Al-Aqsa Sheikh indicted for incitement against Jews

The State Attorney's office filed an indictment on Tuesday against Sheik Ali Ahmad Odeh for incitement, Israeli media reported. Approximately five years ago, Odeh said in a sermon at-Aqsa mosque, "Allah annihilate the Jews."

The State Attorney originally decided not to press charges, but a complaint filed a half-year ago by the organization Betzalmo, a human rights NGO, led to the current indictment.
