U.S. Muslim Leaders Promote Nationwide Protests Despite Israeli Concessions

19

This reveals to anyone who might not have known already what the one of the primary objectives of these Muslim groups in America really is: undermining and ultimately destroying Israel. No concessions will ever be sufficient. For these Muslim groups, they are all just stepping stones to the total destruction of Israel. That’s why Netanyahu should have held firm: his concession will only encourage more violence.

“U.S. Islamists Promote Nationwide Protests Despite Israeli Concessions,” IPT News, July 28, 2017:

In solidarity with Palestinian factions and terrorist groups, pro-Palestinian Islamist organizations in the United States are gearing up for more anti-Israel protests today, even though the original cause for their anger has been rescinded.

Israel removed metal detectors Tuesday which were installed near an entrance to Jerusalem’s Al Aqsa Mosque in response to a deadly July 14th terrorist attack. Terrorists managed to smuggle their guns into the mosque the morning of the attack. Yet Israel’s acquiescence has not silenced its main detractors.

Still, rallies planned throughout the country are being pushed by American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), and Jewish Voice for Peace. Similar gatherings last week featured harsh anti-Israel rhetoric.

In a published set of talking points, AMP claimed the removal of metal detectors “doesn’t mean that the sanctity of the Noble Sanctuary is guaranteed, nor that Israel will not try other methods in the future to alter the status quo in the Aqsa mosque.”

This message builds on years of false Palestinian claims that Israel is keeping Muslims from praying at the mosque.

The metal detectors were installed only after Palestinian terrorists attacked and killed two police officers.

U.S.-based Islamist figures and groups are even challenging Israel’s right to install additional surveillance cameras on the Temple Mount – the compound that houses the mosque and site of the last Jewish temple. While enhanced surveillance measures often follow terrorist attacks, any action to improve Israel’s national security – no matter how minor – is met with a disproportionate anger from groups opposed to Israel’s existence in any form.

AMP held an “All Out for Al Aqsa” rally last Saturday in Times Square, featuring speakers who called for Israel’s destruction and radical chants from the crowd.

“You [Israel] are a hypocrisy state that will eventually be, will eventually go away. Israel will not last long,” said AMP-New Jersey president and national board member Sayel Kayed.

The rally featured similarly threatening chants made in Arabic.

“With life, with blood/we sacrifice for you Al Aqsa” and “the gate of Al Aqsa is of iron [Hadid], no one can open it but a martyr [Shahid].” These chants, translated by the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT), show how U.S. Islamist groups cultivate an atmosphere where terrorism and violence against Israel is openly encouraged.

“There is only one solution; Intifada, revolution… “Long live the Intifada”.

Other anti-Israel student groups are joining the fray. Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) at the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign (UIUC) posted a statement on Facebook last Friday inciting violence, the Algemeiner reported.

“Long live the Intifada!,” the group exclaimed, adding in Arabic “Long live resistance,” words commonly invoked by anti-Israel activists referring to violent uprisings and terrorism against Israel.

The growing anti-Israel hysteria permeated the Islamic Center of Davis in California July 21, when American imam Ammar Shahin delivered an anti-Semitic sermon.

“Oh Allah, liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the filth of the Jews. Oh Allah, destroy those who closed the Al-Aqsa Mosque…Oh Allah, count them one by one and annihilate them down to the very last one. Do not spare any of them,” preached Shahin, the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) reports.

Council on American-Islamic Relations Executive Director Nihad Awad did not comment on the Shahin sermon. But he did urge all imams to talk about the issue, saying “Israeli occupiers are suppressing religious freedom in #Jerusalem.”

Again, this is purportedly over metal detectors and security cameras following a deadly terrorist shooting.

CAIR’s St. Louis chapter organized a march last Sunday that cast metal detectors and security cameras as a “siege” of the mosque and featured chants of “free Al-Aqsa.”

CAIR’s Georgia chapter is co-hosting an anti-Israel event, with the far-left Jewish Voice for Peace outside the Israeli Consulate in Atlanta.

AMP alerted its network to additional nationwide protests, including today at noon outside the Israeli embassy in Washington D.C. There is also a planned demonstration the same day in downtown Chicago at 4:30 p.m. and in New York City. On Sunday, a “March for Al Aqsa” is scheduled to take place at the Wilshire Federal Building in Los Angeles at 3:00 p.m.

U.S.-based Islamists are joining Palestinian factions from across the political spectrum who continue to call on Palestinians to protest against Israel on Friday.

