Beth Miller, a spokesperson, said:

“The reason we were here, specifically as Jews, is because the Biden administration and the Israeli government often say this genocide they are committing is in the name of Jewish safety and we reject that with every fiber of our being.”

She added: “We were taught in our Jewish tradition that every single life is a universe and that to destroy a single life is to destroy an entire universe.”

Approximately 200 of the peaceful demonstrators were arrested. Hopefully a fair-minded NYC judge will dismiss the cases.

Note that US Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and NYC Congresswoman AOC receive ZERO dollars from AIPAC.
