Rally for Palestine, New York

That's Cynthia McKinney, Green Party candidate for President, speaking at the rally which was held at Dag Hammarskjold Park near the United Nations in New York. It rained like hell the whole day.

Neturei Karta were there, http://www.nkusa.org/

I like these guys.

Another sign of theirs read "Return Palestine in its entirety to the Palestinians" or something along those lines.


We marched down 2nd Ave, apparently past the Israeli Embassy but there was no sign that indicated where the embassy was. There were several hundred people in all, led by the largest Palestinian flag I've ever seen. The procession turned a serious number of heads in the barber shops, coffee shops, and restaurants we walked past, and there were people in all the office windows in the skyscrapers above gawking down as we marched by, cheering and chanting.
