Melody Sucharewicz: The Islamist echo grows louder | Timesofisrael

July 14, 2017: Three terrorists open fire near the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. Two Israeli policemen are killed, another is seriously injured. The terrorists come from the northern Arab-Israeli city of Umm el-Fahm. Over a period of 21 years Umm el-Fahm was ruled by a now illegal Islamist movement – under the slogan “Al-Aqsa is in danger”. The terrorists smuggled their guns into the complex the day before and hid them in the mosque. In response, Israel installs metal detectors to prevent further terrorist attacks and to protect praying Muslims in the mosque.
