A Berkeley rally against terrorism that featured a bombed Israeli bus turned briefly violent Sunday when angry counter demonstrators carrying Palestinian flags marched into the mostly pro-Israel crowd.
Riot police quickly separated combatants, some of whom came to blows, during the afternoon event organized by the Israeli Action Committee of the East Bay. Police cited one man on a charge of misdemeanor battery.

They cover their faces and disrupt the Jews and then say it's "for the children".
It's always for the children isn't it? Hypocrites all!
....and the world keeps getting madder by the minute....
gotta love the antics of representatives of the Party of Tolerance and apologists for the Religion of Peace
The question that always troubles me, why do they find a need to cover their face? Living a double life? Afraid of showing their faces in public because they are not men/women enough? Real tough people I tell ya.
Truly disgusting. These people should have been jailed as terrorists.
Excuse the language but they cover their faces because they are goddam cowards!
Shouldn't we make something good out of this? I mean, can't we have a "win/win" situation? They want to become martyrs, and I'm sure the Berkeley police need some range time. Seems to me both could be accomplished with a minimum of effort. Throw in a few slaughtered pigs, make a nice mass grave, and call it a party!
There is a fundamental question that all Americans have to ask themselves these days: How far will we let things go before we fight back?
I draw the line at Pali-symps covered in sheets begging to be martyred.
""Two, four, six, eight, we are martyrs, we can't wait,'' chanted the group, most of whom wore kaffiyehs"
It seems to me that these people have just made a pretty clear terrorist threat. Why weren't they arrested?
Just start shooting them, then claim you thought America was under attack by Islamic fundamentalists and you had not heard it on the news yet.
Theose peace loving Jew haters are showing their true colors. Too bad the MSM refuses to carry it.

UC Berkeley's conflicts mirror Mideast's pain Tension growing between Jewish, Palestinian students
Jewish students coming out of worship services have been pelted with eggs and subjected to epithets, Oleon said. Last week someone threw a cinder block through the front windows and wrote "F-- Jews" in black marker on the Jewish Hillel cultural center's recycling bins. Some Jewish students believe that Berkeley professors, even those who are Jewish, have unfairly come down hard on Israel in lectures.

HATEFEST BY THE BAY May 14, 2002 -- THE San Francisco Bay area is the new France - and that's not a compliment.

It would seem that there is a precedent for a certain type of behavior in the bay area....
I watched a Berkeley police officer cross the street and invite the Palestinians into the rally. That is definitely how it appeared to me. The police helped them across the street and then stood by and watched as the crazed bunch invaded the anti terror group. When I asked them why they allowed that, the officer just gave me a stony look and ignored me. The cops facilitated the problems and I called to complain. I'm sure that will help...
I guess they hate Jews in Bersekeley. And the haters include the leftwing nutcase suicidal Jews who stood side by side with the enemy.
The local news didn't use the term "anti-terror" rally, which is how it was billed. That would put them in the awkward position of making the case that the counter demonstraters are pro-terror. We can't have that.
