By Kareem Khadder

Israel is violating its own laws by arresting an increasing number of Palestinian minors in East Jerusalem for stone-throwing, according to a new report by Israeli human rights group B'tselem.

The group says it has documented the arrest of 81 Palestinian minors in the flashpoint East Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan for stone-throwing during a 12-month period, from November 2009 through October 2010. - CNN.com
