Disabled Israeli protesters took to the streets of Jerusalem on Sunday morning 8 Kislev as they continue protesting, demanding minimum wage government assistance.
Protests have been going on for weeks, in different cities, as member of the disabled community insist their monthly government assistance does not even amount to minimum wage and it does not enable them to maintain a minimum dignified standard of living.
In the accompanying videos we see protesters blocking the Jerusalem light rail, buses and regular vehicles.

Where is the police presence? Are they going to knock them down to the ground, too, and handcuff them before hauling them down to the police station?
Don’t see the the wild riot police??????????????
Where are the water cannon with the skunk water? Oh, sorry I forgot, that is only used to disperse haredim and arabs.
Maybe the Peleg protesters should go out to the same streets at the same time as the disabled. Then we will see what the riot police do!
Are the commentators here actually comparing this small, peaceful demonstration with the recurring violent rioting of the Peleg?
