Palestine | San FranciscoBay Area Jews Call For an End to Israel's Seige of Gaza (2 of 2 posts)
17 Jewish activists arrested in CD in front of Israeli consulate After the short but rousing program, an intergenerational group of 17 Jewish activists took to the street, completely blocking Montgomery Street for over an hour before being arrested (all were given infraction citations and released). The large crowd stayed on in front of the Israeli consulate the whole time, continuing the demonstration and supporting the people engaged in civil disobedience.
