Palestinian President Abbas warns of new intifada risk

Two passengers in the auto suffered light injuries and Levlovich died. He has called Iran a “terrorist state” in his campaign against the deal.

A new poll by the respected Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PSR) gives fascinating but troubling insights into changing attitudes among Palestinians during this time of devastation in the Arab Middle East and rightward drift in Israeli politics.

Earlier the same day, they released photos that appeared to show Israeli soldiers pointing guns at the woman and lying her injured body on the ground.

The current conflict suggests a repeat of February 25, 1994, when a US-born Jewish fanatic, Baruch Goldstein, stormed into Al Haram Al Ibrahimi in the Palestinian city of Al Khalil and opened fire. It also signals that Israel believes that there is no effective Palestinian leadership to defend Muslim rights in the area, critics argue.

Erdogan demanded that the worldwide community must exert pressure on Israel to accept the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on pre-1967 borders with east Jerusalem as its capital.

Palestinian Cultural Organisation Malaysia (PCOM) chairman Muslim Imran said the move by the UN General Assembly was vital at a time when Israel was reported to have increased its aggression, especially in the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.

Israeli Police spokesman Mickey Rosenfeld told the ABC the four young children were questioned and then arrested for stone throwing.

Neither side is happy about restrictions on the Temple Mount. The Government wants to ensure its complete dominance over Palestinians, while the extremists wanted to demolish the Mosque, seeking ancient Jewish temples presumably destroyed in 586 BC and AD 70.

Both Israelis and Palestinians have been attempting to challenge the tenuous status quo on the Mount. In the West Bank, meanwhile, Hamas’s support rose from 32% to 35% since June, while Fatah, which controls the PA government in the West Bank, dropped slightly from 36% to 34%.

An Israeli man was also killed in Jerusalem when Palestinians pelted his vehicle with rocks.

Researchers from the PSR conducted face-to-face interviews with nearly 1,300 people for the survey, in 120 different locations in the West Bank and Gaza Strip between 17 and 19 September.

The two leaders agreed that Israel’s insistence on expanding Jewish settlements in Palestinian territory was against global law.

The conflicting claims to the holy site in Jerusalem’s Old City have frequently spilled over into violence. The highlighting of the Negev is especially timely given that renewed efforts to engage in a largescale population resettlement of the indigenous Bedouin population there is waiting in the wings.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said repeatedly he is committed to the status quo at the site.

Gisha, an NGO advocating freedom of movement for Palestinians, said in a statement that while the Gaza furniture industry has “tremendous potential for growth”, Israel’s limitations on the import of wood beams larger than one centimeter in width stifles production.
