Jerusalem seethes with clashes between Jews, Arabs
The week has been violent in Jerusalem with both Israeli Jews and Arabs reportedly attacking each other in well documented incidents.
Several violent incidents between Jews and Arabs have rocked Jaffa and Jerusalem over the past week.
Seven brawls between Jews and Arabs were reported yesterday, April 20, on Jerusalem's central Jaffa Street, near the Nablus Gate in east Jerusalem and in the Jewish Kiryat Yovel neighborhood. In another incident, a video recorded yesterday showed several Israeli Jews, some of them ultra-Orthodox, surrounding and cursing two Arabs in a car in the center of the city. At some point, one of the Arabs was sprayed with pepper spray while passers-by chanted, "death to the Arabs."
