Charedim Block Roads in Protest of Parking Lot's Opening on Shabbat

Jerusalem - Five police officers sustained light wounds as hundreds of haredim rioted in the capital to protest the opening of the Karta parking lot on Shabbat.
The ultra-Orthodox protestors blocked roads in the area and clashed with secular demonstrators presented at the site to support the disputed parking lot's opening.

@MrDolemike1977 Not necessarily. But it is daft.It's bizarre and sad that people still think they have the right to tell other people how to live their lives.

Religion is a JOKE!!

@4yumikid Isn't protesting on Shabbat breaking Shabbat?

These are the jews Israel was given to, the descendents of the holocaust survivors from all the groups of Chassidim. These evil police are the ones who should get out of Jerusalem. In the holy city to open up a parking lot on Shabbos. They should move to america and let the Chassidim and religious jews practice the halacha in peace. You have not tricked me.

@blaksmithzo dude u can't say that... charedim are religious jews... if u dont wanna be religious thats fine.... ur still jewish, but the religious ones who are actually u can't say they're not jewish... i'm a charedi and i can assure u i dont do that.... its certain tiny groups who like to make a spectical of themselves... i wouldn't even call them charedim
