Jerusalem clash turns deadly

A Palestinian has been killed after a Jewish settlement guard opened fire at a group of men in an Arab neighborhood of East Jerusalem.

The incident occurred after clashes broke out between Jewish settlers and a number of local Palestinians in the Silwan neighborhood, Al Jazeera's Dan Nolan reported from Jerusalem.

Israeli policemen fired rubber-coated bullets and teargas at rock-throwing Palestinian protesters after the shooting, leaving several Palestinians wounded.

more violence due to the settlements.
I thought these settlements were halted
due to Obama and Netanyahu's last
visit. Did I miss something???
Has Israel gone back on their word???

Dont know if this is a new settlement or one of the older ones..

While i vehemently dissagree with the current treatment of the
Palestinians its become quite obvious they should have just wiped
them out in the first place, problem solved. This is what happens
when you go about a job half hearted!

From your link and all that needs to be said...

The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, to be illegal.
