Every night, dozens of young men in Jerusalem's Pisgat Ze'ev neighborhood take to the streets and go out searching for girls.

But theirs is not a promiscuous search. In fact, the group of some 35 volunteers is looking to prevent such interaction and to stop what neighborhood residents have overwhelmingly complained is a growing problem in Pisgat Ze'ev - Arab men going out with Jewish girls.

What was once a rare occurrence, residents say, has become the norm in this north Jerusalem suburb, which shares a side of the security barrier with the Palestinian village of Anata and the scattered dwellings on the edge of Shuafat refugee camp.

Residents now say that, due to Pisgat Ze'ev's location and increasingly mixed Arab-Jewish population, the phenomenon of mixed dating has grown, with violent outbursts breaking out frequently between Arab and Jewish youth over the matter, and with growing communal anger over what many here feel is simply unacceptable.

"A rare occurrence?" a shopkeeper in the local mall asked sardonically this week when asked about the situation. "My friend, it's not rare at all, this has become the reality. Pisgat Ze'ev has turned into one gigantic whorehouse, please excuse the expression."

"[The young Arab men] come here to the mall and we see it all the time, they take the girls to the bathroom, they laugh with each other about it. And as if that wasn't worse, one of them opened up an actual whorehouse just up the street. There are Jewish girls in there! It's nothing short of a disgrace!"

Enter Eish L'Yahadut (Fire for Judaism), a volunteer group made up of both religious and secular Pisgat Ze'ev residents, who walk the streets at night looking for local girls out with Arab men.

"We're not aggressive, and we don't use violence," said Moshe, a 31-year-old member of the group who spoke to The Jerusalem Post on Thursday.

"Our goal is to be in contact with these girls and try to explain to them the dangers of what they're getting themselves into. In the last 10 years, 60 girls from Pisgat Ze'ev have gone into the [West Bank Arab] villages," he said. "And most of them aren't heard from after that."

Moshe said that his group also maintains contact with the Arab men as well, in an effort to convince them that pursuing such relationships is not in their best interest. "One of the girls we're in contact with, her father is a commander with the Jerusalem Police," Moshe said. "Once the guy she was with heard about that, things changed."

While some girls are receptive to the group's efforts, others are not. "But we keep trying," Moshe said. "These are girls who usually don't know any better, who come from troubled homes, and they're swept up by the guy's charm or nice clothes. We try to show them that these aren't the most important things, and we have women who speak to them as well."

According to Moshe, the group is currently in contact with 17 girls, the majority of whom are in high school. The group has encountered physical confrontations, but, Moshe said, iits work is done within the full confines of the law, and the Arab men they approach are often receptive as well.

However, Arab residents of the neighborhood told the Post that the group has been a problem. "They come out all the time and hassle us," said Imad, who works in the Pisgat Ze'ev mall. "I was out with this girl the other night, and they came up and started talking to us. I don't like it, you know? What do they care who I'm with?"

But for Moshe and his group, the importance of their job lies with the girls they say they are protecting. "Sometimes these guys are abusive to the girls," Moshe said. "While that usually starts after they're married, there was an incident recently where one of these guys was beating the girl up in the middle of the street. We got involved, and she left him, but it's a shame that it has to come to that."

Another major issue for the group are the brothels that have sprung up in the neighborhood. In addition to their nightly "patrols," the group stages protests outside the houses of ill repute in an effort to pressure the owners to shut them down.

"Our mission is not against Arabs," Moshe said. "But it is for the protection of Jewish women, wherever they may be. And with regards to the brothels, the police don't interfere, because they're run by crime families. But if enough residents stand up against them, I believe they will be shut down."

In that vein, Eish L'Yahadut is planning a rally next Thursday in front of the mall, to protest the brothels and what it calls "police inaction" over the matter.

"We want to get the neighborhood involved," Moshe said. "Because it's our neighborhood, and if we don't stand up for it, no one will."

Really not the brightest bunch, how can you move into an Arab neighbourhood and not expect to see mixing...
Comments on that site are racist, probably not as racist as what is to be expected here though.
 
Wow? this is an Israeli paper, the group forcing their views on women is what I'm exposing.

Not Jews. :rolleyes:

Its all about "TAQYIA".

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090609124921AA6xdKa

Taqiyya, or not showing their faith openly by means of pretense, dissimulation, or concealment, is a special type of LYING which is taught and used by Shi'a Muslims, cf.
Sunni Muslims and Taqiyya. "Taqiyya" (or taqiyyah) is related to the terms "taqwa'" and "taqi'" - all have the root meaning of "guarding" something, in this case, the Islamic faith.

And this part they blame on everyone else but themselves.
This practice, along with the practice of Kitman, or concealing their faith from non-Shi'as, were, and are many places today, a method of self-preservation for the Shi'a community. Historically, the Shiites have been in the minority and have been persecuted by Sunni Muslims who considered them heretics. Shi'as are often persecuted today in Pakistan and Afghanistan and Sunni-Shi'a violence is fairly common. Sunnis would often attempt to force Shi'as to curse the House of Ali - believing that no devout Shiite could commit such an act. As a result of this persecution, the idea of taqiyya emerged. In other words, if a Shi'a Muslim's life is in danger, he may lie as long as he holds true to Ali in his heart.

Imagine it the other way around - if an arab girl were to be seen with a jewish boy her brothers would kill her faster than you can blink - honour killing will be the order of the day for arabs.

Could you imagine a ME news agent exposing the truth like this - certain beheading of the editor.

LOL on the article. I know a lot of whites who have the same demented attitude towards mixed couples - it always the other side to blame, never their own.
 
Looks like it is encouraged by the state...
The Israeli government has launched a television and Internet advertising campaign urging Israelis to inform on Jewish friends and relatives abroad who may be in danger of marrying non-Jews.

The advertisements, employing what the Israeli media described as "scare tactics," are designed to stop assimilation through intermarriage among young Diaspora Jews by encouraging their move to Israel.

The campaign, which cost $800,000, was created in response to reports that half of all Jews outside Israel marry non-Jews. It is just one of several initiatives by the Israeli state and private organizations to try to increase the size of Israel's Jewish population.

According to one ad, voiced over by one of the country's leading news anchors, assimilation is "a strategic national threat," warning: "More than 50 percent of Diaspora youth assimilate and are lost to us."

Adam Keller, of Gush Shalom, an Israeli peace group, said this was a reference both to a general fear in Israel that the Jewish people may one day disappear through assimilation and to a more specific concern that, if it is to survive, Israel must recruit more Jews to its "demographic war" against Palestinians.

Ja, I think it is pretty clear that he has an agenda to scrape up the worst he can find on any obscure news source and post it here as if it is some kind of revelation to the world.

his anti-Semitism is pretty obvious to see though.
