More Accounts of Police Sex Molestation in Amona Police Riot; or Yassamnik: What Do You Tell Your Family??

Were Settler Girls Sexually Assaulted?

Excerpt;

“Disturbing accounts: Following report about settler claims police officers molested girls during outpost evacuation, Ynet receives additional testimonies from educators and rabbis regarding girls complaining of sexual abuse by police.”

Commentary;

The above picture is sickening. Had there been attempts to fight these sadistic ISRAELI police and yassamnikim off, these girls undoubtedly feared more vicious brutalization yet, and that they would have been arrested accused of assaulting a police officer. This is what ISRAELI Shotrim have been reduced to! AN OUTRAGE! MB read more

Israel Cabinet Minutes, We’re Gonna Get Them Settlers!

Excerpts of IsraPundit Commentary;

“So, to summarize, Hamas and terror attacks, that’s not so illegal, building a Jewish house, that’s the HIGHEST CRIME IN ISRAEL. While there, 3,000 police were only able to make 17 arrests but were able to bash over 500 heads. Defensive violence against the security forces may result in 20 years in prison, pre-planned violence by the security forces didn’t really happen, no need to review it. But if it did, just file a complaint (you did stop and write down the badge number’s that weren’t there while you were getting bashed, didn’t you?) and it will be taken care of.” read more

South Africa in Israel?

Received this email today by way of a fellow recipient of a local email list.

“South America is Here”

“I am writing the following several minutes after entering my house, after long hours spent in Sha’arei Tzedek’s Emergency Room. I arrive there, in great urgency, after receiving a phone call from my 16-year-old daughter, who was on her way [to the hospital] in an ambulance after the Amona Pogrom. Thank God, my daughter wasn’t hurt; she was accompanying her friend who had been injured in the course of the pogrom. And again, thank God, her friend, who was hospitalized is also recuperating and will be released shortly, with the help of God. read more
