Jewish settlers attack British diplomats in Hebron

HEBRON, West Bank (Reuters) - A small group of Jewish settlers attacked a delegation of British diplomats during a visit to the West Bank city of Hebron on Thursday, the British Consulate said.

The consulate in Jerusalem said the diplomats were attacked while touring the area in an armored car. None were injured.

A Palestinian security official in the city said one of the settlers kicked the car after trying to open one of its doors.

Tension often runs high in Hebron, home to 180,000 Palestinians and around 650 Jewish settlers who live in fortified enclaves guarded by Israeli troops.

"the diplomats were attacked while touring the area in an armored car. None were injured."

omg, they kicked an armored car. what a brutal and senseless attack.

I can't believe you treat the people there like gorillas in a zoo and view them behind bars and find out they are upset with you. amazing.

I'm surprised that the phrase "and ate their children" wasn't in the headline.

I'm just betting that the fact they were in the armoured car in the first place had absolutely NOTHING to do with their fear of Jews.

I wonder what other groups in the area provide a threat to busy-body Euro-weenies?

thats why ap poll states 79 percent of educated americans do not support israel....obama 08...jews flushed down the toilet

JOOOOOOOSSS!!!!

I'm neither Jewish or a settler or Israeli and when I walk through Hebron I encountered nothing but asshole TIPH workers (from places like Norway and crap). I took lots of pictures of them frowning at me and pretending to be busy working (in their cars or the head of the group with binoculars).

One of them actually asked me to email him the photo.. the chutspa!

TIPH's mere presence causes issues.. its like Gorillas In the Mist. You gotta learn how to observe yet not interfere and treat people with dignity.

Lmfao, is that the best anti-Semites can come up with? Seriously, I see the dumbest fake polls. They all say 79 PERCENT OF AMERICANS DON'T SUPPORT ISRAEL! ITS TRUE! GOOGLE IT! I honestly saw a poll that looked like this:

Which country is the most dangerous country in the middle east?

Israel 80%
United States 10%
Rome 5%
Other 5%

I didn't realize the US and rome were in the middle east.

God, can't you stupid anti-Semites come up with something more creative? The muslims are leaving you in the dust with propaganda.

If news like that make you happy, then you can get the more serious stuff (and be even happier) right here: www.thereligionofpeace.com .

Maybe the settlers boots were lined with metal spikes that made holes in the steel armor and accidentally stabbed the british?(sarcasm)

[Sam]

These Europeans are lucky they weren't shot by these Israeli terrorists. Others have been beaten or murdered by them. Palestinians are routinely murdered by Israeli terrorists. No surprise to see all the anti-Muslim bigots here.

[Ben There]

The "settlers" are getting desperate.
That happens when people overplay their hand.
