Police allowed the protests then arrested the people? And this is the type of GOVT that is so adored by our Left.
I would assume the government started the protests, but then called the organizers back. They then arrested a few token protesters who didn't get the word and will be treated like the Palestinian government treated anti-israel terrorists that it arrested.
I think it's that whole "stroke of the pen, law of the land" appeal that they really adore.
