In a statement, the Palestinian foreign ministry
commended His Majesty’s stand against the ongoing “Israelization and
Judaization” of Jerusalem and escalating attacks against
Al-Aqsa Mosque, worshipers, and guards, including attempts to impose a temporal and spatial
division of the Al-Aqsa complex.
The Palestinian government and people highly
recognize the political and diplomatic moves, led by His Majesty King Abdullah,
to lay bare the Israeli aggression against Al-Aqsa Mosque, including
incursions, repression, and attacks on worshipers, guards and the elderly, the
statement said.
It highlighted the King’s warning of the
consequences of emptying the mosque of worshipers to carry out provocative
incursions and of the dangerous repercussions of these actions on the conflict
and the entire region, as Israel tries to turn the political nature of the
conflict to a religious war.
The Palestinian ministry noted the series of
contacts His Majesty, the custodian of the
Jerusalem holy sites, made with
officials in the region and the world as well as the UN to galvanize world
action to pressure the occupying power to cease the attacks.
