Fwd: Iran calls Australian Christian Tourist who started 1969 al Aqsa fire a "settler"

bs"d

Another example of a false accusation against settlers and by extension the entire State of Israel.  At the 13th conference of World Mosque day, today, August 20, 2015,  Iranian President Hassan Rouhani  holds a Jewish settler responsible for Al-Aqsa Mosgue arson that happened  in 1969.  This Al-Aqsa Mosque arson was committed by an  Australian,  Christian Tourist who was found to be mentally ill (insane). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denis_Michael_Rohan.  

The pattern of such false accusations are that it targets an individual settler who is then depicted as a reflection of the "aggressive, occupying, Zionist Regime". 

When will the government of Israel and all those who rush on the bandwagon to condemn the "Jewish terrorist" see the pattern that we are all lumped as one and that the settler is simply a means to tap into those who have Sinas Chinom (baseless hatred) against settlers or those who have a political agenda to attract those who are on the left or moderate who may harbor some negative feelings towards the settlers. This negativity towards the settler may have come as a result of either being brainwashed by the media or government and/or guilt or rationalization for having not stood up for them in the 2005 expulsion from Gush Katif.

If the gov't of Israel is under any current international pressure to give away any more land in Jerusalem or in  Judea and Samaria, and wishes to appease these political forces, they will use a house or two as a scapegoat.  In order for this plan to succeed, this needs to be preceded with demonetization in order to justify this immoral action.  Once an individual settler is isolated and condemned.  it usually morphs into a condemnation of the settler community in Judea and Samaria.

Al-Aqsa Mosque Arson Showed Zionist Regime's True Nature: Rouhani

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iranian President Hassan Rouhani underlined that Muslims will not forget the 1969 burning of al-Aqsa Mosque, adding that the event showed the Zionist regime of Israel's true nature.

The incident revealed that the aggressive and occupying Zionist regime has no commitment to social and human principles, the president said, addressing the 13th Conference of the World Mosque Day on Thursday.

"It was indicative of the true nature of the occupying, aggressive and terrorist Zionist regime, and on the other hand was a sign for awakening of Muslims and (the necessity of) safeguarding our religious and Islamic identity," he went on to say.

The fateful fire on Al-Aqsa, Islam's third holiest site, took place on 21st of August 1969 by a settler named Denis Michael Rohan, who believed that burning the mosque would pave the way for re-building the Jewish Temple on Temple Mount.

The fire gutted the Southeastern wing of the mosque and destroyed the one –thousand-year old Saladin's Minbar or platform, considered a unique masterpiece and one of its kind in the world.

It further destroyed the ornate wooden carved interior.

August 21 is named the World Mosque Day in remembrance of the event. ________________________________________
