OCCUPIED JERUSALEM — The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Sunday stormed the courtyards of the Aqsa Mosque and cordoned off its premises where dozens of Palestinian worshipers are still maintaining a vigil and refusing to leave for fear of attacks by Israeli extremists. Eyewitnesses said that more than 200 Israeli policemen have encircled the Aqsa Mosque since the early morning hours and demanded the worshipers come out, while the Palestinians inside the mosque used the amplifiers of the Mosque to urge fellow citizens to head to the Old City of occupied Jerusalem to defend it against Israeli violations. Many unruly Israeli settlers were allowed by policemen to walk around in the Mosque courtyards. 12 Palestinian citizens including an elderly woman outside reportedly suffered tear gas suffocation as they were trying to reach the Aqsa Mosque. Meanwhile, the neighborhoods of the Old City of Jerusalem saw clashes between young Palestinian men and Israeli troops. Numbers of protesters were reportedly rounded up. Other Palestinian citizens living in the neighborhoods near the gates of the Aqsa Mosque complained that the IOF troops stormed and ransacked their homes, and used the roofs to observe the movement of people. For his part, Hamas spokesman Yousuf Farahat on Sunday appealed to all Muslim scholars and leaders to urgently move to defend Jerusalem and the Aqsa Mosque against Israeli crimes. In a press release, Farahat noted that the feeble official Arab stand is the umbrella under which the Israeli occupation is working and setting schemes to Judaize the whole city of Jerusalem. In a related context, the Israeli occupation authority (IOA) announced the launch of a 30-month project to fully change the Arab landmarks and sites in the holy city. Al-Jazeera website said that Israel claims that this project is intended for developing the infrastructure of the city, but in fact it is aimed to obliterate its Arab identity and turn it into a Jewish religious area. For its part, the Israeli Maariv newspaper warned that the winds of war are blowing from the north and castigated the Israeli premier for his failure to control the angry protests against his decision to seize the Ibrahimi Mosque in Al-Khalil city. It opined that if there had been negotiations with Syria, the Iranian president would not have visited Damascus and the danger of war would have subsided. ###

Revisionist History Books Banned by Amazon
By Michael Hoffman • Unz Review • August 25, 2018
On August 13, 2018 Amazon banned Judaism’s Strange Gods: Revised and Expanded, which was published in 2011 and sold by Amazon for the past seven years. Along with the much larger study, Judaism Discovered, (sold by Amazon since 2008), it has had an international impact both as a softcover volume as well as a digital book circulating on the Amazon Kindle.
Sales to India, Japan and the Middle East were rapidly growing. The digital Kindle format is particularly important for the free circulation of books because it bypasses borders and customs and hurdles over the prohibitive cost of shipping which the US Postal Service imposed on mail to overseas destinations several years ago (eliminating economical surface mail).
Amazon has also banned The Great Holocaust Trial: The Landmark Battle for the Right to Doubt the West’s Most Sacred Relic (sold by Amazon since 2010).
These volumes maintain a high standard of scholarly excellence, had a majority of favorable reviews by Amazon customers, are free of hatred and bigotry and have sold thousands of copies on Amazon. Out of the blue we were told that suddenly “Amazon KDP” discovered that the books are in violation of Amazon’s “content guidelines.” Asking for documentation of the charge results in no response. It is enough that the accusation has been tendered. The accused are guilty until proved innocent, although how proof of innocence is presented is anyone’s guess. There is no appeals process. This is what is known as “Tech Tyranny.”
There is a nationwide purge underway that amounts to a new McCarthyism — blacklisting and banning politically incorrect speech and history books under the rubric of “hate speech” accusations, initiated in part by two Zionist thought police organizations, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). It’s a flimsy pretext for censoring controversial scholarly books that can’t be refuted.
In addition to our books being hate-free, we note that there are hundreds of hate-filled Zionist and rabbinic books brimming with ferocious bigotry for Palestinians, Germans and goyim in general, which are sold by Amazon. … continue

Pingback by Storming al-Aqsa « Believe In Something | February 28, 2010 |
The whole of the platform of the Haram Sharif is considered a mosque, even though there are also those two main mosques on it (and a couple of smaller ones). So here one has these armed louts wandering all over somebody’s religious area. The analogy for RCs would thus be having, say, Libyan troops behaving in the same way actually inside the Church of St Peter. Except, the noteworthy difference, Muslim troops wouldn’t be so disrespectful of a Christian church.

It is more as if they took lessons from the Bolshevik Jews, and are applying them to Palestine…..the Bolsheviks were far worse than the Germans.

@Mick – The Jewish/Polish capos were the most effective killers in the German concentration camps. The people of the Baltic states also committed crime fighting for the Germans.
The Bolsheviks didn’t kill people, but stupid policies let to starvation of millions. Sure Stalin was a half Jew like Hitler.

In response to those that feel there is some misrepresentation involving the picture of the Dome of the Rock I have added a map which shows that the two sites are indeed adjacent and it is my opinion that the Palestine Information Center did NOT engage in deception by using the picture above along with the article.

That’s only because Jews think they’re the only humans on earth, and everyone else was created as slaves for them. The Jewish agenda of ruling the world with an iron rod, and the enslavement of everyone else, and their attempts to make it so, is what causes anti Jewish feelings.
Jew haters?? Wouldn’t you hate it if someone came and threw you out of your house, and stole you bank account like the Jews in control of America’s economy have ruined the economy of America??
