Worshipers were caught on camera crying over this action, reminiscent of darker days just 70 years ago .....

Fearing pro Israeli demonstrations after prayers, the New York Police Department denied access to observant Jews on their way to services at the Fifth Avenue Synagogue, one of the city's largest in the city. Abe Foxman was among those denied access and issued a press release immediately afterwards condemning this action, saying it was the integral right of the Jewish people to hold demonstrations in support of Israel. The release stated that all people should be allowed to express their feelings of support towards a nation they held dear to their hearts.

If the above actually happened (which it didn't) can you imagine the uproar it would create throughout every Jewish community in the world? Can you imagine the press coverage in every zionist controlled newspaper in the States?

But, when the following ACTUALLY happens, no one seems to give a damn..... just another case of 'They are only Palestinians'!

Israel restricts access to Al-Aqsa mosque

JERUSALEM -- Access to Jerusalem's flashpoint Al-Aqsa mosque compound was restricted Friday in a bid to prevent demonstrations in support of the Egyptian uprising after Muslim prayers, police said.

"This Friday, we are forbidding access to the compound to men under 50 years old carrying an Israeli identity card," police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld told Agence France-Presse.

The directive concerned Palestinians living in occupied East Jerusalem as well as Israeli citizens of Israel, he said.

All Palestinians from the occupied West Bank were barred, even if they had Israeli papers.

Only 6,000 faithful were able to participate in the prayers as a result of the measures, the Islamic Waqf endowment told AFP.

Rosenfeld said police had reinforced positions in the walled Old City, amid concerns violent demonstrations would be staged after Friday prayers in a show of solidarity with the popular uprising in Egypt.

But only sporadic incidents were reported in the neighborhood of Ras Al-Amoud, where young people threw stones at police who responded with tear gas, onlookers said.

The compound contains the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock and is the third holiest site in Islam after Mecca and Medina.
