Sheikh Raid Salah, who heads the northern branch of the Israel Islamic Association, continues to call on Muslims to come to Jerusalem�s Old City and defend �al-Aqsa against intruders� and to prevent them from visiting the Mount. Salah has been a very vocal voice behind the violence that has been taking place since erev Yom Kippur, and he is quoted in the daily Haaretz as stating �the violence will continue until the occupation of Jerusalem� by Israel comes to an end.
Salah has a long history of anti-Israel statements and actions, and has been linked in the past to fundraising and other activities carried out by Hamas.
In a related matter, PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) has issued a call to the world Arab community to step forward and support Jerusalem.
