This reveals the excessive amount of Judaization inside the holy city. Reporter, Male #2 Scenes like this one are now familiar and ever-present in the courtyards of the al-Aqsa Mosque. It does not move the consciousness of the international community, or the Arab consciousness that is preoccupied by its internal worries. The scene in the surroundings of Jerusalem is now very distorted. Extremist groups violate all sanctuaries, and call for dividing al-Aqsa Mosque, the first Qibla, forecasting a demonstration of thousands in the next few days. Guest, Male #3 (Omar al-Ghul, Adviser to the Palestinian Prime Minister) The excavation under the mosque is part of several steps that were followed and implemented by extremist Zionist settler organizations, and Benjamin Netanuyahu's government and the governments that preceded it. Reporter, Male #2 On the other hand, the ground under al-Aqsa is in a race against time, as the excavations are continuing in search of a temple that does not exist except in the minds of extremist groups. What these pictures reveal is the scale of these excavations that were described as the largest in 150 years. Here, a city underground is shown being excavated by Jewish extremist groups that purposely distort historic facts by linking the site to Jewish history that has no trace on our land. Guest, Male #4 (Hanna Issa, Secretary-General of the Islamic-Christian Committee) There are excavations that are happening now from the Damascus Gate to al-Buraq wall, and the purpose is to steal the ruins and stones from these areas and to plant them in distant areas for the Jews to claim as part of their heritage. Israel also wants to prove to the world that these ruins date back to the era of King David, and not to the Arab-Islamic era. Reporter, Male #2 In light of the internal concerns of Arab capitals, Jewish groups are openly talking about a historic chance to fulfill their ominous dream of establishing the so-called temple on the rubble of the al-Aqsa Mosque. http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-091812?start=1237 <p>Bahrainis rally in solidarity with political prisoners sentenced to death, seven dead in PKK ambush of Turkish military convoy, female suicide bomber kills 12 in Kabul over anti-Islam film, and more.</p> Tue, 18 Sep 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-091812 United States, Anti-Americanism, Islam, Palestinians, UN General Assembly, Syrian Civil War, Syria, Israel, Human rights in Bahrain, Bingöl Presenter, Male #1 In the framework of Judaizing the holy city, the occupation's forces intensified their oppressive measures against Jerusalemites in the town of Silwan, south of the holy al-Aqsa Mosque. It issued evacuation orders to a number of homeowners in preparation for demolition, in addition to confiscating the lands of al-Rahma Cemetery, southeast of the al-Aqsa Mosque. Reporter, Male #2 The town of Silwan, which borders the southern wall of the holy al-Aqsa, is one of the militant fronts in the occupied city. In their preparations to demolish the whole mosque, the occupation's authorities seek to obtain the town, because of its important geographic location adjacent to the holy mosque. Guest, Male #3 (Ibrahim Awadallah, Assistant Undersecretary for the Palestinian Dar al-Ifta) The neighborhoods of al-Bustan and al-Silwan are very close to or adjacent to al-Aqsa Mosque. It's quite normal for them to be targeted. They are targeted by legal and judicial means, either by seizure of the land, or through claims of purchase, and so on. Anyway, these neighborhoods are being targeted. Reporter, Male #2 The occupation's excavations reached all along the southern wall, the Umayyad palaces, and the Arab and Islamic ruins, in its attempt to eradicate them. The town of Silwan was also targeted, in the form of orders issued to citizens to evacuate their homes, and in hints that dozens of homes would be demolished under the pretext of a lack of permits. Guest, Male #3 Al-Aqsa Mosque is in imminent danger, and it seems that the plots are no longer being hidden. Many of them are being announced. Some extremist forces are publicly targeting the existence of al-Aqsa Mosque. And sadly, they're sponsored by the Israeli government. Reporter, Male #2 With that, Tel Aviv's government is intensifying all of its Judaization projects, by supervising and inexhaustibly endorsing settlement communities who are actively working inside of occupied Jerusalem. Reporter, Male #2 From west to east, the city is being subjected to plots of seizure and displacement, and the stricken Silwan neighborhood is nothing but a blatant Arab and Palestinian example of what occupied Jerusalem and its holy mosque are being subjected to. Ali Dar Ali, Palestine TV, northern occupied Jerusalem. http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-091312?start=731 Hundreds of family members of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons protested on the 19th anniversary of the Oslo Accords, BBC Arabic reports. They say the accords made Palestinians recognize Israel