Israeli Bid To Judaize Buraq Wall Near Aqsa Mosque

Al-Quds, 9 Rajab 1438/6 April 2017 (MINA) – A bid was put forth by Israel’s Western Wall Heritage Foundation to establish the infrastructure of the so-called Haliba Judaization project in Occupied Jerusalem.

Settlement affairs expert Ahmad Sub Laban said the bid suggests the construction of a two-story building covering up to 4,000 meters and comprising exhibition halls and a guest room, the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) reported.

The projected bid will be built in an area located just dozens of meters away from the southern wall of holy al-Aqsa Mosque—Muslims’ third holiest site.

The Beit Haliba project falls in line with Israel’s western wall plan, in reference to a scheme targeting the historic Buraq Wall.

Beit Haliba plan was advanced by the fanatic Israeli rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz who pushed for transforming the Buraq Square into a space for holding Jewish parties.

Rabinowitz is the head of the Western Wall Heritage Foundation, backed by the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.(T/R04/RS5)
