Tense Quiet in Hevron

Tense Quiet in Hevron

From Israel National News:

"Hevron activist Baruch Marzel told Arutz-7, "We are just fighting for our land and our inheritance; it's ours and we don't plan to turn the other cheek." He accused the press of not telling the whole story: "For example, has anyone heard the case of the little 10-year-old tzaddik [righteous one] who, on his way out of evening prayers, was set upon by Yassam police who started beating him up; only when they saw how young he really was did they let him go...""

""They went into the Betar building," Wilder said, "right in the middle of the Avraham Avinu neighborhood, and declared the people standing on the roof as an illegal assembly - even though I never heard of such a thing on private property... They're also blocking off the ancient Avraham Avinu synagogue and not letting people into that area.""

""They've come simply to provoke us, to scare us and to show their strength," said David Wilder, spokesman for the Hevron Jewish Community. "They have come with a tremendous show of force - soldiers, police, Yassam, Border Guard, and horses - and they're just standing and watching. I don't think there's been one arrest. They're simply waiting for someone to attack them.""

Hebron is Jewish owned land and was never designated for Arabs.

If Israel is giving up land that was paid for by our grandparents and other relatives' blood, sweat and tears, so we could have a home to go to, we should ask for the money back - with interest!

Will enough people protest what's happening and ask for refunds?

No, they are preoccupied with the censure of those that support people of Chevron such as Pat Robertson.

Speaking about American funding, if I were on the House Foreign Relation's I would advocate the suspension of aid to Israel as long as the Sharon dictatorship is in power. What other country throws their own citizens out of land which was the site of massacare, only to be handed over to those very massacerers? Even the Israely Supreme Court ( the most liberal judicial body in the western world) ruled that this land belongs to Jews.

Yet, the brutal dictatorship sent in riot police armed with riot horses ( bread in Germany) and M-16's to attack unarmed kids including woman and girls. On Israelreporter.com one can find many of the documented atrocities commited by the Israeli police including the gassing of small children in Sdei Boaz and the beatings of young girls by a diproportionate number of Yassamnicks ( many of which aren't Jewish). It', heartbreaking to watch these outrages even for two minutes. Many of these incidents are currently posted on this site. Where are the Jewish leaders?
