Arabs Call For ‘Third Intifada’ To Murder The Jews At Abu Khder Memorial
Mohammed Abu-Khder
Police prepared in large numbers Thursday for what could be a restive weekend as Arabs in Jerusalem commemorate the one year anniversary of the death of Mohammed Abu Khder. The youth, 16, was kidnapped from eastern Jerusalem on July 2 and burned to death. Three Jews – a 29 year old and two 16 year olds – have been indicted on charges of murdering the youth, in revenge for the kidnapping and murder of three Jewish teenagers by Hamas terrorists.
Arabs were out in force Thursday night in the Shua’fat neighborhood of Jerusalem, where Abu Khder lived. A procession was held from the family’s home to Abu Khder’s grave. While the procession was relatively orderly, several members of the crowd shouted catcalls at police, and said that they demanded “a third intifada.”
Police have been ordered to hold back and interfere only in the event of a major disruption. Airborne cameras are photographing and recording the event in high resolution.
