Translated from French
Colonization advances. Right up to the foot of Al-Aqsa. And no one stirs. Not a single Arab leader. Not a single capital. Nothing.
Israel has just approved the seizure of twenty properties adjacent to the mosque, in the Bab al-Silsila sector. One of the oldest entrances to the sanctuary. Laden with Ayyubid, Mamluk, Ottoman history. But history, they couldn't care less. They want to control it, erase it, Judaize it.
The Jewish Quarter Development Society will carry out the confiscations. Their legal weapon? A 1968 decree. Official pretext: "to strengthen Jewish control and security." Translation: take, possess, exclude. It's a state plan, not the whim of isolated settlers. A plan to permanently alter the character of the Old City's most sacred corridor.
The UN has been alerted. UNESCO too. All Arab capitals have been called upon to intervene. But history has a bitter taste, and it tells us they will do nothing. Once again. While Israel nibbles away, they snore.
