Members of the Argentine Arab community converged on the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires Monday to protest what they called "terrorist methods" used by Israeli security forces against Palestinian protesters.  

About 300 people marched to the embassy demanding a formal condemnation from Argentine of the Israeli behavior, according to police.  

The marchers adopted a statement condemning the United States for "doing nothing to put an end to this tragedy." 

Almost 100 people, mainly Palestinians, have been killed since the beginning of mass protests in the West Bank and Gaza Strip -- BUENOS AIRES (AFP)
