At Hamas summer camp, kids 'liberate' Temple Mount, 'kill' Israeli troops

"Children at a Hamas summer camp staged a reenactment of the recent tensions at the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, with kids dressed up as Hamas fighters pretending to storm the compound and 'liberate' the holy site.

Footage of last month's graduation ceremony, which was translated Tuesday by the Middle East Media Research Institute, shows a group of children dressed up as Muslim worshipers confronting kids in Israeli Border Police costumes guarding metal detectors at the Mount, yelling, 'We want to pray in the Al-Aqsa Mosque.'

When the 'worshipers' refuse an order to leave the Mount by the kids playing border guards, the 'officers' aim their guns at the group and drive them away from the metal detectors, forcing them to hold prayers outside the site.

At the conclusion of the prayers, several of the children stand up and declare, 'We want to liberate Al-Aqsa,' and one of them pretends to stab one of the kids playing Border Police officers.

The rest of the group proceeds to pelt the border policemen with rocks to chants of 'Allahu Akbar,' and the officers open fire. The play's narrator announces that 'one martyr has fallen while carrying out a stabbing operation' after 'killing one of the Zionist pigs.'

With the riot escalating, the 'officers' attack the crowd, and sounds of gunfire can be heard alongside flurries of smoke meant to represent tear gas, and the announcer declares that 'another martyr has fallen' in the melee.

As the riot ends, a group of kids dressed up as members of Hamas's military wing arrive to 'liberate the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque,' while the rioters chant, 'With our souls and our blood we will redeem you, O Al-Aqsa,' a line often said by protesters during the actual standoff over the security measures at the site.

After blowing up the metal detectors, the terrorists proceed to knock down the rest of the gates and storm the Temple Mount in a hail of gunfire, as the narrator says 'the mujahideen [holy warriors] are confronting the Zionist pigs and wiping them out.'..."
