Palestinian police clash with backers of striking U.N. agency workers

It's too bad that those oil-rich Arabs don't chip in to give the UNRWA workers a raise. Most of the money that is collected by the UN comes from America so the Arabs should step up to the plate and help their brethren. As far as the garbage, the people themselves can start a garbage brigade and gather up the garbage themselves and bring it to the same place that the UNRAW workers do.

RAMALLAH, West Bank – Palestinian police used tear gas and stun grenades Sunday to disperse dozens of protesters at a refugee camp north of Ramallah who had blocked main roads leading to the de facto capital of the Palestinian Authority.

The protesters, residents of the Jalazoun refugee camp, were trying to draw attention to a 40-day-old strike by workers of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, or UNRWA, who are demanding better wages.

Police clashed with the protesters, who pelted them with stones, causing at least 10 minor injuries among the police force, according to emergency ward officials at the Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah, where the officers were treated for cuts and bruises.

What price will you give me on the fact the pro filistan supporters will not complain about the use of tear gas fired at filistans and stun grenades used in such close quarters. If it had been the IDF doing this we would have had whole pages of LIES about the damage done and the people murdered deliberately by the JOOOOOS because they are racist Nazis.
