Another Hate Crime By Jerusalem Youth Against Arabs
The following is a detailed description of a hateful mob attacking Christian Arabs in Jerusalem, yet again.
This occurred on Monday, August 20, from 8:00 p.m. to midnight when a group of fifty boys attacked the residential complex for 79 families which is part of a project of the Franciscans of the Holy Land. Following a brawl between young people of the Christian area and some neighbors, friends were called and they all attacked the complex, yelling, throwing stones, smashing cars and windows of houses. A number of residents were injured and one had to be hospitalized for treatment. ”They do so because they know that we will not respond with violence!” protested David Josef, a father of five children, as he emphasized: “This is the third time this happened to us in two years …”
The Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, Archbishop Fouad Twal, the Custos of the Holy Land, Father Pierbattista Pizzaballa, ofm and Auxiliary Bishop of Jerusalem, William Shomali accompanied by Priests and Franciscan Friars visited Bethphage on Wednesday morning to show their solidarity with the residents. They heard the complaints and sentiments expressed by the population and saw first-hand the damage resulting from these unlawful actions.
Here’s a video of the aftermath.
Caveat, don’t try to find this report in the international media. You see, the attackers are Muslims.
All agreed in condemning these events and to take necessary measures to prevent recurrence. The importance of good neighbor relations was emphasized between the residents of the housing complex and their Muslim neighbors.

You’re right, Dan. The Western media has ignored this story. It’s important to let people know what is going on in Jerusalem and the West Bank. Thanks for sharing.
I guess we won’t be seeing a 60 minutes update on Christians in the Holy Land anytime soon.
so if a few kids beating up a few other kids qualifys as a lynching for the jew haters… then im calling this a lynching too.
Actually when Jews do it, the entire nation of Israel and Jews across the world and from the beginning of time to the end, are of course guilty of crimes against humanity. I believe this is how the BBC’s style guide is worded.
Yep. While Arabs/Muslims get even their genocides explained away as “reacting to Western colonialism.” Them’s the standards. That’s the way it works. And if you want it changed, “pretty please make your coverage of us a little bit fairer” won’t cut it—only strong-arming can.
If you go to 1:51 minutes into the video you will notice the “Apartheid Medical System” in action. Look at the ambulance.
