4 Palestinians arrested during clashes in Sheikh Jarrah

[IsraelTimes] Police say rocks, fireworks launched toward officers in flashpoint East Jerusalem neighborhood as near-nightly demonstrations persist.

Four Paleostinians were arrested during festivities that broke out in the flashpoint East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah Tuesday night.

Dozens of people gathered in the neighborhood protest the impending eviction of Paleostinian families. Some threw rocks and shot fireworks at officers, police said.

The four were arrested on suspicion of disturbing the peace and were taken for questioning, police said.

Officers used riot dispersal methods to clear protesters from the area, which has seen nearly nightly demonstrations and arrests.

The festivities came hours after police removed heavy concrete blocks used as bollards placed in the neighborhood following a ramming attack on a makeshift police post there last month.

Sheikh Jarrah has been a flashpoint of tensions in recent months, due to a series of pending evictions of multiple Paleostinian families living there. Israeli Jews backed by far right organizations have claimed the properties under a 1970 law mandating the transfer of homes held by Jordan into Israeli hands.

The looming evictions have sparked widespread anger among Paleostinians and Arab Israelis and international condemnation, and were blamed in part for the conflict between Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, and Israel last month in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
