===2014-08-03 TEL AVIV: Demonstration against the Gaza massacre ends in inexplicable Israel Police brutality===
This week, Israel Police decided not to permit the conduct of a routine Saturday night vigil against the Gaza massacre. Police ordered to demonstrators to disperse and declared the vigil "illegal gathering", then engaged in brutality, arrested 14 demonsrators.
This morning Israel Police claims that the order to disprese last night was derived from concern for the demonstrators' security, and a standing order against gathering larger than 1,000 persons in open spaces during the current round of hostility.
However, the demonstrators were far from 1,000, and earlier that day there was in the same place public activity for kids with a similar size crowd.

Tel Aviv Police Commander Benzi Sau decided that he is authorized to manage the Freedom of Speech in Tel Aviv. Luckily, he only ordered police to employ violence and arrests.
In the past, the same Benzi Sau ordered police to shoot and kill Israeli-Arab demonstrators. But that treatment is reserved for non Jewish demonstrators in Israel...
