Hundreds of Jewish Colonisers Storm Vacated Colony of Homesh in Jenin
JENIN, March 26, 2007, (WAFA)-Hundreds of Jewish colonisers stormed Monday the vacated colony of Homesh areas, south the West Bank city of Jenin, shouting abusive words against Islam and the Prophet Mohammad.
Witnesses told WAFA that dozens of colonisers and their families have just started to enter the vacated colony shouting abusive words of Islam and the Holy Prophet and screaming, "This is our land and will not depart it."
They added that the colonisers, carrying orange banners with the word "State of Israel", and under the protection of the occupation forces closed the area completely and prevented citizens from approaching.
The witnesses affirmed that the colonisers, who were deployed in the mountains near the colony, attacked a shepherd who is twelve -year- old, beaten him up and forced him to leave the area.
