who were the snipers in Yafo?

arabs and pro pals in this section insists that israel was to attack first in 1948. so i wonder, of what origin were the snipers in Yaffo who shot at the residents of Tel-Aviv in 1947?

i always thought they were arabs, since the snipers used mosques as a position. (for example Hassan Beck mosque).

    Well, your assumption based on your data would be a good one. Against the Israelis, they typically were of Arab descent.

    Isn't it interesting how Christians and Jews respect the "sanctity" of houses of worship of all religions, while Muslims use the temples of Jews for dung houses and the tombstones from cemeteries for their outhouses, and Muslims use churches as cesspools, and Muslims use mosques as arsenals for storing munitions and as military installations from which to carry out attacks against Christians and Jews?

    Wonder why that is?

    And why Muslims get to claim Islam is a "religion of peace"?

    Things that make you go, "hmmmmm?".
