Another Attack on Jewish Feminism

Islamic group condemns plan to expand Western Wall prayer site

An Islamic group on Tuesday condemned a long-time Israeli proposal to enlarge the section of the Western Wall allotted for women's prayer.

The criticism by the Al Aksa Foundation, which is affiliated with the Islamic Movement in Israel, was the latest flare-up over control of the Temple Mount...

"There is no such thing as innocent work so long as the Aksa mosque is under occupation," said Zahi Nujeidat, spokesman for the Islamic Movement in Israel.
