Wednesday, July 31 2002-OCCUPIED JERUSALEM-Israeli occupation soldiers looked on nonchalantly Wednesday as Jewish militants attacked Palestinian civilians and vandalized their property in the heart of the old quarter of Hebron. |
Eyewitnesses said Jewish women and youths attacked Palestinian children and women at the Qasaba quarter while Israeli soldiers were looking on.
Earlier this week, Israeli militants in Hebron carried out a wide rampage against Palestinians and their property which culminated in the killing of a 13-year-old Arab girl.
There are about 400 hundred Jewish extremists living in Hebron in the midst of 170,000 Palestinians.
The extremist settlers, many of them immigrants from North America, are viewed by Palestinians and many Israelis as a perpetual source of tension in the city.
In 1994, one of the settlers - a physician trained to heal - attacked Palestinian worshipers inside the Ibrahimi Mosque in the Old town of Hebron with a machinegun, killing 29 of them and injuring many others before he himself was killed by survivors.
Frightened worshipers rushed out of the mosque to be shot at by Israeli troops. 21 More Palestinians were ten killed.
Most of the settlers in Hebron are affiliated with the messianic Jewish movement known as Gush Eumnim (bloc of the faithful), which advocates the extermination or expulsion of non-Jews from Palestine.

"Frightened worshipers rushed out of the mosque to be shot at by Israeli troops. 21 More Palestinians were ten killed."
29 worshippers were killed by Baruch Goldstein. That was the total number of people killed in the shooting. There was no evidence that any of the victims were hit by bullets fired by the soldiers stationed outside the Patriach cave is the place where both Muslims and Jews believe that Abraham is buried and at the time there were both Jews and Muslims in the complex, each group with seperate prayer chambers.
These inaccurcies, quoting no doubt arab news sources which surfaced in the hours after the horrible attack, and that were later found to be false, cause me to seriously doubt the truth in the main point of this article, the uncollaborated eyewitness accounts of attacks on Palestinians by settlers today.
I guess that on a day when terrorists kill 7 people (2 Israelis and 5 foreign nationals, including an American) in a cafetria at the Hebrew university in Jerusalem, there is a need by some people to draw attention away from these awful news (for which there are certainly more than just "eyewitness accounts"). |
