I think this bunch of pro-Israeli protesters have finally found a way to get the press to take them seriously:
Israeli protesters hold toy guns and wear Kaffiyehs, traditional Muslim headdress, during a demonstration against the release of Palestinian prisoners, in Jerusalem September 25, 2007. Israel will release 87 Palestinian prisoners on Monday, a Prisons Authority spokesman said, a move aimed at bolstering President Mahmoud Abbas ahead of a U.S.-sponsored conference on Palestinian statehood.

Word has it that their competitors are somewhat unhappy with this new situation:
"Yes, we decry this abuse of our distinguished status by the Zionist pigs. Oh, and DEATH TO AMERICA!"

Feel free to peruse my Thug Conferences category for more examples of this phenomenon. And while you're doing so, try to imagine the press taking this group as seriously as they take these terrorist thugs.

Question is, why doesn't Israel take advantage of this target rich events? Or may be I'm wrong in thinking the location is open and known?
