Journalist found guilty of throwing rocks, interfering with security forces
On October 24, 2010, there as a demonstration of 'Palestinians,' 'internationals' and Israelis in Nebi Saleh in Samaria. One of the policemen saw Dana and someone named Yuval Oron throwing stones at the security forces. The two were arrested half an hour later for activity designed to prevent the police from fulfilling their legal duties, for participating in an illegal demonstration in a manner that disturbed the peace and instilled fear in the public.
Dana claimed that he had not thrown stones and that he was in the area due to his occupation as a 'journalist.' He claimed that he arrived fifteen minutes before he was arrested from Naalin, where he had reported on his Twitter account. Therefore, he claimed that he could not have been throwing stones half an hour before he was arrested.
Dana tried to get himself released by claiming that he was a journalist.
The judge did not accept his story and believed the police instead. The judge cited a text message from anarchist Jonathan Pollack to Dana that placed both of them in Nebi Salah when the stones were thrown. She also rejected Dana's claim that he was acting as a journalist, citing the fact that there was no article or recording of Dana engaged in journalism that day.
Heh.
