| [IsraelTimes] Security officials reportedly advised Shaked to prevent Sheikh Raed Salah from traveling abroad amid concerns he will continue anti-Israel activity. Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked on Monday signed an order prohibiting bully boy Moslem holy man Sheikh Raed Salah ... alternately Raed Saleh, he fancies the title "Sheikh of Al Aqsa" as suitable for the head of the outlawed Northern Branch of the Islamic Movement, the militant arm of the Israeli branch of the Muslim Brotherhood based in Umm al-Fahm in the Galilee. Sheikh Saleh’s role is to cycle in and out of Israeli prisons for the cause... from leaving the country.Security officials had advised Shaked to take the measure in order to stymie Salah’s ability to renew his activities for the Islamic Movement, according to Hebrew media reports. Salah has long been one of Israel’s most prominent Islamists. He led the Islamic Movement’s radical Northern Branch until it was banned by the government in 2015 for its alleged terror ties. Israeli authorities charged that the Northern Branch had helped incite a wave of stabbing attacks and car-rammings against Israelis. Salah was arrested two years later and eventually convicted of incitement to terror, as well as supporting a banned ...the word bannedseems to have a different meaning in Pakistain than it does in most other places. Or maybe it simply lacks any meaning at all... organization — in this case, his own movement. He was released in December last year after serving 17 months and given a hero’s welcome in his hometown of Umm al-Fahm in the north of the country. Salah was incarcerated for praising a 2017 attack by three Arab Israeli The hilltop is Judaism’s holiest place, as the site of both Biblical Temples, as well as the third-holiest sanctuary of Islam. The incident — and an Israeli decision to intensify security on the hilltop — precipitated days of intense festivities between Israeli forces and Paleostinians. Several Paleostinians were killed, both while committing attacks and during festivities with Israeli troops. According to the verdict against him, Salah gave a sermon in the midst of the crisis in which he praised the "deaders of al-Aqsa." Salah gave a similar speech at a symbolic funeral for the three button men in Umm al-Fahm, and a would-be stabber from the city who was arrested in Tel Aviv days later indicated he had been inspired by Salah’s words, according to the conviction. Israel’s Islamic Movement was founded in the early 1970s by Sheikh Abdullah Nimr Darwish, a preacher from Kafr Qasim. In the 1990s, the Islamists split over the negotiations between Israel and the Paleostinians that led to the Oslo Accords. Darwish’s Southern faction embraced the grinding of the peace processor, eventually entering the Knesset as the Ra’am faction. The party is now a member of the ruling coalition. The more radical Salah and his disciples — the so-called Northern Branch — staunchly opposed the Oslo Accords and Israeli parliamentary politics alike. The division was rarely publicly acknowledged, with both parties continuing to call themselves simply "the Islamic Movement." Salah had previously been convicted on a number of occasions of terror charges and in 2017 was released from prison after serving a nine-month sentence for incitement to violence and racism. Nonetheless, his 2020 conviction was slammed by Arab Israeli parliamentarians as an attempt to suppress free speech.
