A funny thing happened on the way to the protest. The protested for have asked the protested against to remove a bunch of International Solidarity Movement members! Why? Well, according to the story, the people really dont help at all, just grandstand and stir up trouble, and they are ruining the Arab's way of life!
Arab leaders in Hevron have contacted the city’s Jewish leaders for help in getting rid of self-proclaimed anarchist volunteers who, they complain, are destroying their traditional way of life.
It appears the offspring of the rich American and Europeans are doing what all spoiled rich non-Muslim (and maybe even Muslim rich kids) do.
The local Arabs in the Hevron region whom the activists claim to be helping are now complaining that the American and European students behave in a provocative and offensive manner in Hevron’s public areas.
Several local Arab residents told the Kol Ha’Ir newspaper that the activists have been exposing the local youths to drug use and sexual promiscuity.
So in a very weird way, these juvenile delinquents are actually promoting a greater understanding between Israelis and Arabs! Although that does not appear to be their primary purpose (Israelis are the BAAAADD people).
I hope that the Israelis help out these Arabs! It is another sign of something good happening in the Middle east!
