Police Commissioner Yohanan Danino has ordered an investigation against producers of a YouTube video that compares police special forces to Nazis. The video shows footage taped at a number of right-wing protests, combining the footage with scenes from Nazi Germany showing soldiers beating prisoners.

Resistance to the occupation continues in Ni‘lin and Shuqba [photos] http://palestinesolidarityproject.org/2011/07/10/resistance-to-the-occupation-continues-in-nilin-and-shuqba/

The same afternoon in the neighboring village of Shuqba, around 30 demonstrators and 5 internationals marched to a rock quarry built by settlers on their land.For an hour and a half, participants, including many children, waved flags and informed guards at the quarry that they were on stolen land and that the Palestinians would not stop resisting the occupation.

The guards at the quarry responded by threatening the demonstration with their guns. Villagers also removed a long roll of barbed wire separating the village from the quarry. The demonstration in Shuqba was the fifth in recent weeks. The quarry has occupied village land for five years, and settlers destroyed many olive trees to construct it.
