Israeli riot police dump Jewish left-wing "Peace Now" activists off the roof of a building at the controversial new Jewish settlement in the Arab East Jerusalem neighborhood of Ras al-Amoud September 18. One activist was arrested when they tried to occupy the roof. Behind is a satellite dish erected by the settlers. Jewish settlers today said they were close to a compromise with Israel's government which they say will allow a continued Jewish presence to remain in the area, but [Palestinian President Arafat] has said anything short of the settlers' departure was inadequate.
