(AhlulBayt News Agency) - Six settler rabbis on Oct 5 2010 delivered a box of Qurans to a West Bank mosque which had been torched by vandals, in an unusual peace gesture welcomed by Palestinians.
The delegation, which included prominent left-leaning rabbis Menahem Frohman and Aharon Lichtenstein, brought with them around a dozen copies of the Muslim holy book as part of a solidarity visit to a mosque in Beit Fajjar near Bethlehem.
The visit came a day after unidentified vandals driving a car with Israeli license plates drove into the village and sprayed Hebrew graffiti over the mosque before setting it alight in a pre-dawn attack blamed by witnesses on Jewish settlers.
