"The Jewish answer to the pro-Palestinian Gaza flotillas: An aid flotilla, docked at Pier 59 at Chelsea Piers in New York City, to the Jews of Hevron.
The Hebron Fund, which runs an annual festive dinner for the Jewish Community of Hevron, continues its 'out of the box' dinner planning by holding this year’s event not in a ballroom, but on a ship cruising around the island of Manhattan.
'We are happy about all forms of expansion of Jewish life in what is called the West Bank,' says the Fund’s Executive Director, Yossi Baumol, 'and we condemn all the anti-Semitic attempts to block them. After much of the world absurdly supported the right of terrorists to send a ship to break Israel’s blockade on Hamas-run Gaza, we have decided to send our own flotilla, which will support peace and life.'"

(NEWS) Planner Of Quadruple Murder Of Jews: Hevron Resident, 34
"The most wanted fugitive being sought by the IDF, and presumably also by the Palestinian Authority, is Nashath al Karmi, a 34 year old Hamas terrorist from Hevron.

He spent three years in jail for terror activity and was re-arrested a short time after his release. He was then placed under administrative detention for another three months."
