ISRAEL: THE BASTION OF DEMOCRACY (LOL!) IN THE M.E. BANS CALL TO PRAYERS IN MOSQUES


ISRAEL: THE BASTION OF DEMOCRACY (LOL!) IN THE M.E. BANS CALL TO PRAYER IN MOSQUES


SNIP:

Thousands of internet users have attacked the Facebook page of an Israeli lawmaker who has called for a ban on call to prayers (Adhan) at mosques in the occupied Palestinian territories.

In July, the Israeli regime also blocked the broadcast of Adhan from the holy Ibrahimi Mosque in the occupied West Bank.

In a Sunday cabinet meeting, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu voiced support for the bill, saying that there was "no need to be more liberal than Europe."

Meanwhile, many mosques in the Palestinian territories have become targets of constant attacks by Israeli settlers, who have been heavily armed by Tel Aviv authorities and enjoy near immunity.

Muslim nations have frequently blamed such acts on the Israeli regime, calling them a sacrilege of Islamic sanctities.

The Israeli foreign minister has lauded Premier Benjamin Netanyahu for supporting a bill banning calls to worship from mosques in the occupied Palestinian lands.

Avigdor Lieberman claimed that the controversial proposal was a "legitimate" one, adding that "there are similar precedents in the Western world," the Israeli daily newspaper Haaretz reported on Monday.
The bill, proposed by Yisrael Beiteinu Party member Anastassia Michaeli, is believed to be the first attempt to impose a ban on calls to worship from mosques since the 1948 Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories.
