Here in New York, hundreds of members of Jewish Voice for Peace and others protested outside the office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement Monday, the third night of the Jewish holiday of Passover, as alarm spread over the seizure of Mohsen Mahdawi.

Bridgette Bissonnette: “My name is Bridgette Bissonnette, and I have a great deal of family that means a great deal to me who are Jewish. And, you know, the Jewish principles are very much about liberation for all people and that this is a movement. And this is not a movement that we can be deporting. This is not a movement that involves hate. This is not a movement that involves violence. So, Passover is about the liberation of people. And we stand here for all people to say, 'Not ever again, not anyone.'”
