The proxy Jihad unrest over housing in East Jerusalem we touched on briefly last summer shows no signs of letting up. As the report below from today’s Jerusalem Post shows, tensions are still high; and riots and fighting are almost daily occurrences.

But what you probably don’t know is who’s pulling the strings. And, as the recent (and unsurprisingly completely slanted) video from the BBC’s Panorama programme above illustrates, it’s extremely unlikely you’d get to find out if you relied on the mainstream media:

The Shuafat refugee camp was the scene of renewed rioting on Tuesday, a day after clashes between young Palestinian residents and security forces in the sprawling east Jerusalem neighbourhood left four police officers and a border policeman lightly injured.

No injuries were reported by police on Tuesday afternoon. However, nine Palestinians were arrested for throwing rocks at security forces during the renewed clashes, bringing the total number of arrests in Shuafat over the past two days to 34.

The disturbances began on Monday afternoon when security forces entered the area to escort a group of municipality workers, including tax inspectors who were carrying out routine checks on businesses in the area.

Municipal workers routinely ask for police accompaniment when working in Palestinian neighbourhoods.

On Monday, they were met by groups of young Palestinian residents who began hurling rocks at them. The violence lasted into the night, and began again on Tuesday afternoon when local schools let out.

Of the officers wounded on Monday, one border policeman was taken to Hadassah Hospital with minor wounds, and the four other policemen were treated on the scene.

Security forces used rubber bullets and pepper spray to disperse the rioters, and on Tuesday, municipality workers had deployed inside of Shuafat to begin repairing some of the damage caused during the disturbances.

Meanwhile on Tuesday, a group of MKs from the Knesset’s Interior Committee toured the east Jerusalem neighbourhood of Sheikh Jarrah, where weekly protests over the eviction of Arab families from homes in the neighbourhood have continued to grow in size.

MK Michael Ben-Ari (National Union) told reporters during the tour that such protests were “a challenge to the state’s sovereignty over parts of Jerusalem,” and that the police presence in the neighbourhood should be beefed up.

“The time has come for quiet to be restored to the streets of this neighbourhood,” Ben-Ari said. “We have to take the necessary steps to ensure that residents do not suffer, and that anti-Semitic elements from Europe that pay for these activities are stopped totally.”

Ben-Ari’s Knesset aide, Itamar Ben-Gvir, told The Jerusalem Post that he was planning on asking for the establishment of a permanent police presence in the area, as many of the incidents that occur between Arabs and Jews in Sheikh Jarrah take place while police are away from the area, and often conclude before they are able to respond.

Former MK Benny Elon, who also took part in the tour, told the Post that he expected Internal Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch to weigh in on the matter, and increase the police presence in the neighbourhood.

“We’re concerned with keeping the tomb [of Shimon Hatzaddik, which is located in the neighbourhood and frequented by thousands of visitors every month] safe and keeping the residents safe as well,” Elon said.

While the MKs’ visit did not spur on any violence, as past, similar tours have, Arab residents did greet the tour group to some heated words.

“You are thieves!” a group of women shouted at the MKs. “You are stealing houses that belong to the Palestinian people!”

While members of the Knesset entourage began responding in turn to the women, members of the police force accompanying the tour ensured that the situation did not escalate.

To examine the situation at at face value (and certainly after watching the BBCs shamefully-biased Panorama coverage - according to them, the history of Jerusalem appears to begin in 1948) –  you would be forgiven for thinking that the situation is clear cut.  Those evil Israelis are committing  some kind of ‘religious cleansing’ operation – turfing out innocent Palestinian Arabs and stuffing the affected districts with Jews. It’s obvious – isn’t it?

A closer look, however, reveals other forces at work – agitating behind the scenes to foment unrest and violence; and to implicate the Israelis.

Far left organisations such as the Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI) are stirring up opposition – Hagai El-Ada, director of ACRI was arrested after he was found among around 150 people rioting outside a recently-built Jewish home. But who’s behind this organisation? Who funds it?

Well, if you live in the EU, you might be a little startled to discover that.. you do. Click here to see the proof. This EU document reveals that the unelected mandarins are indirectly funding the intifada on your behalf, with millions of Euros in donations to ‘human rights and democracy groups’ that are also being made in your name.

They didn’t mention this in the Lisbon Treaty.

Surprised? There’s more. Take a look at the picture below – these women were released from custody this week after being arrested for overstaying their visas and being involved in violent anti-Israel protests in East Jerusalem. Do they look particularly Middle Eastern to you? No? That’s because they’re not.

Two ISM members - an Australian and a Spaniard - were released from custody this week after their involvement in 'violent protest'

In fact the women pictured are from Spain and Australia and are activists for an organisation called the ‘International Solidarity Movement’ – a terrorist-connected leftist front group, which lures students to ‘Palestine’ to agitate against Israeli interests.

Idealistic, wide-eyed Western teenagers are placed into often violent conflict zones to make propaganda for ISM paymasters – and as in the case of Briton Tom Hurndall and American Rachel Corrie, the consequences can prove deadly.

"Hey, let's play terrorists!" - ISM members play with guns while on a visit to a West Bank prison (really - you couldn't make this stuff up if you tried!) while a member of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade looks on

Not that that bothers the ISM too much, who continue their operations today. Neither does it appear to bother university administrators – they also remain active and high-profile on just about every university campus in the West.

So the next time you see TV images of protests and riots in Israel – we hope you’ll take pause and ask yourselves the questions the mainstream media almost never asks of itself:

Who stands to gain? Who’s behind it? Who’s funding it?

Share your thoughts with others – and encourage them to ask the same questions.
