Jewish Activists Stage Anti-Israel Die-In in NYC

HeadlineAug 23, 2006

In New York, 20 Jewish activists staged a die-in at Penn Station to protest Israel’s actions in Lebanon and Gaza. Dressed in black, the activists lied down outside the train station during morning rush hour. In California, 20 people were arrested outside the San Francisco Jewish Center.

  • Ora Wise: “Today, here at Penn station here in NYC, we are a group of Jews joining groups of Jews in Philadelphia, Los Angeles and San Francisco. We are expressing our outrage at Israel’s brutal attacks on Lebanon and Gaza and demanding that the U.S. Government stop sending political, economic and military aid to Israel to fuel their attacks on innocent civilians.”
