US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller pans today’s attack on journalists covering the Jerusalem Day Flag March by dozens of national religious youth participants.

“Attacks of that nature should be prevented when possible and when they can’t be prevented, they should be fully prosecuted. People should be held accountable under the law,” Miller says after being asked about the attacks during a press briefing.
