Pro-Islamic State Gathering On Temple Mount Filmed By Israeli TV
2014-09-05
[IsraelTimes] Israel's Channel 10 on Wednesday night broadcast what it said was footage from a recent "Islamic State gathering" on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

The report, which is to be broadcast in full next week, said the gathering underlined that Islamic State intends to focus on Israel in the future.

Formally, the gathering, attended by thousands, was organized by the Tahrir party, which the report described as being the "Paleostine branch" of Islamic State.
For all the shouts of victory, Hamas lost big to Israel, so another strong horse must be found.
Speakers were filmed
Prob'ly not just by Channel 10...
anticipating the liberation of Jerusalem and decrying Jewish pollution of the city. Several black IS flags were seen in the footage.

The footage was filmed on a recent Friday, the report said.

The news hound, Zvi Yehezkeli, said a photograph of a Paleostinian youngster holding an IS flag that proliferated on social media over the past week was taken next to where he was standing.

Yehezkeli said he had expected to be stopped by Israeli Police when he tried to enter the Mount area at a time designated for Moslem prayers, and that it was frightening to be in the plaza while the IS gathering was taking place.

He claimed that the Islamic State, "now knocking on Jordan's door, has marked 'Paleostine' as the next target on its list."
It's an ancient tradition: Joshua sent spies into Jericho, after all.
The group has made large gains in Syria and Iraq, where it has been targeted by US Arclight airstrikes.

On Wednesday, an Israeli foreign ministry spokesperson wrote on twitter that Steven Sotloff, an American journalist beheaded by IS in a video released a day earlier, held Israeli citizenship. The Foreign Ministry declined to confirm the information.

Sotloff, a Jewish native of Miami and the grandson of Holocaust survivors, came to Israel in 2008 to pursue an undergraduate degree at the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya.
Another Times of Israel report adds:
Paleostinians from the Gazoo Strip and the West Bank have joined the ranks of the Islamic State group, Channel 2 reported Thursday, citing intelligence sources.

The report came a day after Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon formally designated the organization a terror group, along with Al-Qaeda affiliate Abdallah Azzam Brigades.

That move enables Israel to act against the organizations by prohibiting gatherings, recruitment, fundraising and other activities, Israel Radio reported.

The step was taken upon the recommendation of the Shin Bet, possibly to grant the organization legal tools to deal with Paleostinian jihadis who might return from fighting in the group’s ranks in Syria and Iraq.
