Arab Knesset member says Jews don't have any rights to Western Wall

He wears a tie so he's a moderate
Taleb Abu Arar, a Knesset member under the United Arab List, has said that Jews have no claim on the Kotel or the Temple Mount.

He issued a statement saying "no matter how Zionists try to falsify history, they will not succeed. The Jews do not have any right to the Al-Aqsa Mosque or the Buraq Wall Buraq, and there is no statute of limitations [on this issue.]"

Speaking from the Temple Mount in a meeting with the Al Aqsa Heritage Foundation, Abu Arar added that "Zionism is trying hard to defraud, and this is recognized by Jewish rabbis, who deny the Jewish Zionists claims in their right-to Aqsa and the Wailing Wall as invalid."

He said that the Jews who visited the Temple Mount on Yom Ha'Atzmaut "in the shadow of the Nakba" intended to change Israeli public opinion towards building a Temple on the Mount.

"The presence and the leaders of the Islamic movement in al Aqsa are here today... to deal with the break-ins and tackle the extremists trying to enter the Haram and who threatened to storm al Aqsa."

A Palestinian group that calls itself a "Human Rights Center" counted 1300 Jews and Israeli soldiers who went up to the Temple Mount in April, calling each visit a "violation."

Because, of course, Jews have no human rights.
