Residents of the Shomron town of Yakir, between Ra\'anana and Ariel, held an active demonstration today at their nearby junction. They protested against the fact that Arabs continue to throw large rocks at Jewish motorists - such as at Danielle Fein, who was critically wounded earlier this week the night after she became engaged to be married. Arutz-7\'s Kobi Finkler reports that the protestors took over a number of hilltops in the region, and agreed to leave only after the local police commander promised to take action to improve the security situation.
A protest of a different type took place in New York yesterday, where over 150 concerned citizens protested the PLO\'s murderous crimes of the past six months. Some of them even placed pictures of two of the most recent victims, including 10-month-old Shalhevet Pass, on the door of the PLO\'s UN Mission. The protest vigil for the over 70 Israeli victims of the current Palestinian war against Israel was sponsored by the Coalition for Jewish Concerns-Amcha and Americans for a Safe Israel. Participants held up posters with photos and biographies of each of the victims, recited Psalms, and chanted, \"Arafat is a war criminal! Israel wants peace, Arafat wants war!\"
