(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Sheikh Salah said that the occupation's aims behind this escalation is to achieve an initial goal represented in intensifying the incursions in Al-Aqsa Mosque and performing Talmudic rituals inside it, in order to pave the way for its future calls to divide al-Aqsa Mosque, as it had imposed such a division on the Ibrahimi Mosque in al-Khalil.
He added in an interview with the Al-Aqsa Foundation for Waqf and heritage that the occupation statements and practices confirm that it aims to build the alleged temple at the expense of Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The head of the Islamic movement stated that "according to my studies on the occupation's attacks on Al-Aqsa Mosque since 1967, I stress that those who have been calling, since that year, for the division of al-Aqsa and the construction of the alleged temple at the expense of al-Aqsa Mosque, were political military leaders and religious figures in the Zionist community, and here they are renewing their calls."
Sheikh Raed Salah also pointed that Israel has started accelerating its plans to Judaize Jerusalem and build the Alleged Temple, especially in light of the Arab Spring that has made a radical change in the Arab and Islamic worlds.
