Do you know why every mauzie on this earth is taught to hate #Jews ?
The richest #Jewish tribe Banu Qaynuqa, who were craftsmen, goldsmiths, money lenders & traders lived in two fortresses in the south-western part of Yathrib, now called Medina.

These #Jews were in close contact with Meccan merchants, supported pre izlamic Arab tribe Khazraj & others in Yathrib in their conflicts with their Arab rivals & hence resented Mohmmad’s attack on the Quraishs of Mecca in December 623, on 17th day of Ramadan (battle of badr)

To get rid of opposing #Jews , Prophet in 624, raided & besieged fortesses of Banu Qaynuqa for 15 days & expelled them from Yathrib…confiscated & divided their property, arms & tools etc among his followers & took for himself, 1/5 share of the spoils.. “

#JerusalemDay is supposed to be a day of celebration. But Palestinians had other plans in mind. Early morning they stocked piles of giant stones and metal bars, to use later today against visitors and policemen on #TempleMount and around #AlAqsa.
This is some raw footage from last night: piles of giant rocks around the #AlAqsaMosque compound.
I’m amazed how Palestinians are proud of this footage and actually shared it numerous times online.

This is a look from the inside of the #AlAqsaMosque courtyard: the giant stones and metal objects are being thrown by Palestinians at visitors at #TempleMount.
I have read the entire #Israel-#Palestinian peace plan and my advice to revelers is not to pop the champagne anytime soon -- "peace" is not around the corner. Here's a quick assessment. 1/11
I congratulate the plan's authors for injecting some realism into conventional views of this conflict. It is realistic for the Jordan River to be Israel's security barrier. It is realistic for hundreds of thousands of Israelis in West Bank not to be forced to relocate. 2/11
But they took those & other principles and stretched them beyond all recognition. #Israeli security control of #JordanValley became full sovereignty; not uprooting hundreds of thousands of settlers became not uprooting even 1 settler. There are no Solomonic judgments here. 3/11
“Other than breathing, it appears all #Jewish rights on the Temple Mount have been stripped away” >> my @LegInsurrection post from 2015. Very sad that not much has changed since then 😢 #TishaBAv legalinsurrection.com/2015/07/jewish…
@LegInsurrection This year the Waqf, Jordanian authorities & the PA did everything they could to prevent devout #Jews from visiting the holiest site to #Judaism on #TishaBAv & ensured that violent clashes would occur on this holy day for Muslims & Jews 😡 #ReligiousFreedom #TempleMount #Prayer 1/
@LegInsurrection Until #Jews can freely visit (& pray!) at their holy sites w/out needing armed security escorts & w/out fearing for their lives, there will never be peace 😢 #coexistence #TishaBAv 2/
