Haredim Riot In Jerusalem

Y-Net reports:

Hundreds of ultra-Orthodox men rioted Tuesday night in Jerusalem's Shabbat Square, stoning police and injuring four officers.

One officer was taken to Shaare Zedek hospital in the capital, and four people were arrested, including three teens. Several civilians were hurt promptly treated at the scene. Several cars were also damaged in the riots.

Police believe the riot was in protest of plans to build the trans-Israel highway over ancient Jewish graves.

Following Tuesday's Simchat Torah holiday, hundreds of people gathered in Shabbat square, in the ultra-Orthodox neighborhood of Mea Shearim, and began throwing rocks and burning garbage dumpsters.

Police attempted to calm things by closing the area to traffic until about 10:00 Wednesday morning.

Police are expected to decide Wednesday whether to extend the suspects' remand.

These parasites sure do seem to like stoning. Its one thing to protest and another think for a group that owes its subsistence to a modern Democratic society to stone the young men and women who protect them. Perhaps the army and police should treat them the same way they do Hamas and Fatah because because all three are enemeies of Jewish existence

I suggets that you go back with your friend hitler to where you originally have come -- the fucken dust!