without receiving recognition in return. Thu, 13 Sep 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-091312 United States, Israel, Iran, 2012 US diplomatic missions attacks, Nuclear program of Iran, Islam, Tehran, International Atomic Energy Agency, Bahrain, Palestinians Presenter, Male #1 Hundreds of family members of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons protested on the 19th anniversary of the Oslo Accords signed by the Palestinian Authority and Israel. The protestors are demanding the immediate release of veteran prisoners who were supposed to be released in accordance with the agreement. The families expressed their solidarity with the prisoners on strike inside Israeli prisons. This comes at a time when protests have escalated against Salam Fayyad's government due to the current economic crisis. Reporter, Female #2 The messages of condemnation on the Palestinian streets increased on the 19th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Principles, or the Oslo Accords. Reporter, Female #2 These messages were capped off with a new escalation by the so-called Prisoners' Movement on this occasion. They announced a strike to draw attention to the case of the veteran Palestinian prisoners inside Israeli jails. Reporter, Female #2 Of those 111 prisoners, some have spent more than 20 years in prison, and none of them have been released up until now. Reporter, Female #2 Israel was supposed to release the veteran prisoners in accordance with the Oslo agreement, within a specific scheduled time, something that has not been fulfilled after nearly 20 years. Their case remains marginalized, and their suffering continues, as the Israeli side rejects any real mutual agreement that could release them. Guest, Male #2 (Helmi al-Araj, General Director of the Center for the Defense of Liberties) This is the 19th anniversary of the signing of the fateful Oslo Accords, which placed a political, economic, and social burden on our people, and kept our prisoners behind bars. Guest, Male #2 This accord placed our people in an open-air prison, and kept the prisoners in the dungeons of Israeli jails. And now our people and prisoners are paying the price by sacrificing their freedom, lives, and blood. And up until now, the occupation and the international community continue to hold us to these agreements. Guest, Male #2 It is time to rebel against these agreements, and for our people to embrace freedom and independence by continuing to struggle, and by not groveling in front of the international community, which is biased towards the occupation's government. Reporter, Female #1 The Palestinian street erupted into anger in the wake of the worsening recent economic situation, and demanded the removal of Prime Minister Salam Fayyad in what appears to be a rejection of the Palestinian Authority, which came to power as a result of the Oslo Accords. Reporter, Female #1 The Palestinian leadership finds itself standing between a rock and a hard place, as it continues to deal with the furious street and their legitimate right to have an administration to run their affairs, while dealing with the new reality imposed by Israel. This led to the entrenchment of settlements and the Judaization of the city of Jerusalem, according to Palestinians who responded to this pressure by going to the United Nations to confirm the failure of a political solution with Israel, and by attempting to seek recognition of Palestine as a country under occupation. Guest, Male #3 (Issa Qaraqe, Palestinian Minister for Prisoners' Affairs) The peace accord was supposed to offer peace and an independent state, and to liberate Palestine from the occupation. But the occupation did not commit to the stages of the agreement, or to giving the Palestinian people a Palestinian state after the transitional phase in 1999. Therefore, the suffering continues, and the Palestinian people are still struggling for their legal, political, and legitimate rights. Reporter, Female #1 The latest developments witnessed by the Palestinian street warn of what seems to be the death certificate of the peace process between the Palestinian and Israeli sides. If this matter is not resolved, it will end the Oslo Accords, which its opponents view as having caused the Palestinian side to recognize Israel as a country, while never giving the Palestinians their country in return. Samah Hamdan, BBC. http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-082212?start=739 Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has sent a letter to his counterparts at the Mideast Quartet, urging them to remove Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, whom he described as an obstacle to the peace process, reports Dubai TV. Wed, 22 Aug 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-082212 Syrian Civil War, Syria, Journalist, Egypt, Refugees of the Syrian civil war, Avigdor Lieberman, Bab al-Tabbaneh–Jabal Mohsen clashes, Economy of Egypt, Egypt–Israel relations, Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center Presenter, Male #1 Today, the