Official PA TV newsreader: “Our people inside the Green Line (i.e., Palestinian term for Israel; the Green Line is the ceasefire line between Israel and the neighboring Arab countries, 1949-1967) came out in a demonstration of unifying the ranks in Tamra (i.e., Israeli Arab town) against the occupation’s actions against our people, and the harming of its holy sites in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre (refers to violent Arab riots and Israeli attempts to restore order -Ed.).”
