My Way News - Israel: Protests show fight over state's existence
My Way News reports: "For the second time in a month, hundreds of unarmed protesters from Syria, many of them the descendants of Palestinian refugees from 1948, surged toward the frontier with the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights on Sunday and tried to burst through the border. Israeli forces kept the crowd from making it through, but 23 protesters were killed, according to Syrian officials [...] These repeated attempts to challenge Israel's borders have played into widespread Israeli fears that the Palestinians do not seek a state only in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem - lands captured in the 1967 Mideast war - but ultimately want to take over all of present-day Israel as well."

Comment: Well, you have to admit, they don't exactly act like people who want peace. All of their actions undercut any claim to peaceful intentions. It's nice to see the media waking up to this fact.
