American Jews: Stop arming Israel, funding genocide

July 24, 2024 - 19:33

Around 400 American Jews, including over a dozen rabbis, staged a sin-in in a Capitol office building a day before Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech in the US Congress.

Demonstrators from Jewish Voice for Peace took to the Cannon Rotunda on Capitol Hill Tuesday afternoon, wearing red shirts with the message "Jews say stop arming Israel”. They also called on the US administration and Congress to stop funding Israeli “genocide” in the Gaza Strip.
