Trouble in Palestine
Barbara Demick, Knight-Ridder News Service, Jerusalem
Transcribed from the clipping
“Ali Jumhour kissed his wife goodbye at 9 a.m. Saturday and headed off to driving school. A few hours later, the 34-year-old waiter was found on a roadside…” Alongside: “Three Palestinians suspected of having sold land to Jews have been killed in the past month… The Palestinian Authority has accused Israelis in the killings. But the Israelis say that rather than condemning the violence, some Palestinian officials have been encouraging it.”
