Baruch
Goldstein, a doctor from Kiriyat Arba on the West Bank, massacred Arabs
praying in the Cave of the Matriarchs in Hebron. His actions sparked widespread
riots, including in Jaffa near Tel Aviv, where this photograph was taken.
I
was beaten up by a demonstrating mob who thought I was a police photographer.
Sitting on my motorbike, I was surrounded by at least 200 demonstrators
some of whom were hitting me and trying to get at my cameras. Luckily
someone in the crowd, an Arab, grabbed me and took me to his house. My
cameras had not been damaged. My glasses had been smashed and my motorbike
scratched. After greatful thanks and a glass of water, I went out to take
more photographs. |
