% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
Muslim media outlets around the world watching the recent controversies at the Temple Mount have reacted with mocking and derision after Israel agreed to remove security cameras.
Talk about stoking tensions.
Israel only installed cameras and metal detectors at the holy site in response to fatal attacks from Palestinian terrorists. Now, instead of bowing out gracefully and recognizing Israel was going above and beyond in making concessions to Palestinians, the Muslim world has responded with taunts.
Specifically, the taunts have come in the form of newspaper cartoons and social media memes.
Arab-language media around the world celebrated the removal of security measures at the Temple Mount, and the return of Muslims to pray there, with cartoons mocking the Israel’s perceived capitulation.
Early on Thursday Israel took down the last of a series of security installations it had erected at entrances to the holy site, known to Muslims as Haram al-Sharif (Noble Sanctuary), following a July 14 terror attack in which assailants used guns smuggled into the compound to kill two policemen guarding near there.
One cartoon published in Saudi Arabia’s Al Watan newspaper depicted the golden Dome of the Rock, which stands on the Temple Mount, with the crescent that caps the dome replaced by a raised hand making a “V for victory” sign.

The London-based al-Quds al-Arabi paper showed a hook-nosed Israeli soldier carrying a metal detector being shooed away from the Temple Mount by an old man with a cane, a young man with a rock, a woman with a broom and a boy with a slingshot.

A cartoon from Jordan’s Al-Rad newspaper depicted a huge, bloodied foot breaking free of its star of David chains and about to crush a screaming Israeli soldier.
