Beating in Jerusalem ends gay Palestinian Americans' plans
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | 11/11/6 | Matthew Kalman

One man in group allegedly attacked by angry Muslims -

Jerusalem -- A group of gay Palestinian Americans canceled a planned pride march in East Jerusalem on Friday after one of them was beaten unconscious by a local man who said he was from the Waqf Muslim religious authority.

The beating incident occurred on the same day an Israeli gay pride rally went ahead as scheduled, though without a planned march through city streets. The march had been called off after threats by religious and right-wing opponents to mount huge counterdemonstrations. Only minor violence marred the event.

East Jerusalem was close to total lockdown Friday -- a combination of a three-day general strike called in mourning for the deaths in the Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanoun on Wednesday, and the resulting Israeli security alert to prevent retaliatory suicide attacks.

Israeli security officials said they had more than 80 specific intelligence warnings of planned terror attacks against Israeli targets and raised the alert level to Daled or "D," the highest. Israeli police clamped a total closure on the West Bank, preventing all Palestinians from entering Israel except those living in East Jerusalem.

In the East Jerusalem beating, two men -- one wielding a knife -- came looking for the group of gay Palestinian Americans who were staying at the Faisal Hostel near the Damascus Gate of the Old City. One of the assailants identified himself as being from the Waqf, the clerical trust that administers Muslim religious sites in the city.

"I'm pretty terrified right now," said Daoud, an MBA student from Detroit who declined to give his full name. "We left the hostel immediately, but when my friend went back....They asked if he was with 'the homos' and then started beating him."

From the people who stridently proclaim that it is a Religion of Peace.

Looks like Dufus pounded the Raghead's fist with his face.

I don't know what these goobers were thinking. Don't they know what the Muslim attitude is toward 'out' homosexuals? Were they thinking that if they went there with 'peaceful intentions' that they'd be welcomed with open arms? Guess they got a sobering lesson from the "School of Hard Knocks", in more ways than one.

Just convinces me even more that homosexuals suffer from narcissim more than anything. They are fixated on themselves, so they only want to have sexual relationships with someone who is like themselves.

They were thinking the enemy of their enemy is their friend.

I wonder if they learned the lesson, or not? I'm thinking NOT.

In a related thread, Elton John wants religion banned completely -- because he believes it promotes hatred of gays.

I hope he's not planning a tour through the Muslim countries...

What is not mentioned, of course, is that the militant Homosexuals were not happy with their rally in the stadium and tried to stage a march without a city permit. He was not arrested for his views, his tshirt or his sexual preferences, he was arrested for breaking the law.

Stupid idiot, the Mohammadians would love to have his head on a platter, police had to risk their lives to save these fools from their stupidity.

This aint California, the neighbors here are not very friendly, they have an explosive temper.

Gee... so this means Palestinians are just as revolted by these freaks as much as many of us in the U.S. - LOL. Who would have thought we in the U.S. had so much in common with the Palestinians! :)... Now if the Arabs just stopped cutting people's heads... I might pay more attention to their grievances...

And as per the usual, all homosexuals can think about is marching in an abomination parade. Pretty sick when you think about it. Not only are they not deterred by AIDS or a multitude of other medical crisis's that can attack them, they are so intent on parading around the streets, it's clear their sexual perversion and parading it for all to see, even trumps their need to be safe......alive. Very sick.
