In defense of the Aqsa mosque

Earlier, on 17 September, settlers stormed the compound in celebration of the Jewish New Year, known as Rosh Hashanah.

This latest incursion into the holy site coincides with a significant uptick in settler violence against Palestinians across the occupied West Bank, which Israeli officials admit is taking place with a green light from the government.

The storming also comes as Israel is attempting to annex the entire territory of the occupied West Bank through systematic land theft and expansion of illegal settlements, led in large part by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and other officials.

Can you blame these Palestinians for being furious?

Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank have distributed threatening leaflets on cars and left bloodied dolls at schools, warning Palestinians to leave or be killed.

"By God, we will descend upon your heads with a great catastrophe soon. You have the last chance to escape to Jordan in an organised manner," said one leaflet circulated on Friday in the West Bank city of Salfit.

"After that, we will destroy every enemy and forcefully expel you from our holy land … Load your bags immediately and leave wherever you came from. We are coming."

The leaflet also warned of a new "major Nakba", referencing the 1948 displacement of 750,000 Palestinians from their homeland.
