fields and paved roads, but also a Star of David measuring 60m in diameter carved into the
soil likely by IDF vehicles. It is important to note that this pattern was created during the
first week of the IDF ground incursion into Gaza, sometime between 3-10 January 2009.
Based on this analysis, it is probable that building damage within this area of Rafah
Governorate were likely caused by a combination of IAF air strikes and IDF ground fire. _________________ A la guerre comme a la guerre èëè âòîðàÿ ðåäàêöèÿ Çàáóãîðíîâà

Riots in Jaffa as ultra-Orthodox Jews protest graves 'desecration'
Five police officers, ten demonstrators lightly hurt in protest violence after rabbi leads mass prayers to curse developers of luxury housing project.

Hundreds of ultra-Orthodox Jews rioted in Jaffa on Wednesday over building work they say is desecrating Jewish graves.
Police and reinforcements from the Border Guard deployed heavily to contain protesters and at least five police officers hurt by stones thrown by rioters, who also torched rubbish bins, Israel Radio reported. Ten demonstrators were lightly hurt and fifteen were arrested.
Rabbi Tuvia Weiss, leader of the Edah HaChareidis, an extremist Jewish sect that rejects the authority of the State of Israel, led mass prayers, including curses directed at the developers of a hotel in the Andromeda luxury housing development near the seafront in central Jaffa.
"The Rabbi put a curse on the health, body and the livelihood of anyone talking part in this project and desecrating the memory of the dead," one protester said.
Demonstrators called police "Nazis" and "murderers", while one black officer suffered racist taunts.
Last month Haredi Jews staged demonstrated at an Ashkelon hospital over building on ancient graves - which archaeologists later said were Byzantine, not Jewish as protesters claimed.
Jerusalem has also witnessed a series of disturbances in the past year over the municpality's plans to open a car park on Saturdays, the Jewish sabbath. _________________ A la guerre comme a la guerre èëè âòîðàÿ ðåäàêöèÿ Çàáóãîðíîâà
