Sky News in Arabic Accuses Jewish "Settlers" of "Storming the al-Aqsa Mosque"
(UK Media Watch-CAMERA) Adam Levick - Sky News Arabia has repeatedly leveled erroneous allegations against Jewish visitors when reporting on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem - Judaism's holiest site. All Jewish visitors to the Temple Mount are blanketly referred to as "settlers," and are accused of "storming," "infiltrating" and "violating" the al-Aqsa Mosque, attributing to Jewish visitors aggressive and violent behavior without any evidence. However, Jews (and all non-Muslims) are forbidden from entering the mosque, and all the visits to the areas outside the mosque are peaceful. Here are English translations of the Arabic headlines accompanying some of the articles: "Biggest infiltration to Al-Aqsa mosque in 50 years," Aug. 1, 2017; "Hundreds of settlers storm Al-Aqsa plaza," May 23, 2018; "Under heavy guard: hundreds of settlers storm Al-Aqsa," July 22, 2018.
