JERUSALEM — Israeli authorities have confirmed they have arrested a number of Jewish suspects in the death of a Palestinian teenager whose death set off violent protests.

Jerusalem police are confirming that they believe that Jews perpetrated the murder of 16-year old ‘Palestinian’ Mohammed al-Khadr. No, they weren’t ‘settlers’ as the ‘Palestinians’ hoped. No, they weren’t Haredim gone off track as the rumors circulating over the weekend were saying. They were apparently from La Familia, a racist group that roots for the Beitar Jerusalem soccer team. This is from the second link.
Police have arrested six suspects in the murder of 16-year-old Arab teen Mohammed Abu-Khder.
The suspects, among them several minors, are believed to be Jewish, appearing to back suggestions earlier today that police had made significant headway in their investigation, and that they were almost certain the motive was “nationalistic”.
“Apparently the people arrested in relation to the case belong to an extremist Jewish group,” an official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.
“We have begun to put together the pieces of the puzzle, and 70-80% of the background information indicates [the crime is] nationalistic,” a police source claiming to be part of the central investigation told Walla News.
“But research has failed to understand what happened during critical moments,” he added, referring to the two-hour window between the boy’s alleged abduction in Shuafat and his body being found in the Jerusalem Forest.
Almost immediately prior to the arrests, a police source told Channel 2 that arrests in the case were “imminent” and could be carried out later in the day.
Weren’t there just three Israeli boys killed a week or two ago? And one of them was also an American citizen? I wonder when it will be discovered that the Palestinians attacked their own so they can glory in victim status rather then have to answer for murdering Jews?
I wonder if any (or all) of these suspects are from the Russian immigrant community.
This is just a speculation, without any specific evidence, but I have followed stories about their activities, noting many crimes of the worst sort.
