Hamas has issued a statement calling on Palestinians to “rally around al-Aqsa” to protect the holy site from “mass invasion”. The terror organization adds that the “youths of the intifada” will not yield to Israeli efforts to prevent them from entering the site.
According to a Ynet report, there has also been a short documentary posted to social media that claims Israel is carrying out underground excavations in the area of the Mughrabi Gate entrance to Har Habayis. One speaker on the documentary is the head of the Israel Islamic Association Sheikh Raid Salah, who warns of secret Israel excavations and he then calls to “stop the Israeli attacks against al-Aqsa”.
Salah is well-known for his ties to Hamas and he has sat in Israeli prison on numerous occasions because of his terrorist ties. He calls on the Government of Jordan to use the media to expose Israel’s activities and the ongoing “Israeli aggression”.
Adding to the incitement, a photo of Har Habayis activist Yehuda Glick with a red circle around him, targeting him, is once again being circulated in PA social media. B’chasdei Hashem Glick survived an attempted assassination connected to his activities to permit Jews freedom of worship on Har Habayis.
Gedolei Yisrael over the generations and the Chief Rabbinate of Israel prohibit visiting Har Habayis

“B’chasdei Hashem Glick survived an attempted assassination connected to his activities to permit Jews freedom of worship on Har Habayis. Gedolei Yisrael over the generations and the Chief Rabbinate of Israel prohibit visiting Har Habayis…”
The words of the article alone make clear why Glick is a marked man. Not only do his actions jeopardize the tzibur by diverting the security forces from protecting against the terrorists, he deliberately goes against the words of gadolim who prohibit what he advocates. He was spared once….he should learn his lesson.
