Jacob Wise, a Jewish rabbi participating in the rally, said attempts to ban pro-Palestine demonstrations amount to anti-Semitism, stressing that protesters are standing in solidarity with the oppressed people and innocent civilians affected by the violence.
Another participant, Geoffrey Verlan, criticized efforts to restrict Palestine solidarity marches under the guise of combating anti-Semitism.
He said many Jewish people support Palestinian rights and noted that the continued presence of Jewish activists at such demonstrations helps counter the perception that all Jews oppose the Palestinian cause.
