Israeli-Palestinian violence: US expresses concern

There is a problem happening between the Palestinians and the Israeli that has caught the attention of US Secretary of State, John Kerry. 

The problem that started this surge of violence between the Israelis and Palestinians is about access to a site in East Jerusalem that is sacred to both Jews and Muslims. 

Kerry called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmound Abbas.  Both of these men are blaming each other for the rise in violence.

At the moment, a new uprising hasn't come up, but two Palestinian youths are dead, two other Palestinians are dead for carrying out stabbing attacks in Jerusalem, and two rockets have been fired from Gaza into Israel.
