Sheikh Raed Salah, the virulent and traitorous leader of Israel's Islamic Movement, called on local Muslims Friday to launch a new violent uprising, or "intifada," over Israel's minor renovation work at the Temple Mount.

Israel is working to repair a collapsed earthen ramp leading to the Temple Mount's Mugrabi Gate, the sole access point to the holy site for Christians and Jews.

Salah and other Muslim leaders throughout the region claim Israel is really trying to undermine the foundations of the mosques that currently occupy the biblical compound.

Small groups of Muslim youth answered Salah's call following Friday prayers, attacking police officers throughout the Israeli capital. Some 15-20 youths were arrested.
