The 16-year-old was participating in a Jerusalem Faction demonstration that had already shut down parts of Route 4 and major roads into the city, creating severe traffic congestion.
Paramedics from Hatzalah and Magen David Adom treated the teen for abdominal, pelvic and leg injuries before transporting him to Schneider Children’s Medical Center in Petah Tikva.
Police launched a search for the driver and are investigating the circumstances of the hit-and-run. Officers continued working to clear roadblocks and urged the public to avoid the area, saying demonstrations cannot endanger lives or block vital traffic routes.
When Jews fight amongst themselves, it much more dangerous than all of the world’s anti Semites together, that was what brought the end of Hashmonoem (remember Chanukah) kingdom
“Play stupid games, win stupid prizes”.
Surprised it never happened till now.
Wow!
When the Kaplanists were blocking roads, commenters here complained that roads were blocked creating danger. They suggested that drivers just plow on through the crowds.
Now commenters here are indignant that someone appears to have done just that.
I guess it all depends on whose ox is gored?

Just to be clear after reading the hateful targeting of Chareidim instead of the criminal driver, if anti-zionism is anti-Semitism then without a doubt anti-chareidism is anti-Semitism.
Which Rav/Rebbe allows for blocking of the roads? If these people are not acting based on any halachic or secular rules why would they expect anyone else to follow rules?
They shouldn’t have been there. Sorry, not much sympathy . . .
Ach…zorios!
I’m just curious, what would you have the driver do? Just sit there and wait until the morons get tired? Yes, I dont think he’s justified to run the guy over, but what would be the real eitza here? For all of you screaming that these bochurim are just peacefully protesting? And for all of you commenting, I’d love to see how you’d react when you are late for a doctors appointment, or to learn with your kids or to be with your family when you’ve just worked 8 hours in the office. Yes I’m sure you’d all just sit and smile and wait for these bochurim to get a life, stop the bittul Torah and get back to what bochurim should be doing not what hooligans should be doing. Grow up and get real.
Oops! Shoulda worn a reflector
All protesters are menaces to society.
These articles do a good service by exposing which Jews enjoy when others suffer, and which ones joyfully run rabbis through the mud. They’re making it too easy for them to decide upstairs who has to go
