Violent clashes in West Bank as Palestinians protest over Israeli air strikes in Gaza – BBC News

Published

on



The deadly conflict between Israeli forces and Palestinian militants led by Hamas has entered its second week, with little sign of a political breakthrough.

The US President Joe Biden has for the first time expressed support for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, although he did not call for an immediate halt to Israeli airstrikes and Palestinian rocket attacks.

There have been serious clashes between Palestinian protesters and Israeli security forces in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and in Jerusalem.

Huw Edwards presents BBC News at Ten reporting from Jerusalem by middle east editor Jeremy Bowen.

    "Палец סטין"…
    1. האצבע הגדולה שלי ברגל ימין עם הציפורן התלושה וחתיכת הציפורן לידה שהושתלה לעומק (ישוע והכיסוי בד שעליו) היא палец סטין – палец סדין (המשופשף ושקוף למחצה בגלל השיפשופים הרבים עליו… אפרופו המצעים של "כוח שושנה" שהעבירה לדודסון) – палец זד יהיה – אצבע תהיה תחת (של אלונה אחרי ההשחטה של דודסון) – פלסטין תהיה תחת של אלונה…
    2. בנוסף שתי האצבעות הנוספות ברגל (האצבע הקטנה – הקמיצה, והאצבע הנוספת לידה) זה палец שטיין – אצבע אבן – אצבע מאובנת – פלסטין מאובנת… וזה אחרי לקיחת הביופסיה באזור הסמוך שגרמה לתחושת נימול בשתי האצבעות…

    This is genocide. No one says anything when the Israeli murderers slaughter the Palestinian people, yet when the Palestinians try to defend what little land they have left, it suddenly makes the news. How can the world be so blind. You are witnessing blatant propaganda.

    How can we explain that before the Six Day War in 1967 there was no serious movement to demand Palestinian independence?

    “Before 1967? You will say to me, "the Israelis did not occupy the West Bank and the old city of Jerusalem" It is true. But during the Six-Day War, it was not from the hands of the Palestinians, or Yasser Arafat, that Israel conquered Judea, Samaria and East Jerusalem.

    These territories were in fact occupied by King Hussein of Jordan since 1948. Was the Hashemite ruler ever asked to return these territories to the Palestinians? Has a single UN resolution emerged on this issue? No and no.

    Don't you ask yourself then why all these Palestinians suddenly discovered their national identity after Israel won this war?

    The truth is, Palestine is a Myth!

    The name Palestine is first used in AD 135 by Emperor Roman Hadrian, who not content with eradicating the Jewish presence in Judea (a presence that had lasted for over 1000 years! ), not content with having destroyed their Temple in Jerusalem, not content with having forbidden access to the country to the last Jews, persuaded himself that it was necessary to annihilate all traces of Jewish civilization in the country by renaming it for the benefit of a name derived from the Philistines.

    The Philistines being that people to which Goliath belonged and whom the Hebrews had succeeded in conquering centuries earlier. This baptism was for the Romans a way of adding insult to injury. They also tried to change the name of Jerusalem to "Alea Capitolina", but this did not meet with the same success. Palestine as an autonomous entity has never existed in history. Never !

    The country was dominated successively by the Romans, by the Christian crusaders, by the Muslims (who by the way never made Jerusalem a capital while they occupied the country), by the Ottomans and, briefly, by the British in the aftermath of the First World War. As early as 1917, with the Balfour Declaration, the British were in favor of ceding at least part of the territory to the Jewish people in order to establish a sovereign state there.

    There is no such thing as a proper Palestinian language. Not even a specifically Palestinian culture. There has never been a Palestinian ruled by Palestinians. The latter are Arabs, and are inseparable from the Jordanians (Jordan is also a recent invention, created from scratch in 1922 by the British).

    Realize that the Arab world controls 99.9% of the land in the Middle East. Israel represents only 0.1% of the regional surface! But this is still too much for the Arabs. They want EVERYTHING. And that is precisely where the crux of the conflict between them and Israel lies.

    Greed. Pride. Jealousy. Lust. All the concessions Israel might make will not be enough.

    What about the holy places of Islam? There are simply none in Jerusalem. Does that shock you? You can be. I am sure you will never hear this brutal truth from any international media. This is politically incorrect. I know you will tell me: Al Aqsa Mosque and Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem represent the third holiest site in Islam "after Mecca and Medina.

