59. That's odd.

Sunday

The man arrested at the end appears to have an Israeli accent. I could be wrong. But he also yells to someone "take off your mask". He says he didn't spit at anybody.

This is how it goes. Provocateurs infiltrate the protest, spit or goad, harass etc and usually are unsuccesful. But sometimes they get a response, as seems the case here. But the cops held the protesters back.

Of course what you never see in these videos posted by pro-Israel sites - due to clever editing - is the provocation that preceded the response. As seems the case here.
