The left-leaning Labor and Meretz parties are asking the attorney general to probe reports of violence against anti-war protesters in Tel Aviv.

Calling for an investigation, Meretz leader Zehava Gal-On said “it’s unacceptable that the police, instead of fulfilling their duty to protect protesters and their right to demonstrate, instead abandons them and defends the rioters.”

The Labor Party also issued a letter on Sunday, calling on the Attorney General, the Israel Police and the State Attorney to probe the incident…

Channel 1 reporter Dudi Nissim, who was broadcasting next to the protest when the fights began, said that the violence was started by the right-wing protesters, who he said seemed to come looking for a fight and were the ones using violence. He said that they chased one person into the nearby “Nehama V’Hetzi” café and beat them inside the establishment.

    Many polls have long proven 3/4 of israeli & Palestinian citizens support for bilateral recognition and peace.

    It’s the old 80/20 rule where the 20% errant minority violently beat their chests pretending to be louder than the vast majority of sane peaceful people. The Israeli war-economy is ruled by oligarchs just like half of our U.S. government spending is via defense spending on 15 agencies, plus the Pentagon’s sole budgeted $700 B annual allowance.

    It may be “unacceptable” for the police to hassle them, but it’s not at all surprising. It wouldn’t surprise me if they ran them over with a tank.

    It’s not exactly like Israel chose to go to war. When you’re under attack you need to defend yourself.
