A Night of Violence in Chevron

A Night of Violence in Chevron

It was a night of violence in Chevron with police reporting at least 11 Jews were arrested for allegedly attacking a border policeman.

Rumors began spreading early Monday night as a result of troop movements in the area, with a relatively large border police force appearing in the area. Bet HaShalom residents report about 1,000 people made their way to the area to resist an eviction. SMS text messages were circulating around the country, urging supporters to begin making their way to Chevron to prevent any attempt to evict residents of Bet HaShalom.

Community Spokesman blamed Defense Minister Ehud Barak�s "irresponsible behavior? for mounting tensions and disturbances in the area.

At about midnight, Arabs began pelting Jews with rocks, injuring over a dozen people lightly. Once again, many of the mainstream news agencies are using the violence to de-legitimize Chevron�s law-abiding Jewish community and to cast a doubt on their rightful acquisition of Bet Shalom.
