Jews defy Arab rioters, make mass pilgrimage to Joseph's Tomb

Muslim rioters attacked a group of dozens of Jewish worshipers at the tomb of the Biblical Jewish patriarch Joseph in Shechem, during a pilgrimage to the site.

Israeli Border Police forces and IDF Kfir Brigade soldiers accompanied 20 busloads of Jewish worshipers to the holy site last night. Under the Oslo Accords and other agreements with the PA Israeli Jews should be granted free access to all Jewish religious sites under PA control; in practice however, they are only able to do so under heavy armed guard as PA security forces make no effort to stop local Arab Muslims from attacking them.

During last night's pilgrimage, Arab rioters hurled rocks and firebombs at the Israeli convoy, and at worshipers as the entered the tomb. Security forces however dispersed the rioters, and no Israelis were injured.

If one of those rock throwers beam another on the head, an Israeli Jewish doctor will still tend to the injury.

Don’t hold your breath waiting for the western MSM to be this honest.

More violence from the Religion of Peace.

Is anyone surprised?

Hurrah for Israel! Scattered and returned.

Israel's secular establishment (and this includes the "right wing") don't give a fig. They just want what Rabbi Kahana' (zt"l; Hy"d) called "a Hebrew-speaking Portugal." 'Eretz Yisra'el was never anything to them but a purely secular refuge from persecution, and certainly not the sacristy of the world set aside for `Avodat HaQodesh.

And yes, this very much includes Bibi. Otherwise he would expel every hostile non-Jew from within the Halakhic borders of the Land and tell the rest of the world where to go.
