More at AJC.com: “Protesters calling for Israel to stop its assault on Gaza lined the sidewalk in front of CNN’s headquarters Saturday.
“Gaza, Gaza, don’t you cry, in our hearts, you’ll never die,” chanted the crowd, which numbered about 50 when the protest began at 2 p.m., but more than doubled in size within 30 minutes.
Some held signs calling for Israel to end its attacks on Hamas-occupied Gaza. Others compared the massacre to the Holocaust or to South Africa’s apartheid.
“The perpetual violence has to stop,” said Tim Franzen , who works for the American Friends Service Committee, a Quaker organization. Franzen said the group has staff in Gaza.
Saturday’s protest is the third one this week. The other two were held last Saturday and Tuesday in front of the Consulate General of Israel . Groups decided to gather in front of CNN to also protest media coverage of the attacks, which are in their eighth day.”