    Well, know that is wrong! In fact, the Qur'an makes no mention of Jerusalem. Mecca is cited hundreds of times. Medina is mentioned countless times. But Jerusalem never (conversely, Jerusalem is cited 669 times in the Torah!). There is no historical evidence that the Prophet Mohammad visited Jerusalem.

    So how did Jerusalem become the third holiest site in Islam? Muslims today refer to a vague passage from the Qur'an, the 17th Sura, entitled "The Night Journey" (1). It describes a dream of Muhammad who was transported at night "from the sacred temple to the most distant temple whose precincts we have blessed."

    In the seventh century, Muslims identified the two temples mentioned in this verse as Mecca and Jerusalem. This is the reason for the close connection between Islam and Jerusalem – a connection made up of dreams, imagination, interpretations and myth. At the same time, the Jewish people see their roots in Jerusalem going back to the time of Patriarch Abraham.

    The latest wave of violence in Israel was said to have originated with the visit of Likud Party leader Ariel Sharon to the Temple Mount, where the foundations of the Temple built by Solomon are located. It is the holiest site in Judaism. Sharon and his entourage were greeted there with throwing stones and insults. I know what it looks like. I was there. Can you imagine how the Jews feel when they are threatened, stoned and kept away from the holiest place in Judaism?

    So, you will say to me, what is the solution to bring peace in this Middle East? Frankly, I don't think any man today can claim to have a lasting solution. But if there is, it must begin by restoring the Truth. The pursuit of lies will only bring more chaos. Continuing to disregard a 5,000-year-old legitimate right to Jews, further reinforced by glaring historical and archaeological evidence, confronting them with bogus claims, can only give this lying diplomacy a bad reputation.

    Note
    (1) Muslims rely on the Quran to claim Jerusalem, yet Jerusalem is not mentioned there once. The 17th Sura contains a fuzzy allusion to a "furthest Mosque". "Praised be he who led his servant from the inviolable mosque to the furthest mosque during the night." But is there a solid basis that would prove that the al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem is mentioned here? The answer is no !.
    During the time of Muhammad, who died in 632 AD, Jerusalem was a Christian city in the Byzantine kingdom. It was not conquered until six years later by Caliph Omar. During this period there were only churches in the city and on the Temple Mount was the Byzantine Church of St. Mary. Around the year 711, or 80 years after Muhammad's death, the church was transformed into a mosque and called al-Aqsa in order to give substance to the incomprehensible Sura 17 of the Koran. Muhammad could not therefore think of this mosque when he wrote the Quran, since it only existed three generations after his death. Besides, Muhammad had no particular sympathy for Jerusalem. He allowed these devotees to pray facing Jerusalem for a few months, hoping to convince the Jews to turn to Islam. The attempt having failed, he pronounced on February 12, 624, the prohibition to pray towards Jerusalem.
    This city was never a holy place for Muslims.

    The Dutch the ruled Indonesia for 300years does that mean they claim Indonesia? The Portuguese can they come back to Mozambique saying their forefathers ruled for 500 years? Nonsense !!
    The Jews by force of arms they took poor Arabs property and say they r entitled to it. If by force of arm it justifies you taking Palestinian land, then Palestinian have the right to reclaim their property back by force that belongs to Palestinians .Why the Israelis complaining about ?

    The story of bbc sounds reasonable .. it seems to go fast, like a Jew and Palais style. It is a stone .. Only during the Egyptians and Moses were gone, and their descendants are called Who? .. But the Egyptians go through a thousand years .. Greece has passed, a thousand years, Roman has passed, a thousand years .. What you really see is that the lands were there. But people change many generations .. What is seen all over the world is that the majority of Caucasian and Semitic people. Lived in that area..and the fact that the 20th century people must understand that the Mongols had succeeded in ruling the Caucasian, but the Caucasians swallowed They disappear .. 👉 Why did Thailand not hire European, US, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean people to dig a pipe in Thailand .. The answer is 5 thousand years in the Caucasian and Semitic Al-the veil was around in that area. So it's not Palestinian Jews, but normal. Like the middle ages Of Jews, Christians, Muslims .. the only obvious answer is that they fight each other and don't make a living.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
