| Hundreds of Palestinians riot on Temple Mount after Friday prayers |
| 2014-02-09 |
| [Jerusalem Post] Minutes after concluding Friday prayers, hundreds of Palestinians attacked officers with rocks at the Temple Mount. The violence came one day after police closed the holy site to Jews to avert another riot, following numerous anonymous threats from Arabs of probable violence should any Jews ascend. According to police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld, at approximately 12:30 p.m. the group began throwing rocks at police officers stationed there, without provocation. “Police responded immediately by entering the Temple Mount area and dispersing the rioters, using only stun grenades in order to prevent injuries,” he said. Most folks I know hit the buffet after church, then go home to ponder the sermon, or take a nice nap. Makes one wonder about the content of the sermon and their prayers. |