For the second straight week, Hamas has called for a “day of rage” while Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah incites violence by encouraging its supporters to “intensify” confrontations with Israeli authorities throughout the West Bank and Jerusalem. Abbas went a step further on Wednesday and gave the green light for Fatah’s Tanzim terrorist group to organize mass demonstrations on Friday.

On July 14, the Muslim Brotherhood led the way with calls for an “Islamic Intifada” – a violent uprising – against Israel following the day’s deadly Palestinian terrorist attack.

“The Muslim Brotherhood calls upon the sons of the Islamic Umma (nation), its Ulema (Muslim religious scholars), figures and blocs for an Intifada in order to stop the (alleged Israeli) violations of holy sites…,” the Brotherhood wrote on its official Arabic-language website and translated by the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT)….

“Israeli occupiers are suppressing religious freedom”

“Religious freedom”!

Muslims have learned to use the Western system against Western “values” to advance an agenda. They don’t have to use knives and bombs when the local courthouse, full of willing appeasers (lawyers and judges) will do.

A day of reckoning is coming, and Divine retribution will settle the matter of Islam once and for all.

Religious Freedom? Where’s my religious freedom in countries ran by Muslims? Can I carry a Bible in Saudi Arabia? No. Is it safe for me to be a Christian in Egypt? Pakistan? Turkey? Any other hell hole ran by Muslims? I don’t think so.

There’s no doubt we’re in a cultural war with the Left. Europe definitely has problems with Islam and understanding the threat it poses. I do, however, see a ray of hope in The United States. I don’t see The United States surrendering to Islam the way you do. If it does happen, the world would most certainly be in Hell (not a happy place the way you see it) because there won’t be anywhere else to flee to. The murdering hordes of Islam will then turn on their own and destroy themselves.

How about religious freedom for everybody else to pray as they like up there or in Jordan or Saudi Arabia? Religious freedom for these turkey’s only cuts one way it seems.

My “two cents” tells me that this is not about religious freedom, but is about religious hate of all non-Muslims, not just the Jews. I agree that appeasement of people who promote religious hate will never work, as history has proven, and I am disappointed in Netanyahu for his act to appease a people who cannot be appeased. I know that Netanyahu must have had what he thought was good reason to remove what he had done to protect from a second incident, but I am convinced that it falls on deaf ears and blind eyes. The poison that affects the Middle east comes from the belief system, disguised as a religion, that is Islam. To not recognize that is to totally fail to see and understand the truth. Islam was created, not by a loving Deity, but by men who were determined to dominate and control, and pursued power. It is still the same today, almost 1400 years after its creation by the power mongers. Those who support the frightening philosophy that is the doctrine of Islam are the same power hungry personalities that espoused the anti every other religion and belief system that is not Islam. Remember that and you all will be best served. Support those power mongers and you will be crushed. To me it is as simple as that.

Why are the Israelis being deliberately counterproductive? Of all the people, Israelis should know the qur’an, and its repeated and ever increasing hate of everything, especially Israel, more than anyone, Plus, years of experience of lies and continuous grasping theft from every agreement ever signed with any muslim anywhere. Appeasement does not work, Israel, you know that, you can’t please everyone , so, it is now very much time to please yourself.

Gen. MacArthur once said before congress that “Appeasement only begets even stronger demands until the only alternative is war”. Show me one single instance where appeasing Islam has made peace and harmony or any other tyrannical ideology for that matter.

From Ms. Geller: “That’s why Netanyahu should have held firm: his concession will only encourage more violence.”

By not holding firm, PM Netanyahu reveals this about: (1) his internationalist leanings; (2) his trust in the UN; (3) his willingness to appease and get along with forces determined the eliminate Israel and the Jewish people in the name of “peace”; and (4) his unbelief in the prophetic utterances in Scripture declaring that Israel will survive and thrive in the future. He is seeking to please men, not follow the God of Israel.

Had enough? Go to http://www.middleeastradioforum.org, and hear the comments of Jewish nationalist Yoni Tidi (otherwise known as “Yoni the Blogger”) Sunday at 12:00 noon Phoenix time. Yoni tells it as it is regarding the Israeli prime minister. He’s fed up.

What is the point for moslems to pray there if they bow down facing Mecca and lift the a** towards the Dome??.

The Dome will be destroyed by God in anycase:

”For thou hast made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of STRANGERS will be no more; it shall never be rebuilt.”

Isaiah 25:2.

see JVP and BDS, it is about telling the state of israel that the oppression of Palestinians is wrong.
Nothing to do with islame or destroying any zionist state but keep it real clear, there will be no temple on that mount and a return to animal sacrificing. that is neanderthal succinctly put to even consider that zionist want to tear down a global heritage site for rituals.
