More Fanciful Incitement (and Lies)

The Arabs quickly follow up on this story with a quite fanciful one:

PSL warns Arabs, Muslims of dangerous Israeli excavations under the Aqsa Mosque

Palestine Scholars League has warned Sunday the Arab and Muslim countries that they should seriously mobilize to protect the Aqsa Mosque, explaining that the Israeli excavations under the Mosque reached alarming levels.

In a statement it issued, and a copy of which was obtained by the PIC, the PSL asserted that the Israeli excavations were close to the foundations of the Aqsa Mosque, adding that that the floor of a classroom in an UNRWA-run school in Silwan suburb in occupied Jerusalem had collapsed because of those excavations. The classroom is tens of meters away from the Mosque, the UNRWA said.

"Those Israeli diggings indicate that the Israeli malicious schemes against the Aqsa Mosque and the occupied city of Jerusalem have reached serious levels that should prompt Arabs and Muslims to act immediately to protect the holy Muslim shrine", the PSL underlined.


They are not close.

They are hundreds of meters away, about 350 by my estimate.
