Abstract

B'Tselem's twenty-nine-page report, titled “Caution: Children Ahead” (subtitled “The Illegal Behavior of the Police toward Minors in Silwan Suspected of Stone Throwing”) compares the actual practices of the Jerusalem police in arresting and dealing with Palestinian minors to the rights of minors under Israeli (and international) law. In the course of describing the growing incidence of stone throwing and the official response, the report highlights the unfolding drama of the Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan, from the 1990s the scene of increasing tensions and violence as the Palestinian residents face encroachment and displacement. The full text report is available online at www.btselem.org.
