Lives in Israel (1990–present)Jun 18
As a Palestinian who's visited Israel, how did Israelis treat you?
Noor Dahari Muslim. Executive Director of Islamic Theology for Countering Terrorism and Muslims Against Antisemitism
I visited the Aksa Mosque and the Wailing Wall and prayed at both places. I was so ashamed to see that I had free access to all Jewish religious areas of the Western Wall to pray and not a single religious Jew ever bothered to stop me but Jews weren't even allowed to approach the Damascus Gate! (A Jew walked up and said "God bless you" as I was taking a video).
Where is the freedom of religion and expression? We Muslims have the right to go anywhere in Israel, but the Jews are not allowed to go even to certain areas of Jerusalem. This is the great example of Muslim apartheid in Jerusalem.
