An Open Letter to Richard Gere - Ben-Dror Yemini (Ynet News) The actor Richard Gere recently visited Hebron, where he said that for the local Palestinians, "it's exactly what the Old South was in America. Blacks knew where they could go....It was well understood. You didn't cross over if you didn't want to get your head beat in, or you get lynched."
- As part of the Wye Memorandum signed in 1998 between then-Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Yasser Arafat, Jews - and only Jews - are barred from 97% of Hebron. Restrictions on the Palestinians apply primarily to one street, al-Shuhada, which connects two Jewish neighborhoods.
