Celebrating Arafat's death not a crime

2008-08-04

I knew that...
A Jerusalem court has awarded three Israeli far-right activists NIS 4.500 each in damages after they were detained by Jerusalem police for publicly celebrating the death of the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat four years ago, court documents released Sunday showed.
Should've handed out sweets to the kiddies...
The three men, Itamar Ben-Gvir, Baruch Ben-Yosef and Israel Bramnson, had been taken in for questioning by police after holding an honorary barbecue in a central Jerusalem square in November 2004 following news of Arafat's death.

#1 Aah, I miss the Arafat death watch. That was so fun, a pity it's over.

Oh, wait, it's not a pity at all. But still.
