For Jews, a Wrong Turn into a Palestinian Authority Town Can Be a Death Sentence


(Jerusalem Post) Moshe Phillips - It can be a death sentence to make a wrong turn into a Palestinian Authority town if you're a Jew. Recently, an elderly Jewish man was attacked by Arab rock-throwers and nearly murdered after he took a wrong turn into Kalandiya, just north of Jerusalem. Social media video showed a mob hurling rocks at the car, chasing it down the street. You can see people joining the mob, streaming from all directions, throwing rocks, for block after block. 16 Israelis - four of them American citizens - have been murdered by Arab rock-throwers since the 1980s. Can you imagine the UN condemnations if an Arab driver made a wrong turn into an Israeli Jewish neighborhood, and a mob of Jews spontaneously attempted to stone him to death? Of course, Arab drivers make wrong turns into mostly-Jewish neighborhoods all the time, and nobody tries to harm them.
