AMMAN — Israeli settlers have begun to blow trumpets (Shofar) when storming Masjid Al-Aqsa.
Raze Obeidat, a Jerusalemite writer and political analyst, said to Palm Strategic Initiatives Center that these trumpets have a symbolic Talmudic and biblical origin and are meant to commemorate a change of the times. The trumpets are also symbolic of the founding of a new temple.
Other settlers also performed dances and Talmudic rituals.

Disregard for holy sites
There have also been previous attacks on other holy sites, including Christian ones, prompting His Majesty King Abdullah II to state “Christianity in the Old City is under fire,” and Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem Pierbattista Pizzaballa said that the far-right Israeli occupation government headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “has made life worse for Christians” in the birthplace of Christianity, the city of Jerusalem.
Many Muslims and Christians saw these acts as a complete disregard for their holy sites, and their presence and supposed coexistence in Jerusalem. This most recent proclamation seems to be a declaration of intent by the settlers.
