June 01, 2010 — On Tuesday afternoon, June 1, 2010, a
protest action was held in front of the White House.The demonstration
was in response to a May 31th attack by Israeli Military
Forces on a humanitarian six-boat flotilla, in international
waters, in the Mediterranean Sea, carrying 10,000 tons of
supplies to Occupied Gaza. The assault has caused outrage
around the globe. At least nine civilians were killed by
the Israelis and another 60 or so wounded. One of those speaking
out at the rally was Orthodox Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss.
He is associated with "Orthodox Jews United Against
Zionism," and is a member of "Neturei Karta International." Rabbi
Weiss said: "We cry and we pray for the people of Palestine
and Gaza." He was also sharply critical in his remarks
of the political ideology of Zionism.
