On Friday a conflict broke out on
the Temple Mount. Aljazeera’s
headline read, “Israeli forces storm Al-Aqsa Mosque with tear gas, stun
grenades.” The
Jerusalem Post read, “Dozens of Palestinians Riot at Temple Mount Following
Friday Prayers.” Apparently following prayers,
a group of individuals began throwing fireworks and stones at the Israeli
police, after which the individuals barricade themselves in the Al-Aqsa
Mosque. In
a rare move the police then enter the mosque and arrest some of the
individuals and attempt to clear the mount, which was shut down for a time and later reopened.
