A masked Palestinian youth uses a slingshot to hurl stones at Israeli police officers during clashes at the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan, Wednesday, Sept. 22, 2010. Violence erupted after a 32-year-old Palestinian laborer was killed by a private security guard watching over Jewish families in the Silwan neighborhood in east Jerusalem. During the man's funeral, a mob of protesters set tires on fire, smashed the windows of several buses and called for revenge.
