Arab terrorists attacked the Jerusalem neighborhood of Maaleh Hazeitim about 3:00 p.m. Friday, targeting Jewish residents with fireworks and rocks.
The fireworks caused a fire in the nearby brush, which spread quickly but was extinguished by the residents and private security guards before the fire department showed up.
Local residents have decided to begin reporting attacks on their homes and transportation as they occur, instead of trying to keep a stiff upper lip as they have for years. Riots in Jerusalem by Arab thugs have reached unbearable proportions in some neighborhoods, as Jewish civilians and residences are singled out for attack, and clashes between rioters and security forces have seen the use of live fire by attackers.
Ten days ago, local terrorists attacked a day care center in further testimony to the ongoing "silent intifada" in the capital.
Three weeks ago, a school bus was attacked with rocks and paint, almost causing it to veer off the road.
