"The police blocked some 150 Peace Now activists from entering Hebron Thursday afternoon. The activists wanted to protest in Hebron against the residents of the Jewish neighborhood following the 'cursing settler' incident that was revealed by Ynet .
The protestors clashed with the police, and called out: "The unruly Right is a danger to Israel."
They also booed the police and defense minister, calling, "Defense minister, be ashamed of yourself. How many settlers have you arrested until today?" and "We have a police force of chickens. Why haven't you arrested Yifat Elkobi?"
The police arrested the activists on their way to Hebron. The police officers tore up some of their signs.
Ruti Tirosh, an activist in the movement for close to 40 years, said, "This isn't a neighborly spat. This is a political attempt to expel the Palestinians from their land. The entire people of Israel pay with their lives and health for what is happening here in Hebron."
"We planned on visiting the family that was insulted, to apologize, and to say that not everyone is like Yifat Elkobi. Is this a Jew? I ask myself. What appears in the video clip is only the tip of the iceberg, and we know that this is the daily reality," she stated."
