Ultra-Orthodox Jews protest Jerusalem gay march plan

Three policemen were hurt and five protesters arrested in what Israeli media said was one of the most violent demonstrations in the city in recent times.
Protesters wore torn burlap sacks, resembling those worn by the bereaved of their community, and held signs saying "Jerusalem won't be Sodom and Gomorrah," referring to towns the Bible says were destroyed by God because of their residents' sinful ways.
