Today’s Rally in Pictures
A massive crowd gathered on Manhattans Broadway between 40Th and 41St Street, at 12 o’clock in the afternoon the NYPD shut down 2 lanes of this very busy street for this gathering, which in its own was a very big statement. Then later on as more and more people gathered the police ended up shutting down even more lanes.
An estimate of more then 2000 people gathered for the rally on this hot Tuesday, Camps Gan Menchem, Camp F.R.E.E. and LeMaan Achai attended on the boy’s side and Bais Rivka day camp and Bais Chaya Mushka day camp attended on the girls side. Cold water and ices were distributed to the campers throughout the rally.
The demonstration was timed to coincide with similar protests against Israel’s planned withdrawal from Gaza in Paris, Melbourne, London and Amsterdam, according to organizers.
At the rally in Midtown, the stage was shared by young kids saying the twelve Pesukim, singer Avraham Fried belting out lines like “Gush Katif – You are not alone!” and New York State Assemblyman, Dov Hikind, who reminded the crowd, “Hashem is watching us.”
The rally was organized and arranged by Tzivos Hashem.
