A new Israeli escalation step

In a new escalating step by the occupying power, it has limited the number of Christian brothers allowed to celebrate the Sabbath of Light in Jerusalem, which falls on Saturday, in a measure that, if anything, indicates Israel's defiance of all international laws and norms.


In addition to the fact that this step, procedure, or decision is a clear violation of the sanctity of religions and sanctities, it fuels escalation in Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank, especially since it coincides with the escalation carried out by the occupation forces in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, which led to the explosion of the situation through shelling and mutual shelling. Al-Aqsa was victorious by three fronts, which led to the decision of Netanyahu, the head of the occupation government, to prevent settlers' incursions into Al-Aqsa during the last ten days of Ramadan.


However, a step or decision to limit the number of Christian brothers allowed to participate in the Saturday celebrations added fuel to the fire, and the occupation state continued its incursions into Palestinian cities, towns, villages and camps in the West Bank, arrests, provocations and cold-blooded killings to fuel the situation again.


The occupying state, along with the countries supporting it, is responsible for this escalation, which threatens the consequences of matters, especially on Saturday, when the occupying state turned Jerusalem into a military barracks, which will lead to provocation of Jerusalemites, Muslims and Christians, and may lead to confrontations with the occupation forces.


What the occupying state is doing in Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank is collective punishment that contradicts international laws and norms. Indeed, international law and the Criminal Court punish it, but the colonial West prevents this and defends the occupying state and others with all aid, especially military ones, in order to continue its violations and even its crimes. right of our Palestinian people.


Likewise, the attempts of the occupying power, through its crimes and violations against Islamic and Christian sanctities, to impose its control over Jerusalem will not work, as Jerusalem has been Canaanite since ancient times, and the Palestinians are an extension of them. Today or tomorrow, Jewish as they claim and claim.


Which capital is this that they claim is their capital, and it is a military barracks, and this, if anything, indicates that the occupying state cannot annex Jerusalem and consider it its capital, but on the ground it is Arab-Palestinian-Islamic, and that the Christian and Islamic presence in Medina for centuries, and it is a city in which Christians and Muslims lived as brothers and they respected their festivals and sanctities and defended them. Israel is a country that lives on escalation, killing and terrorism, but that will not last long.
