PA Campaigns Against Jews at Temple Mount
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - The Palestinian Authority is stepping up its condemnation of visits by Jews to the Temple Mount - Judaism's holiest site. The visits are described by the PA-controlled media as attempts by "hordes of settlers and Jewish extremists to storm and desecrate the Aksa Mosque." The PA campaign against Jewish visitors has triggered several violent protests over the past few months. The PA is probably trying to divert attention from its controversial decision to resume peace talks with Israel.
