Hebron Arabs attempted to lynch five Jewish tourists from the U.S. who entered the wrong part of town in Hebron on Thursday.
The tourists, described as hareidi-religious men, entered the Jabel Johar neighborhood in the Palestinian Authority-controlled section of ancient Biblical city by mistake.
There, they were swiftly attacked by a mob of Arabs who hurled firebombs (Molotov cocktails) and rocks at them, according to security personnel.
A local Arab quickly took them into his home to wait for rescue by Israeli soldiers.
Medics from the Israel Hatzoloh emergency service of Judea and Samaria who responded to the scene reported that one of the tourists was bleeding from the face. At least two were injured in the attempted lynch and were taken by soldiers to receive medical attention. Subsequently both were evacuated to a hospital where they are listed in fair to good condition.
Firebombs hurled at their car ignited the vehicle. The flames quickly incinerated the car, according to the local ZAKA emergency response service from Kiryat Arba / Hebron.
An unnamed civilian security official who arrived on the scene spoke with Tazpit News Agency. “Strictly speaking and in order of arrival, civilian security services arrived first on the scene and after that, the IDF. Riot police entered only after civilian personnel were on site, both those on shift and those on call, and many army forces who quickly asserted control over the situation,” he said.
“Only after that did riot police arrive to rescue the Jewish tourists from the Arab home, and [then] took them to Kiryat Arba to receive medical treatment.”

Well, there is one (1) good arab.
Not all Arabs are Muslim.
I applaud that Arab for having the courage to stand up for what’s right.
For his safety though, he may have to depart that neighborhood immediately. It’s only a matter of time before the Islamo-thugs come for him.
Very true.
He was probably Christian.
The problem isn't the tourists. Thanks SJackson.
The moozlum goons probably already chopped him and his family into bloody bits.
I hope they rescued the Arab too. His “neighbors” are likely to lynch him.
To be fair, the same thing would happen if a Christian or Muslim accidentally wandered into the ultra-Orthodox section of Jerusalem, especially on the Sabbath. It’s part of the extreme territorial-ism that is part of life there. The only ones that don’t stick up for themselves to this extreme are the Christians, which is why they’re fast disappearing in the Holy Land.
The others will probably kill him...
“Well, there is one (1) good arab.”
There was at least one (1) good arab. He’s dead by now. Events such as these tend to serve very well as a filter. Anyone standing up for the victim of the arab rage gets dealt with, usually in a much harsher manner than the actual victim(s).
Now who will rescue the lone, decent Arab? They all know where he lives.
