Israel seeks to turn the conflict into a religious war
The almost daily Israeli violations against Islamic and Christian sanctities in Jerusalem and the rest of the occupied Palestinian territories, especially in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Ibrahimi Mosque, clearly indicate that the goals of the Netanyahu government are to transform the conflict into a religious one instead of the national one that the Palestinians demand to achieve their goals in the end of the occupation and the establishment of a Palestinian state The independent city with its capital, Al-Quds Al-Sharif, on the borders of June 4, 1967. Otherwise, what is the meaning of the daily incursions by settlers into Al-Aqsa Mosque, their performance of Talmudic prayers inside it, and the preparations by organizations of the so-called Temple Mount to establish their alleged temple in place of the Dome of the Rock?
What is the meaning of their storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque yesterday and raising the Israeli flags in its courtyards, in a clear challenge to all Muslims in the world, and not only to our Palestinian people and our Arab nation? Raising the flags of the occupation in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa means that sovereignty over it rests with the occupying side, and that this is a prelude to the establishment of the alleged temple in its place, at the moment they see fit to implement that.
Also, raising the flags of the occupation means not only harming the sanctity of Al-Aqsa, which is the first of the two qiblahs, the second of the two mosques, the third of the Two Holy Mosques, and the place of resting place for the Messenger Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, but rather a renunciation of the agreement with brotherly Jordan regarding the Hashemite guardianship of the holy places in Jerusalem, which was mentioned in the peace agreement between The occupying power and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
What also means the storming of the Ibrahimi Mosque by a group of settlers headed by the so-called Israeli National Security Minister Ben Gvir, and his performance of Talmudic dances in clear defiance not only of the people of the city of Hebron, but of all Arabs and Muslims, and this, if it indicates anything, indicates that the authorities The occupation, represented by Netanyahu's extremist government, is preparing for a religious war that may not remain or be left behind, especially since Arabs and Muslims will not remain silent in the face of these violations that have prolonged and prolonged. As well as deporting many of them and preventing them from entering the Old City of Jerusalem.
And if we take into account the continuation of settlement expansion, the confiscation of more lands, the Judaization and annexation processes, and the consideration of the occupation government and leaders that the West Bank is an occupied Jewish land, according to their claim, and their rejection of peace and the annihilation of the two-state solution according to the international vision, then everyone - that is, Arabs and Muslims - must prepare for a confrontation This war, which the occupying state seeks to turn into a religious war, in an attempt to end the Arab-Palestinian-Jewish conflict in its favour.
This is what many of Netanyahu's extremist government ministers declared, that what we are doing is resolving the conflict in favor of the occupying state, and that there is no place for the Palestinians in this land and country.
Will the international community remain silent about this, or will the national, religious and national duty call on Arabs and Muslims to take action to prevent this, because the consequences of this will be dire if action is not taken now and urgently?
