From YNet:
December 01, 2013
A Muslim family from east Jerusalem was attacked two weeks ago by three Arab youths near the road of Sur Baher. Only after the group learnt that the family was in fact Palestinian did they leave them alone.
Rashuan Salman, his wife and their baby daughter were making their way from Umm-Tuba to Jerusalem, using the same road used by the family of two-year-old Avigail Ben Zion who was moderately injured after being hit in the head by a rock, when they were attacked."After driving along the road near Sur Baher three Arab youths jumped up on us," Salman told Ynet on Sunday.
"They tried to pull us out of the car and hit us, it seemed they were intent on lynching us. They tried opening the doors and my wife begged them to leave us alone.
She spoke to them in Arabic and only then did they understand that we ourselves are Arabs, and left us alone. I hit the gas and drove away as fast as possible." According to him, the youth clearly mistook them for Jews: "Me and my wife look Jewish, even the police officer who arrived said 'at first sight I was sure you were Jews.'
He told us that these types of things happen all the time." What's that word again when people target Jews for no other reason except that they are Jews? It's on the tip of my tongue... Well, whatever it is, I'm sure it doesn't apply to the attackers here.
