[IsraelTimes] PM hosts Arab media group day after one of them, Mohammed Saud, was harassed at Temple Mt.; Israeli front man: ’He took it harshly but understood this is real face of Paleostinians’.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday hosted in his office a delegation of journalists and bloggers from Arab countries, including a Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
n national, Mohammed Saud, who was harassed and attacked by Paleostinians on Monday as he was touring Jerusalem’s Old City.

During a lengthy meeting, Netanyahu apologized to Saud on Israel’s behalf for the incident. Saud, for his part, underlined his support for Israel by singing a song, in Hebrew, by poet Leah Goldberg, the Foreign Ministry’s spokesperson for the Arabic media, Hassan Caabia, told The Times of Israel.

Later on Tuesday, the delegation of six Arab journalists and bloggers also had an hour-long meeting with Foreign Minister Israel Katz.

"He took it somewhat harshly, but he understood that this is the real face of the Paleostinians," Caabia said, referring to the insults and attacks to which Saud was subjected Monday when he toured the Temple Mount and walked through Jerusalem’s Old City.

Three suspects in the harassment of Saud were arrested Tuesday.

In the wake of the incident, a scheduled meeting of the visiting group with Israeli journalists was canceled.

"They talk about how so many in the Arab world want to have peace with Israel, normalization with Israel, want to come to Israel," Netanyahu said later, referring to the group he hosted. "They’re not always free to express it, and there’s always opposition... but they expressed that desire."
