Arab League: Jerusalem is a “red line”
The Arab League
Cairo - Emirates Voice
The Arab League warned Sunday that Jerusalem is a “red line that Arabs and Muslims will not tolerate tampering with”, accusing Israel of “playing with fire” and seeking to trigger a major crisis in the region.
Secretary General of the pan-Arab organisation, Ahmad Aboul Gheit, said in a statement that Israel is taking the region into an “extremely dangerous turn through its adoption of policies and measures that not only target the Palestinians, but inflame the feelings of every Arab and Muslim”.
“The Israeli government plays with fire and ventures to ignite a big crisis with the Arabs and Muslims by imposing new security measures for access into Jerusalem’s Al Aqsa Mosque/Haram Al Sharif”, the Arab League chief said.
He was commenting on Israel’s installation of metal detectors and tightening of security at the entrances to Al Aqsa Mosque, Islam’s third holiest shrine, which sparked Palestinian protests and elicited angry reactions across the region.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
