“If you're after evidence of apartheid, the Israel Police has declared the Temple Mount in Jerusalem off-limits to non-Muslims for ten days. Religious discrimination against non-Muslims is routine on the Temple Mount, which is governed by the Jerusalem Islamic Waqf, a Jordanian religious trust.
Limiting Jewish access to the hill does not stop Palestinian terror groups, preachers and media routinely prompting riots with false claims that the Zionists are "storming Al-Aqsa." Israeli police operations to curtail the rioting are then packaged by the international media and NGOs as a wanton Israeli attack on Muslim holy sites and worshipers. The mosque is said to be "desecrated" by Israeli police entering to stop rioting but not by the rioting itself. It is taken as a given that Israel ought to cede sovereignty in its capital city.
Yet this commitment to Western values only goes one way. It is not applied to Palestinian demands for a Jew-free state in Judea, Samaria and Gaza, nor to Palestinian prohibitions - backed up by the death penalty - against selling property to Jews. Most noticeably, it does not apply when Israel discriminates against its Jewish citizens and restricts their liberty of movement and freedom to manifest their religious faith.”
