"The Israel Police raided the Palestinian bookstore, The Educational Bookshop, in East Jerusalem on Tuesday for the second time in a month, detaining one of its owners, 61-year-old Imad Muna, for questioning.
"Muna's family, who manage the store, told Haaretz that the police confiscated books and ordered the store's closure without presenting a search or arrest warrant."

The Educational Bookshop in Jerusalem has been raided again by Israeli Police. Book-keeper Imad Muna has been arrested and later released. His son, Ahmed Muna, explains what happened and lists books that have been seized, including one by Chomsky and Palestine by Joe Sacco.
Let me preface by saying that I am not a Muslim, my middle eastern family have been Christians since the time of the Prophets.Thus, I am no scholar of Islamic faith, and beg the forgiveness of my Muslim friends if I've crossed out of my lane, but I am deeply versed in Middle Eastern history and theology.
Refusing the Islamic faithful access to The Al-Aqsa Mosque during Ramadan is obscene. It is one of the holiest places in the faith, the location of the Night Journey of the Prophet Muhammad, where he is believed to have ascended to heaven.
This is cruelty for cruelty's sake.
(edit for clarity)
Next year in Jerusalem is said by Jews during Passover. During passover, Jews have a seder, which is a festive meal to retell the story of the Exodus. We always say "Next Year in Jerusalem."
But given the world today, this saying is also appropriate for everyday!
Also available in pink and we have many other Passover designs

"Ir Amim, which closely tracks settlement activity and demolitions in the city, said that 181 homes were destroyed last year, in addition to dozens of other structures.
"It said that more recently, Israel appears to have dropped a longstanding policy against demolishing homes during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which began last weekend."
*Phlegmatically, in a Jerusalemite voice* Shabbat Shalom! Happy Maslenitsa! Ramadan Mubarak!

> UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini reports that Israeli police raided UNRWA schools in and around occupied Jerusalem and ordered their closure, affecting 250 children in three schools in Jerusalem and 350 students at the Qalandia Training Institute.
#Armenians have lived in Jerusalem’s Old City for more than 1,500 years, but say their presence in the multifaith community has come under pressure in recent years, including from Jewish settlers and a land deal that could see a quarter of their land turned into a luxury hotel.

In occupied East Jerusalem, Israeli soldiers and authorities stormed the UNRWA Jerusalem Elementary Boys School in the Wadi al-Joz neighbourhood this morning, expelled students from their desks, and forced the staff to close the school.
Netanyahu orders immediate enforcement of UNRWA ban
The Israeli Prime Minister has issued a directive that the ban on the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, must be “enforced immediately”, with “no restrictions”.
Jordanian Crown Prince Al-Hussein bin Abdullah II affirmed in a meeting with President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi in Cairo on Sunday Jordan's support for Egypt's plan for reconstructing #gaza without displacing the Palestinians.
The Egyptian president and Jordan’s Crown Prince also warned of the dangers of the ongoing escalation in the #westbank and the attacks on Islamic and Christian holy sites in #jerusalem.
Report by Al Ahram
"The Heads of Churches in Jerusalem speak firmly against the uprooting of the people of Gaza from their land. Will American Christians, who claim to care for Middle Eastern Christians, for once listen to the Heads of Churches and speak against this evil plan?"
