Off Topic: Abbas In Panic Over Temple Mount Passivity
Abbas In Panic Over Temple Mount Passivity, The Jewish Press, Shalom Bear, June 4, 2014 updated June 5th
Apparently this lack of Arab rage has terribly scared and unsettled Abbas, so on Wednesday he called on Muslims around the world to protect the Al Aqsa Mosque. I’m not holding my breath.
Jews on the Temple Mount
Palestinian Unity Government (PUG) president Mahmoud Abbas is apparently in a panic over the Temple Mount.
On Tuesday, for the first time ever, Israeli police closed the Temple Mount to Muslim visitors, to block the expected Hamas-funded riots and violence against Jewish visitors.
Despite all the dire warnings and threats, the Muslims took the closure quite passively, and they didn’t riot, throw rocks, get violent, or even launch missiles at Israel. It seems that a little Jewish self-respect can go a long way.

Friday, June 6, is what the Arabs call Naqsa Day, or in everyday language, the anniversary of the 6 Day War, when Jerusalem was liberated from the Jordanians. Abbas may be hoping for more than the usual Friday violence.
The mosque is currently located on the Jewish People’s holiest site, the Temple Mount.

“Apparently this lack of Arab rage has terribly scared and unsettled Abbas, so on Wednesday he called on Muslims around the world to protect the Al Aqsa Mosque. I’m not holding my breath.”
Apparently, when a man (Muslim or otherwise) has the opportunity to earn a living, raise a family, and pursue happiness freely and securely, then and only then, will you have failed confrontations such as this. Sadly, the formula in countries unlike Israel, Jordan, and others is to deny their young men of that which we take for granted making them angry and prone to provocation. Ever wonder why so many have so much time to hit the streets? They should be gainfully employed, educated, and raising a loving family. Of course, the radicals in charge will not allow all this bliss. It might disrupt their cause.
Of course, that’s just my opinion. I could be entirely wrong.
