Fatah calls for violence to prevent Jerusalem Flag parade

Text and video posted on the official Fatah Facebook page

Posted text: "Calls from the [Al-Harak] Al-Shababi [Movement] (an umbrella group of Palestinian youth movements that has been declared a terrorist organization by Israel –Ed.) to come to the Al-Aqsa Mosque tomorrow morning [June 2, 2019] and to the Damascus Gate at 5:00 p.m. in order to emphasize the Arabness and Islamicness of Jerusalem to the herds of settlers who want to desecrate the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the streets and alleys of Jerusalem in order to turn the last days of the Ramadan into resolve for Allah."

Video subtitles:

"This Sunday, June 2, 2019, will not be a regular day for the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The Zionist Temple groups plan to invade the Al-Aqsa Mosque on this day with 2,000 settlers.

This is the anniversary of what is called Jerusalem Unification Day (i.e., Jerusalem Day],

The day that the Zionist occupied the eastern part of the city according to the Hebrew calendar.

This day comes two days after the last Friday of the month of Ramadan.

Every year in the month of Ramadan on this Friday the greatest Islamic presence at the Al-Aqsa Mosque plazas is recorded.

The Al-Harak Al-Shababi Movement calls on you to stay at the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the eve of the 28th of Ramadan.

And to continue to stay at the Al-Aqsa Mosque until Sunday morning.

This is in order to thwart the attempts of the Zionist Temple groups to invade and celebrate the anniversary of 'Jerusalem Unification Day,' as the [Palestinian] public has succeeded in thwarting the Zionist plan of imposing a division of [prayer] times (see note below –Ed.), and the invasions during the Jewish holidays in September 2015 (referring to when a new terror wave began; see note below –Ed.); and the cancellation of the decision to place metal detectors at the Al-Aqsa Mosque gates (i.e., the gates to the Temple Mount) during the Lion's Gate protest (decision made in July 2017 following attacks at the Temple Mount; see note below –Ed.); and the opening of a place of worship at the Gate of Mercy by force after a Zionist closure that had lasted 16 years (referring to riots in February 2019; see note below –Ed.).

For the last three years and until 2021, the anniversary of Jerusalem Unification Day has and will fall in the month of Ramadan.

The [Israeli] government and the Temple extremists are waiting to invade this year as they see it as legitimizing the coming years.

Stay at the Al-Aqsa Mosque from Friday evening the 27th of the month of Ramadan. An intensive stay at the Al-Aqsa Mosque is the key to thwarting the Zionist plan to Judaize the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Division according to areas and times

Palestinian terror wave (2015-2016)

The mention of "the decision to place metal detectors at the Al-Aqsa Mosque gates during the Lion's Gate protest" refers to Israeli security measures at the Temple Mount, including metal detectors at the entrances, following an attack there on July 14, 2017, in which 2 Israeli border police officers were murdered by 3 Israeli Arab terrorists. On July 24, 2017, Israel decided to remove the metal detectors and security cameras it had placed at the site. The PA continued to demand that all measures including inspections at the entrances be removed, and Palestinians continued to riot. On July 27, 2017, PA religious leaders declared that all Israeli measures had been removed.