Rafah border crossing was partially reopened following several days of closure in observance of the Eid al-Fitr holiday. The Rafah crossing usually witnesses a high turnout of Palestinian travelers due to the frequent closures. The crossing was also closed early in the month following the recent attack on an Egyptian military post in Sinai. Presenter, Male #1 In a related development, Palestinian official Raed Fattouh, who coordinates the flow of goods into Gaza, said the Kerem Abu Salem commercial crossing was also partially reopened today to allow the entry of aid, cooking gas, and other goods used in the agriculture, trade, and transportation sectors. Presenter, Male #1 Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has escalated his war of words against Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. Lieberman sent a letter to his counterparts at the Mideast Quartet, urging them to remove Abbas, whom he described as an obstacle to the peace process. The letter, which was released by the Israeli Haaretz newspaper, is part of a relentless campaign launched last year by Lieberman against Abbas in a bid to delegitimize him. For its part, the Palestinian Authority downplayed the significance of this latest extremist Israeli position. Our correspondent Mohammed al-Sayyed reports from Ramallah. Reporter, Male #2 It's a new escalation in the Israeli war of incitement against Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman called on the Quartet to topple Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas through new elections in the Palestinian Authority. Guest, Male #3 (Hani al-Masri, Writer and Political Analyst) If the president doesn't respond, Israel is seriously considering his removal by replacing him with a loyal Palestinian leadership that's willing to meet Israeli demands and orders. However, this will be nearly impossible to achieve. Reporter, Male #2 Lieberman's call, which reminds us of a similar position taken by former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon against the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, comes under the context of mounting Israeli pressures on the Palestinians in an attempt to sway them from heading to the UN to seek recognition of their state, especially since the policy adopted by Abbas has embarrassed Israel before the international community. Guest, Male #4 (Dr. Wasel Abu Yousef, PLO Executive Committee Member) They are trying to prevent the Palestinian leadership from heading to the UN, but they know that the Palestinian leadership has already made its decision to seek UN recognition of the State of Palestine. The PA wants to resume its efforts with the international community while holding this right-wing extremist government responsible for any political stalemate. Reporter, Male #2 The unequivocal Palestinian position on the construction of settlements and the Judaization of Jerusalem has prompted the Israeli side to explore ways to get rid of President Abu Mazen. Israel has relentlessly sought to eliminate Palestinian leaderships through various means, and that includes the last move by Sharon to oust Yasser Arafat. And today, in an innovative way, Abu Mazen's turn has come, and is an attempt to drag the Palestinians into a new Israeli-engineered battle, which may further fuel their division. http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-071212?start=1139 <p>Mali's Tuaregs driven out of last stronghold as military intervention looms, thousands of Saudi protesters demand release of prominent cleric al-Nimr, Kuwaiti women score victory with swimmer's participation in Olympic Games, and more.</p> Thu, 12 Jul 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-071212 Iron Dome, Eilat, Israeli–Palestinian conflict, Palestinians, Israel, Israel Defense Forces, 2012 insurgency in the Azawad, 2011-2012 Saudi Arabia protests, Rivers State, Ehud Olmert Presenter, Male #1 In Hebron, the ancient Khirbet Beit Mirsim is being marginalized as the occupation seeks to displace its residents. Reporter, Male #2 Since 1967, Hajj Waleed Amr from Khirbet Beit Mirsim, part of the city of Dura in southern Hebron, has been feeling wrenching pain every day he walks near the rubble of his ancestral home that was destroyed by the occupation that is still preventing the reconstruction of the house. Guest Male #3 The Israelis demolished 76 homes, and they only allowed us to build 72 rooms, not homes. So some buildings only have three or four rooms. We have 11 rooms; they only built this house after 1967. Reporter, Male #2 Amr is one of the 35 families whose homes were demolished by the occupation with the aim of expelling them and seizing their historical and archaeological land. Some were forced to leave, and others insisted staying on the land of their fathers and grandfathers, risking the fate of their families for the sake of their land. Guest, Female #1 We were forced out of our homes. The Israelis made us leave. The Israelis forced us to leave. I will not forget our home, or our water wells. Reporter, Male #1 