Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) head says that Abbas isnt inciting terrorism, PA Supreme Sharia Judge and Abbass adviser corrects him. Israeli security officials are in denial - If there was any doubt, PA want it to be clear. PA Supreme Sharia (Islamic law) Judge and Abbass adviser Mahmoud Al-Habbash appeared on official PA TV on November 5, after several attacks and hours before another one in Jerusalem that left two dead, where he clarified that Abbas is indeed inciting terrorism. Al-Habbash used the term ribat meaning a religious war or conflict to defend or reconquer land defined as Islamic in describing the recent wave of terror attacks sweeping over Jerusalem, tying the terror to the status of the Temple Mount - the holiest site in Judaism - where the Jordanian Waqf (Islamic trust) continues to wield de facto control and forbid Jewish prayer. This statement may have angered the Israelis and the occupation, that the President is inciting the Palestinians from Jerusalem to ribat. Yes, we are inciting the people in Jerusalem to ribat. Ribat means to protect and to hold on to your ground, said Al-Habbash in an admission of incitement. In his speech, Abbas said we must all carry out ribat so as to prevent Jews by any means necessary from entering the Temple Mount, because they have no right to enter it. They have no right to defile it. PMW documented how a clip of this part of the speech was given heavy rotation on PA TV, and how the call for violence bears a close resemblance to former PA Chairman Yasser Arafats call for the 2000 Second Intifada. israelnationalnews/News/News.aspx/187612#.VGuqxfmUdRw
