NYC Protest Against Iran
23:00 Oct 31, '05 / 28 Tishrei 5766
(IsraelNN.com) A busload of High School students, alarmed by Iranian President Ahmadinejad’s repeated, public threats a week ago to annihilate Israel, will demonstrate at the Iranian mission to the United Nations on Tuesday, November 1st, at 5:30PM. The mission is at 622 Third Avenue, at 40th Street, in Manhattan.
The students are from the Frisch Yeshiva High School. They stated: “We have learned that Hitler wasn’t taken seriously when he declared for years that he’d wipe out the Jews. In so many cases since then, from Rwanda to Darfur, threats of extermination weren’t heeded – until they occurred.”
Along with the Frisch students, scores of other students and Jewish activists will be demonstrating.
“Now is the time for the world to wake up to the threat of Iran. Now is the time for the world to condemn Iran and stop mass murder before it’s too late,” stated Rabbi Avi Weiss, President of AMCHA.
