On the night of July 17, some 1,000 anti-war demonstrators stood in the center of Tel Aviv for hours calling for an end to the bombardment and siege of Gaza. As the evening went on, more and more Israeli nationalists came to taunt them, yelling "Your mothers are whores," "Death to Arabs," and "May a missile kill you now!" Their rage eventually turned to violence as they tried to isolate protesters and beat them. The police intervened and pushed the anti-war protest from the square. At the simultaneous protest in Haifa, ultra-nationalist thugs succeeded in isolating some protesters, and beat them severely.
