Such a heavily edited video. First time it looks like the police are ordering him away from the pro-Israeli group and move into the pro-Palestinian group. Standard practice to keep the peace. Very telling that this jerk was wearing a Che' communist shirt under his terrorist bandana. At the time the police grab him, it looks like he was standing up on something like a trash can or concrete part of a post. The video conveniently doesn't show what he was doing prior to the police grabbing him. Everything after that is standard resisting arrest procedure. Not torture or excessive force used on the communist idiot.

If you pretend to be interested in the truth, the least you could do is feign interest in what happened before he was grabbed from his pedestal.

He reminds me of the "don't tase me bro!" kid from the Kerry rally a few years ago.

When there are opposing protest groups, it's standard police practice to keep members of the two groups separated. It's also standard practice to arrest those individuals who refuse to comply with police orders regarding the protest. Now, combine a refusal to comply with police orders along with a pro-Palestinian views, unusual behavior, AND being in a nation that has been the victim of suicide bombers then you SHOULD understand why they arrested him. Wish his video partner hadn't edited the video cutting out his actions and behavior that lead to his arrest.

Ahh! US conservatives......so concerned about "big government" and "freedom"...

Just look how they defend the police and curbs on free speech when it's "their side" involved in suppression.

Touching.

Why do you waste your time criticizing Israel and the US for supposed curbs on free speech, instead of criticizing countries such as Saudi, Syria, and Iran for silencing free speech altogether and throwing journalists in jail?

Well in the case of the USA I think comparing our real freedoms to that of an Arab dictatorship is pathetic. We're better than that.

I know Israeli apologists do this con job to defend their brutality.

"See? How nice we are compared to the Taliban? Now give us our Billions please and shut up, lest you be accused of hating Jews."...lol

So the IDF murdered 320 Palestinian kids in December of 07? So we routinely brutalize Palestinians?

Now can we have are Billions in US taxpayer revenue?....and don't you dare criticize us!
