One of the leaders exhorted the youthful participants in the program to consider themselves the "generation will be the generation of victory, the generation that defends the place".
So far, an estimated 6,000 Israeli children from 33 towns in Israel have taken part in the program, which includes a tour of the Temple Mount. Children are also given pamphlets with stories about the site.
If you are Jewish, don't feel embarassed. The youngsters involved are all...Muslim.
Here's the full story:
Thousands of Israeli Arab youth are being taught to defend Muslim dominance on the Temple Mount, under programs sponsored by the Islamic Movement, the Israel-based branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. “This generation will be the generation of victory, the generation that defends the place from which the prophet Mohammed ascended to heaven,” according to Dr. Hikmat Namna of the Organization to Develop Al-Aksa, which has played a part in the educational program.
An estimated 6,000 Israeli Muslim children from 33 Arab towns in Israel have taken part in the program, which includes a tour of the Temple Mount. Children are also given pamphlets with stories about Mohammed and the Al-Aksa mosque. The northern branch of the Islamic Movement is lead by Sheikh Raed Salah, a Hamas supporter and open enemy of Israel who was recently jailed in Britain for violating a travel ban. Salah has previously stated that Jerusalem and the Temple Mount are exclusively Muslim, and has led attempts to boost the Muslim presence in the area.
The Al-Aksa Organization has released incitement regarding the Temple Mount as well, including accusations of Israeli attempts to damage the Al Aksa mosque and defile the area.
Do you feel better that they kids are Muslim rather than Jewish Yeshiva students?
