers to anything as "Al Asqua Mount" - even assuming you meant "Al Aqsa Mount".
I am starting to get the sense that you don't even know what these places are.
For instance, do you know the difference between Haram al-Sharif and the Al Aqsa Mosque?
R. Daneel Olivaw
(12,606 posts)Both geek tragedy and I knew. You ran and hid.
What an embarrassment your post was.
There's a Mosque on the Mount. There has been a mosque for some time: 1,400 years. There have been a few mosques on that location.
There is no temple. Israel, and its fawning mumblers should get over it and build elsewhere.
oberliner
(58,724 posts)The mosque is built on the ruins of Royal Stoa basilica.
azurnoir
(45,850 posts)The Royal Stoa was destroyed by the Roman army during the sack of Jerusalem in 70 CE. Its site on the Temple Mount esplanade is currently inaccessible to archaeologists. However, artifacts from the Stoa have been recovered both from excavations at the foot of the platform and in secondary use in later constructions. This evidence has confirmed details given in the accounts of the historian Josephus, and has also allowed comparison of the Royal Stoa's decoration with that used in other, contemporaneous monumental buildings.

oberliner
(58,724 posts)There are many actual books cited in that Wikipedia entry that I would encourage you to read.
In any case, the mosque was built on the ruins of that basilica.

King_David
(14,851 posts)For some reason the poster thinks it's taking a pro Palestinian position or something by attempting to be more Palestinian and more "radical " than those who live there or have some kind of contact there.
But in the process is absolutely clueless.
"Al Aqsa Mount" ? nobody except for THIS poster even knows WTF that is.
R. Daneel Olivaw
(12,606 posts)Brooklyn dream of building a temple there, but they do a pretty good job of harassing the local population cause they just gotta pray.
Face it, king. There is no temple there. It does not exist. If it did exist there it has been gone for 14-15 centuries.
It's Al Asqua Mount.
oberliner
(58,724 posts)Muslims refer to the Temple Mount as The Noble Sanctuary.
Do you know why that is?
R. Daneel Olivaw
(12,606 posts)and who knows where they really stood to begin with?
King_David
(14,851 posts)He knows the Jewish narrative that there was a temple there is not true and incorrect and knows now the Muslim narrative is true and correct, the ascension to heaven by Muhammed and all from a horse etc etc.

They have the Kotel. Live with that and stop trying to take Al Asqa Mosque from the Muslims.

(30,109 posts)...controlling the Mount.
In fact, Jordan sent at least 100 more troops before the recent riots at the Mount a few months ago. Israel did nothing to stop that, nor did they complain. Jordan has done nothing to keep the quiet there.
You've fallen for the incitement. Abbas and his cronies are doing the same thing Hitler's Mufti and Arafat's uncle Husayni did back in the 1920's and 30's when he screamed about Jews plotting to take over al-Aqsa.
Know your history.

(45,850 posts)of course in that case it wasn't terrorism at all, he's just a youth with psychiatric issues according to Israeli authorities
Israeli youth stabs four Arabs in Dimona attack
The suspect, who reports said has a criminal background and a history of psychiatric issues, confessed to the stabbing, saying that he thought all Arabs were terrorists.

azurnoir
(45,850 posts)in motive as opposed to terrorism which is often used to justify shooting first when the suspect is Palestinian
or IOW Jewish attacker=psychiatric problems
Arab/Palestinian attacker=terrorist
we see that same sort of thing in the US too depending on the race of the attacker
R. Daneel Olivaw
(12,606 posts)modern IDF / IPD in that they can percieve the intent or motives of the attacker and use summary judgement to cull the terrorist threat.
It just so happens that Palestinians fall into that category.

(12,606 posts)suspect instead of a terrorist as well as the police not shooting him on sight.
I wonder if the IDF and Israeli police consider emotional issues when they gun down Palestinian terrorists.

(6,171 posts)Unfortunately, I don't know which sources to trust anymore concerning who is attacking who. All I can see is that things are going pear-shaped, and that while both sides are to blame, it's Netanyahu's tough stance that causes most of the deaths.
