Two Palestinians Killed at West Bank Anti-Fence Protest

(Jerusalem Post) Etgar Lefkovits - Two Palestinian demonstrators were killed and dozens of others were wounded during a violent anti-security fence protest Thursday in Bidu, near Ramallah. Ten border policemen were also wounded in the clashes, Jerusalem police spokesman Shmuel Ben-Ruby said. Hundreds of rock-throwing Palestinians tried to block construction workers from putting up a new section of the security fence near the Jewish community of Givon and police used tear gas and stun grenades to break up the crowd. Internal Security Minister Tzahi Hanegbi said Thursday, "There is a cynical and well-established attempt by the Palestinians, at the instruction of Arafat, to try and torpedo the construction of the fence."
