Expulsion and arrest of Al-Aqsa guards .. Multiple political messages and implications

Targeting Al-Aqsa Mosque guards with expulsion from the mosque, arrests, and administrative rulings against them, carries multiple political messages and implications. These are not just messages of intimidation and fear, but also a message to Jordan, which is the custodian of Al-Aqsa Mosque and employs these guards. The Israeli message states that "we are the sovereign over Al-Aqsa, 'Temple Mount', and we decide on its matters. We decide who has the right to enter Al-Aqsa and who does not," within the framework of subjugating the Palestinian and Arab mind to Israeli decisions and procedures. This is not only through imposing new Judaization facts in Al-Aqsa, but also by paving the way for stripping the administrative authority over Al-Aqsa from the Islamic Endowments, and the arrest of the guards is a prelude to ending Jordanian custodianship over Al-Aqsa.There is another message to Jerusalemites and Arabs of the Palestinian interior - 48, that the era of removing electronic gates at Al-Aqsa gates in July 2017 has passed irrevocably, as work is underway to dismantle any large popular bloc capable of confronting any Judaization steps against Al-Aqsa. The ongoing expulsions and arrests against Jerusalemites and residents of the Palestinian interior - 48, fall within this framework and context.The occupation government, as part of its systematic Judaization policy towards Al-Aqsa Mosque, believes that this season must be the season of decisive sovereignty over Al-Aqsa, and to take it out of the purely Islamic era and cross it into the Jewish era. The Arab and Islamic situation is very favorable, as we are experiencing an unprecedented state of collapse, deterioration, helplessness, and cowardice, from taking any practical steps to confront the Israeli Judaization plans and projects in Al-Aqsa. The broken record in Arab and Islamic circles has become: we condemn, denounce, and demand the international community to bear its responsibilities and pressure Israel to stop its aggressions and impose new Judaization facts in Al-Aqsa that are not alarming to Israel and it pays no attention to them.Israel has always preceded the holy month with a wide incitement campaign, "demonizing" it, and describing it as a month of escalation and "terrorism" to justify its repressive, abusive, and humiliating measures and practices, by restricting freedom of movement and worship, preventing worshipers from reaching Al-Aqsa Mosque, and depriving them of performing their religious rituals, blatantly and shamelessly violating international law by preventing freedom of movement and worship. However, this season is different from all previous seasons, in terms of the Judaization attack we are witnessing on Al-Aqsa, an unprecedented campaign of expulsions against Palestinian citizens, religious and national leaders, male and female Murabitin, activists, and released prisoners.So far, more than 152 citizens have been expelled from Al-Aqsa, including a number of Al-Aqsa guards. The occupation did not stop at expelling Al-Aqsa guards, but also carried out administrative arrests against them, in a clear targeting of the Islamic Endowments Department and the Jordanian government, which is responsible for these guards, as it employs them and pays their salaries.It is expected that the number of those expelled from Al-Aqsa will reach hundreds by the holy month, and there will also be security and military restrictions, turning Jerusalem into a military barracks, restrictions on the numbers and ages of worshipers, especially since the numbers allowed to enter from the West Bank will be limited and will not exceed hundreds, as citizens coming to pray on Fridays are required to obtain special permits and magnetic cards, and their stay in Al-Aqsa is limited, while a large number of young people from Jerusalem and the Palestinian interior - 48 will be prevented from praying in Al-Aqsa under the pretexts of maintaining security.The Judaization steps for Al-Aqsa have gone beyond spatial and temporal division, and completed all Talmudic and Torah rituals to revive the spiritual Temple, where they practice epic prostration, with settlers prostrating on their faces, as the highest form of Talmudic and Torah rituals. They brought in black scrolls, prayer tools, and performed public and collective Talmudic and Torah prayers and rituals in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa, and entered in white priestly robes, wore tallit and tefillin, blew the shofar, and brought vegetarian Passover offerings to the courtyards of Al-Aqsa, palm fronds, willow leaves, and dried citrus fruits, and tried to bring animal Passover offerings to Al-Aqsa, and also danced and sang in Al-Aqsa and held weddings and adult baptisms.Now they are moving to a new stage, the stage of actually building the Temple, preceded by the construction of a Jewish synagogue in the eastern area of Al-Aqsa instead of the Bab Al-Rahma prayer hall, and then they will work to demolish the Dome of the Rock Mosque and build their alleged Third Temple in its place.The implementation of the Judaization plan and project against Al-Aqsa, similar to the seizure of the Ibrahimi Mosque, which has become almost completely under Israeli control through its Ministry of Religions and settlement associations, we see its actual steps on the ground. When many rabbis say to hasten the building of the Temple, without waiting for the purification from the impurity of the dead, and when the first reading in the Israeli Knesset approves lifting the sanctity of Al-Aqsa courtyards and converting them into municipal courtyards, within what they call "achieving Jewish identity in the public space," and "legalizing" that, this means that the Islamic Endowments Department and Al-Aqsa guards will be prohibited from preventing non-Muslims from practicing their Talmudic and Torah rituals and prayers in Al-Aqsa courtyards, and whoever objects will be subject to arrest, expulsion from Al-Aqsa, house arrest, and other penalties, because they are public courtyards.So, the plan is to confine Al-Aqsa Mosque, defined by its courtyards, platforms, domes, above and below ground, to 144 dunams, only what is roofed of Al-Aqsa.In another striking development, incursions into Al-Aqsa are no longer carried out through a single path, entering through the Mughrabi Gate and exiting through the Chain Gate, but have become under the protection of the occupation army and police, using more than one path, by allowing settlement groups, especially military training groups, to reach the Dome Mosque from the northern and western sides, knowing that their Torah texts prohibit them from reaching the Dome of the "Holy of Holies."The minister known as the Minister of Jewish Heritage, Amichai Eliyahu, was present with his daughter at the Red Heifer farm near Beit She'an, where he addressed her saying, "We will work to build our Temple." Those cows were genetically bred and brought from the state of Texas, USA, and placed in a special farm, to reach the legal age of two years, and then one of them will be slaughtered in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa, to bypass the decision of the Chief Rabbinate not to ascend to "Temple Mount," Al-Aqsa, without fulfilling the condition of purification from the impurity of the dead, as after slaughtering that cow, its ashes will be scattered after burning it with olive wood, on the largest number of rabbis, and thus we will be facing a "flood" of extremists storming Al-Aqsa, to become partners in the place, in preparation for controlling it.The ongoing expulsions and arrests against Palestinian citizens, and against the guards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, fall within the framework of a gradual emptying of Al-Aqsa of worshipers, and limiting the numbers allowed to pray, on the path to complete Judaization through accelerated Judaization steps.
