A prominent Saudi Arabian lawyer called “to free the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the Palestinian brats,” Arutz Sheva reports.
Abdul Rahman al-Lahim, who has a quarter of a million Twitter followers, posted his plea on Twitter Monday in response to the cursing of visitors to the mosque from Arab states following the signing of the Abraham Accords.
“It is very important that the Emirates, Bahrain and Israel seek after the peace agreements to find a tool to liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the Palestinian brats, in a way that will ensure that visitors to Al-Aqsa are protected from Palestinian bullying,” he wrote in Arabic.
The mosque is located on the Temple Mount – Judaism’s holiest site and Islam’s third holiest – in the Old City of Jerusalem, which was liberated by the IDF during the 1967 Six Day War, when Israel defended itself from the surrounding Arab countries bent on its annihilation.
Since then, the Temple Mount has been under the auspices of the Jordanian Waqf (Muslim Trust), although Israel maintains security control. Nevertheless, Palestinian Arabs walk freely on the site, praying at the mosque as well as rioting, playing soccer and destroying archaeological evidence of the ancient Jewish ties to Jerusalem.
Jews and other non-Muslims are prohibited from praying on the Mount. PA President Mahmoud Abbas, among others, has incited Palestinians against Jewish visitors to the site.
Al-Lahim called the Palestinian presence at the Temple Mount “the rape of Al Aqsa.”
