Gazan Hamas-Supporters Burn French Flag on Temple Mount
Arutz Sheva ^ | 17/1/15 | Ari Yashar

A full 185 Arab residents of Gaza were given rare permission by Israel to hold prayers last Friday on the Temple Mount, where they promptly waved banners of the Hamas terrorist organization and burned French flags, protesting satire magazine Charlie Hebdo's recent cartoon of Mohammed.

The magazine's Paris headquarters were targeted in an Islamist terror attack two weeks ago, with 12 people including senior staff brutally murdered over its depictions of the founder of Islam. Defiantly the paper last week released a new edition with Mohammed on the cover, which has sold out in record time.

The nearly 200 Gaza residents apparently did not take kindly to the courageous act of free speech, as Palestinian Arab Ma'an News Agency reports they burned and stomped on French flags at the Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism.

I don’t understand the legal power that Israel has over the Palestinians, who appear largely as ungovernable barbarians.
If Israel had not ‘given permission’ for the Pals to congregate on the Temple Mount, what would have happened? More rock throwing?

Maybe there are fewer Palestinians than what many of us in the states presume. Does Israel provide the Hamas run regions with it’s water filtration, and electricity? If so, I’m surprised the Pals don’t do this for themselves, as virulent they are in hating anything Jewish. Perhaps I’m missing the overall pattern of who is providing what for whom in that area.

"A full 185 Arab residents of Gaza were given rare permission by Israel to hold prayers last Friday on the Temple Mount" -- They were given permission to leave Gaza and travel to the Temple Mount.

Releasing more terrotist murderers WILL help calm things down - provided they’re released at least 200 miles out in the ocean