Part of the apartheid wall was erected on the land of Khirbet Beit Mirsim, engulfing large areas of the village, with disregard to the forgotten ruins full of Arab monuments and history. In addition, the occupation continues to attempt to erase the history of the ruins, and force the citizens to leave. Guest, Male #3 The village of Beit Mirsim is a Palestinian, Arab, Canaanite village that was destroyed, and its residents displaced. It holds many Palestinian monuments, but sadly a lot of our children don't know about this village, and not even the Ministry of Antiquities is expressing any interest in the village. Reporter, Male #2 This scene confirms the historical narrative that recounts that Khirbet Beit Mirsim is an archeological site with dilapidated walls and ground cavern foundations paved with mosaics, the remains of a church that was turned into the site of prophet Handal, and remnants from the Byzantine era, which were initially built by the Canaanite Arabs, naming the village Dubair, meaning holy. Reporter, Male #2 Khirbet, or ruins, of Beit Mirsim is full of monuments, but is forgotten by Palestinian citizens, as the occupation seeks to Judiaze and steal the village, erasing its Arab and historical features. Sari el-Lawut, Palestine TV, Beit Mirsim, south Hebron. ** Contact Mosaic News: mosaicnews{at}linktv{dot}org http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-070612?start=977 Palestine TV reports that the IDF's construction of the West Bank separation wall will be resumed in Jerusalem and the Gush Etzion settlement after a five-year hiatus. In addition, Israeli settlers seized land in the town of al-Khader in southern Bethlehem. Fri, 06 Jul 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://news.linktv.org/videos/mosaic-news-070612 Libyan Public National Conference election, 2012, Knesset, Libya, Jerusalem, Elections in Libya, Israel, 2011 Libyan Uprising, 2011-2012 Sudanese protests, 2011-2012 Jordanian Protests, 2011 NATO attack in Pakistan Presenter, Male #1 During a hearing at the occupation's Supreme Court, an officer in the occupation army revealed the constructing of the annexation and apartheid wall will be resumed in the area of Jerusalem and the Gush Etzion settlement. In addition, settlers seized agricultural land in the town of al-Khader in southern Bethlehem. Reporter, Male #2 In a plot to Judaize occupied Jerusalem and isolate it from its surroundings, the Israeli occupation will resume, in the coming weeks, the construction of the apartheid wall around the Gush Etzion settlement, in the southwestern part of Bethlehem, after work was halted over the past five years. Guest, Male #3 The settlement campaign is intensifying on the land of the town of Khader, and especially in the areas bordering the settlements. Recently, the Israeli Knesset issued a decision allowing this Palestinian land to be seized by the settlers. The so-called Israeli education minister also came out with a project to construct biblical gardens and schools in the areas of Khalt al-Fahim. Reporter, Male #2 The new Israeli endeavor seeks to occupy more than 20,000 donums of agricultural land, in addition to the thousands of donums on which settlements were built; all that land belongs to residents of the towns of al-Khader, Rfas, and Beit Jala. This is in addition to the provisions to Judaize Jerusalem, annex the settlement's land, and seize the Palestinians' right to their land. Guest, Male #4 (Ibrahim Moussa, Resident and Farmer) They are now on my land that they took, that was devoured by the wall; they took 8 donums from it. Right now, the wall is surrounding the city of al-Khader, and reduced it from 24,000 donums to 20,000 donums. The wall has prevented people from communicating with people in other villages and towns. And this also poses a problem for the farmers who cannot reach their land and crops. Reporter, Male #2 The targeting of Bethlehem is not limited to the occupation's procedures that are embodied in constructing the annexation wall, but citizens are also prevented from receiving building permits, while the occupation excels in sending demolition orders to the villages of the western countryside, and actually demolishing the homes of the residents. Guest, Male #5 (Taha Hamamra, Village Council Member) About a month ago, we were surprised by the Israeli occupation's decision to confiscate some land in the village. We feel that the confiscation of these donums, and although it is a small number of donums, is a way to seize a large amount of land. Reporter, Male #2 So the occupation's one-sided procedures undermine the two-state solution, and the occupation's government is even mapping a new geographical reality on the ground. It is an attempt to impose a political solution that places our people and their dream of freedom and independence in closed cantons, unable to survive. It is an occupation story, and its acts are revealed day-by-day. What the governorate of Bethlehem is being subjected to, from Judaization to settlement construction, are mere chapters of that story.

