Likud extreme-rightist Feiglin detained at a Temple Mount provocation | | Melanie Lidman/Gil Hofman - Moshe Feiglin, the most extreme-right of the Likud Party`s parliamentary candidates in the current elections, was detained when trying to pray loudly on Jerusalem`s Temple Mount (Haram a-Sharif). This highly sensitive compound had been the site of the Jewish Temple 2000 years ago, but for the past 1300 years it is among the most sacred of Islam`s holy sites. Members of other religions are allowed to visit there, but not pray or perform any religious observances and rites. Feiglin asserted that he was acting under authorization from God and also claimed to be "defending civil liberties". Also arrested in the same incident were a fellow right-wing Israeli and three Palestinians. Feiglin had already been arrested twice before in similar circumstances.

Eviction of East Jerusalem family temporarily postponed | | Mya Guarnieri - +972 Magazine - The Shamasneh family were to be evicted from their home in Sheikh Jarrah on the last day of 2012. The house would have been passed to the Israeli Custodian for Absentee Property and thence to settlers. The Jerusalem District Court ordered the eviction to be postponed until March 1, 2013 after the family’s lawyer appealed to Israel’s high court. Activists and politicians who support the Shamasnehs emphasize that this is just a temporary postponement in the eviction, and that the family of 10 is still in danger of losing their house. | 1/1/2013 |
