Extremist youth mobs spit on, curse journalists before religious Zionist revelers crowd into Old City's Muslim Quarter; 13 arrested; police disperse left-wing group that came to protect Palestinians

Tens of thousands of ultra-nationalist Israeli youths marched through the Old City of Jerusalem on Thursday with cries of “Death to Arabs” and “May your villages burn” during the nationalist Flag March, while far-right politicians raised the Israeli flag on the Temple Mount and called to destroy the Al-Aqsa Mosque and rebuild the Temple as they marked Jerusalem Day.
Jerusalem Day, which commemorates the reunification of the city under Israeli rule in the 1967 Six Day War, has largely become an event associated with the religious Zionist community. The march, which runs through the Muslim Quarter and ends at the Western Wall, has frequently descended into violence amid anti-Arab chants and racist provocations.

Most Palestinians in the Muslim quarter of the Old City had shuttered their shops and gone home before the march began, but members of far-right radical Jewish groups who had entered scuffled with Palestinian residents still there, with both sides throwing chairs at each other, until separated by police who entered the city that afternoon in force.
“I’ve come to show all the world that this is our city. This is the Holy Land. God gave us this country and this city,” a 19-year-old marcher, Ariel Amichai, said.
Asked what the intended message of the march was to Palestinians in Jerusalem, he replied: “That they must leave. This is our country. And they can’t just be here and try to stab us or kill us.”

A small number of Palestinian-owned shops remained open under the protection of activists from Standing Together, an Israeli-Palestinian grassroots movement that deployed volunteers across the Old City to try to shield residents and businesses from harassment.
“
Our presence is to just protect people from being attacked, places from being vandalised. And we try to de-escalate this day,” said Rula Daoud, the group’s co-director, who noted that the march was becoming more violent every year. She accused Israeli police of failing to intervene to curb the abuses.
“This day, thousands of basically settlers and right-wing fascist young and older people will be roaming the streets chanting very racist things, trying to destroy places owned by Palestinians and just terrorising the whole place,” she said.
