PM tells Kerry he expects PA to end anti-Israel incitement

Prime Minister Netanyahu spoke yesterday with US Secretary of State John Kerry, and told him he expects the Palestinian Authority to put a halt to the incitement against Israel that is fueling the current terror surge, Netanyahu’s office says.

Kerry said the US is aware that Israel is not seeking to change the status quo at the Temple Mount, the statement says. Claims that Israel intends to allow Jewish prayer at the contested holy site have been widely disseminated by Fatah, Israel’s own Islamic Movement and others, despite insistent Israeli denials.
