Israeli Arab assaulted for dating Jewish girl in Kiryat Yam
<snip>

"An Israeli Arab man from the Arab village of Tamra was attacked and critically injured early Saturday morning, after going out with a Jewish girl from Kiryat Yam.

The man and his brother escorted the girl back home, after which they encountered a group of young men, who according to the brother were immigrants from the Caucasus region. The group allegedly attacked them with sticks and stones. The man suffered a severe blow to his skull from a large stone that was thrown at him with force.

The assault took place on Zalman Shazar Street in Kiryat Yam, at around 3:30 in the morning. The police are classifying the event as aggravated assault and not a street fight, since it appears that the two men were attacked without provocation.

According to a police source, it was possible that the fact that the Jewish girl chose to go out with an Arab man sparked the racist and violent attack."

1. How sad.
These stories, wherever they're from, always break my heart. The potential for love and understanding smashed, engendering only more distrust and hatred.