Reporter, Female #1 Implementing the Israeli government's decisions in cooperation with the occupation's municipality, the so-called Elad Settlement Organization, and the ministry of environmental protection, the occupation's bulldozers took initiative to plant thousands of fake tombs in Jabal al-Zaytoon, east of al-Aqsa Mosque. The tombs extend through Wadi Silwan in the south, and Wadi Rababa, west of the holy al-Aqsa Mosque. Guest, Male #2 (Mohammed al-Fattah, Eyewitness) Overnight, it became a Jewish cemetery. If someone was to see it today, they would think it was there for thousands of years. They came and dug holes in the ground. After that, they put steel blocks and covered them with concrete. Then, they put stones and marked them as if they were the headstones of these tombs. Guest, Male #3 (Mustafa Abu Zahrah, Official in the Cemetery Committee) This morning, concrete mixers and dumpers came and poured cement into these holes, and then they covered them up with stones, as you can see here. After that they covered the cement and stones with dirt, to give it an antique appearance. Overnight, this area became a fake, mythical Jewish cemetery. Reporter, Female #1 The settlements' methods of forgery vary, from claiming ownership of the Jerusalem houses to demolishing them under the pretext of lacking a permit, or seizing land owned by the Islamic Waqf, or Endowment Foundation, and digging and constructing tombs that contain nothing but cement and steel blocks. Guest, Female #2 (Hajja Ruwuqa al-Salaima) They brought steel and concrete blocks in order to turn this area into a Jewish cemetery. We live here right next to it. They want to close the roads on us. This is unacceptable. Guest, Male #4 We were born here. We were living here before 1967. They demolished my house and told me that this is Jewish cemetery land. All of these are lies aimed at distorting the history of this land. They want to turn this into Jewish land. They just want to take anyone's land. Those claiming to be environmentalists are the ones behind this. Reporter, Female #1 The Israeli occupation's municipality is still expanding its plan to Judaize the city and forge its reality. These tombs appear to be thousands of years old to the eye, but the truth is not so. They were built today and are free of history. The new Israeli approach to occupy the lands and houses of Jerusalemites, overturn the facts, and forge the history, is manifested in constructing these fake tombs on land owned by the Islamic Waqf Foundation.

The Prisoners' Society indicated in a statement it issued today that over 300 policemen and soldiers, heavily armed with weapons, including pistols, batons, and tear gas launchers, suddenly stormed the prison from the emergency exits, causing fear and chaos among the prisoners. They specifically targeted cells 18 and 19. The society said the search campaign started at five o'clock in the afternoon and lasted until five in the morning. A monthly report issued by the Wall and Settlements Information Center at the Palestinian Authority's Ministry of Wall and Settlements recorded 145 attacks by the Israeli occupation authorities and settlers during February. The attacks include demolitions, demolition orders, assaults on farmland, trees and citizens, in addition to Judaizing occupied Jerusalem. Reporter, Male #1 145 attacks were carried out by the occupation and its settlers in February. This was revealed in a monthly report by the Wall and Settlements Information Center at the Palestinian Authority's Ministry of Wall and Settlements. Guest, Male #2 (Mohamed Nazzal, Head of Wall and Settlement Information Center) The Israeli measures didn't spare anything; they targeted everything in the Palestinian territories. The schools, mosques, residential houses, the properties of the Palestinians, the land, trees, everything was attacked by the settlers. Especially since Israeli executive institutions are now able to act without waiting for the approval of legislative and judicial institutions. Reporter, Male #1 The report indicated the assaults included demolitions, demolition orders, aggression on farmland, trees, civilians and their properties, an ongoing Judaization campaign of Jerusalem, and an expansion of settlements, in addition to targeting citizens with live bullets. Citizen Tala'at Ramia was martyred and dozens were injured in al-Ram. Guest, Male #2 I believe we are waiting for a new wave of attacks. The evidence is that, for example in July, the Supreme Court of Israel and an official in charge of civic administration agreed to make a final decision in all demolition cases filed at the Supreme Court. We believe that in July we will witness a wave of demolitions. Reporter, Male #1 The occupation's violations even reached religious sites and media networks. In the latest such violation, TV stations al-Watan and al-Quds Educational TV were stormed, and their broadcast equipment confiscated. Days and months have passed, and nearly every day that goes by, a new chapter of Israeli aggression against our people is written. These assaults take place under the watch of the international community that rarely takes any action, other than the occasional condemnation.

They targeted the town of Khuza'a in Khan Younis with rockets, severely wounding two Palestinians. Two other Palestinians were also injured after settlers assaulted them while they were herding their sheep in the Michmash region in the West Bank. Occupation forces arrested two more Palestinians during a wide scale raid campaign in a number of cities and villages in the West Bank. To complete their Judaization operation, the occupation authorities approved a settlement plan to build 336 new settlement units in the West Bank. Palestinians strongly condemned the settlement plan, considering it another reason for appealing to the United Nations to recognize a Palestinian State.
