On 5th April 2010, Israeli settlers attacked three Ecumenical Accompaniers in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood of East Jerusalem. One of the accomaniers, a woman in her sixties, was hit by a rock. Four of the young men in the video were later temporarily banned from the area.

I love it when people hate the jews.. that makes me love Jews more and more.. It is their promised lands!

So heartbreaking. My sister is in Bethlehem right now with the same program. @ theshomer: The Ecumenical Accompaniers are explicitly non-violent. My sister has been meeting with Palestinians *and* Israelis, listening to and recording stories, teaching non-violence, and going through checkpoints. Hardly a "terror-abetting fascist".

This is why the messenger must arrive over and over again... throwing stones obeys satan, not Creator.

The only way to fight far-Left & Islamofascist violence and terror against Jewish children is with swift counter-terror.

The Land of Israel and it's native Jewish people are having it bad enough with the current socialist Zionists' pseudo-state. If ISM and Hamas have it their way, it will become Khmer Rouge's Cambodia or Taliban's Afghanistan, and we just can't allow it.

What you don't see in this video is the IDF lurking nearby and giving cover to these hooligans.

Without the aegis of the 'most moral' these little punks wouldn't dare instigate violence for fear the little old Arab women in the neighborhood would put aside their knitting and spank them back to their mother's aprons.

@theshomer Terrorism: "violent acts which are intended to create fear, are perpetrated for an ideological goal (as opposed to a lone attack), and deliberately target or disregard the safety of non-combatants (civilians)."

That's exactly what those settlers (and others) are doing, and what your comment suggests you would have preferred happen to an even greater degree. Their actions are intended to instill a fear in anyone in support of human rights within the occupied Palestinian Territories.

When world sees the extent of the racist anti-Palestinian pogroms committed by the Israeli settler fanatics, perhaps support for Israel's system of Apartheid will finally collapse. Bravo to the brave Ecumenical accompaniers and their Palestinian allies.

Bah, with better aim he could get rid of the camera, thus freeing himself to do some real physical damage to EU "activists" (aka terror abetting fascists) with tourist visas.

But no matter, practice makes perfect :)
