Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas claimed in a recent newspaper interview that Israel is engaged in an “evil and dangerous plot to destroy” the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem and replace it with a Jewish temple.
The accusation perpetuates a long held Arab myth that Israel is quietly “scheming” to destroy Muslim holy sites, according to Palestinian Media Watch (PMW), the Israeli organization that first recorded and translated Abbas’ remarks.
“All these [Israeli] actions indicate an evil and dangerous plot to destroy Al-Aqsa [Mosque] and build the alleged Temple,” Abbas told the Saudi ArabianAl-Watan newspaper on June 3. “Unfortunately, these dangers, which are clear for everyone to see, have yet to receive proper Arab, Islamic and international responses.”
“Abbas’ reference to the ‘alleged Temple’ is part of the language the PA routinely uses to deny Israel’s history in Jerusalem,” PMW said in a statement.
Abbas claimed in the interview that the plot stretches even to Jewish American groups.
“Jewish organizations are making frantic efforts, both visible and hidden, to complete the Judaizing of the Al-Aqsa [Mosque] and to take control of it, especially following the recurring invasions of Al-Aqsa and the attacks on worshipers,” PMW quoted him as saying. “What affect do you think this has [both] on the Palestinian level and on the regional level? And do you think that the Arab and Islamic responses are at the adequate level?”
