Mazel Tov from the Jewish Squatters in the West Bank
A 19-year old Swedish human rights worker had her cheekbone broken by a Jewish extremist in Hebron today. Earlier the same day at least five Palestinians, including a 3-year-old child, were injured by the settler-supporting extremists, who rampaged through Tel Rumeida hurling stones and bottles at local residents. Palestinian schoolchildren on their way home were also attacked. The Israeli army, which was intensively deployed in the area, did not intervene to stop the attacks.
Tove Johansson from Stockholm walked through the Tel Rumeida checkpoint with a small group of human rights workers (HRWs) to accompany Palestinian schoolchildren to their homes. They were confronted by about 100 Jewish extremists in small groups. They started chanting in Hebrew “We killed Jesus, we’ll kill you too!” — a refrain the settlers had been repeating to internationals in Tel Rumeida all day.
After about thirty seconds of waiting, a small group of very aggressive male Jewish extremists surrounded the international volunteers and began spitting at them, so much so that the internationals described it as “like rain.” Then men from the back of the crowd began jumping up and spitting, while others from the back and side of the crowd kicked the volunteers.
The soldiers, who were standing at the checkpoint just a few feet behind the HRWs, looked on as they were being attacked.
One settler then hit Tove on the left side of her face with an empty bottle, breaking it on her face and leaving her with a broken cheekbone. She immediately fell to the ground and the group of Jewish extremists who were watching began to clap, cheer, and chant. The soldiers, who had only watched until this point, then came forward and motioned at the settlers, in a manner which the internationals described as “ok… that’s enough guys.”
The extremists, however, were allowed to stay in the area and continued watching and clapping as the HRWs tried to stop the flow of blood from the young woman’s face. Some, who were coming down the hill even tried to take photos of themselves next to her bleeding face, giving the camera a “thumbs-up” sign.
At this point, a HRW was taken into a police van and asked to identify who had attacked the group. The HRW did this, pointing out three Jewish extremists who the police took into their police vehicles. However, the extremists were all driven to different areas of the neighborhood and released nearly immediately. When one of the three was released on Shuhada Street, the crowd that was still celebrating the woman’s injuries applauded and cheered.
A settler medic came to the scene about 15 minutes after the attack and immediately began interrogating the internationals who had been attacked about why they were in Hebron. He refused to help the bleeding woman lying on the street in any way.
Five minutes after the settler medic arrived, the army medic arrived and began treating the injured woman. When she was later put on a stretcher, the crowd again clapped and cheered.
Police officers at the scene then began threatening to arrest the remaining HRWs if they did not immediately leave the area, even though they had just been attacked.
The injured woman was taken to Kiryat Arba settlement and then to Hadassah Ein Keren hospital in Jerusalem.
HRWs were later told by the police that they had not even taken the names of those who were identified as having attacked the HRWs and that one of the main assailants had simply told the police that he was due at the airport in two hours to fly back to France.
The incident was the latest attack by extremist Jews in Hebron. The small group of Khannist settlers in Tel Rumeida regularly attack and harass Palestinians in the area. The violence sometimes spills over to the international human rights workers who accompany Palestinians in an attempt to protect them from settler attack.
The settlers in Tel Rumeida encourage Jewish tourists to come to support them, as a way of making up for their small numbers. Today, hundreds had come from tours in Israel for a special event — many from overseas: France, England and the United States.

What an experience, to be able to harrass and physically attack Muslims and Christians under the protection of IDF!
That must be wonderful, where else in the world can Jews engage in such fulfilling activities without the risk of being pursecuted by the anti-Semites?
The fact that the so-called settlers have the guts to call in Jewish tourists tells you that their sence of aggressiveness is widely shared in their community.
I did a post on this some time ago that includes a brief transcript of the video.
it's good to keep reminding people around the world exactly what kind of mentality we're up against in israel.

"Money" has no value - people do.
i'm not into religion, but was raised in a strict Catholic family and have read the bible a few times, so i've got a little background on that stuff.
If one would look at the ME without the blaring headlines shoved down our throats by the Zionist owned MSM and throw in a little bible reading, to me, it seems that the Palestinians are the actual chosen ones that were predicted to be under assualt for trying to stay in Palestine/Israel and not the Khazars.
JC couldn't even get along with his own people, the Jews, and was forever in trouble pointing out to them their love of money and possessions was not the way to obtain heaven, which they didn't like.
When they got tired of listening to too much truth, they arranged with the Roman governor to kill JC, to shut him up.
Fast forward 2,000 years, and this same bunch of materialists are again into Mammon worship and again, killing off those who disagree with their insane lifestyle.
But, that's just my 2 cens worth.
In Deuteronomy we can read about God's blessings that he will pour on his people if they obey his commands and the courses that will result from disobedience.
The Jews were disobedient and were cursed by God who did not let them grow in numbers, who scattered them and who made them a persecuted minority even in a "Jewish" context:
The masters of the Jews are the Khazars who do not have one drop of Semitic blood in them, and they are referred to in Revelations 2:9 and 3:9 as "The Synagogue of Satan".
If you are hesitant to accept such a harsh description of today's Israel it should be sufficient to remember that:
