Israel to demolish 22 Palestinian homes in J'lem to build park

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- The Israeli municipal council in occupied Jerusalem approved a plan to build a new Jewish park in place of 22 Palestinian homes to be demolished in Al-Bustan neighborhood.

In a letter handed to the Israeli premier, head of the municipal council Nir Barakat asked Benjamin Netanyahu to approve this plan and proposed as well the launch of three civilian projects for Israeli settlers in other four Palestinian neighborhoods in east Jerusalem.

The municipal council was intending to implement the plan last June, but it was condemned by the Palestinians and the international community which made Netanyahu freeze the park project.

In another incident, different Israeli websites revealed that extremist Jewish groups encourage their supporters to participate intensively in the break-ins organized daily at the Aqsa Mosque.

These websites also posted photographs and video shots on their pages showing Israeli extremists under military protection desecrating the courtyards of the Aqsa Mosque and performing their rituals.

Palestinian local sources affirmed that the extremists often make their tours in the area known as Horsh near the triple gate or in the courtyard of The Dome of the Rock Mosque.
