Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister Riyad al-Malki called on United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Thursday to intervene to prevent Israel from what he called "Israeli escalation measures against the Palestinians in Jerusalem and the actions the Israelis have been taking in recent days against al-Aqsa mosque."
The only action Israel has taken "against" the mosque is to limit the access of Muslim men under the age of 50 to the Temple Mount in the wake of violence incited by Muslims claiming that the Jews were going to attack the mosque.
