Thousands in New York City Protest Israeli Attack on Gaza 
----------------------------------------------------------


 
Palestinian solidarity rallies have been held around the world in recent
days. In New York City, thousands of people protested in front of the
Israeli Mission to the United Nations before marching through the
streets.

Protester: "We hope to change public opinion so that they understand
that Palestinians are not terrorists, that they are defending
themselves. It's an unfair situation that they're going through. They're
living under occupation. They have no human rights. They have no rights
to anything that we enjoy here as Americans."

Muhammed Chaudhry: "At least we've got to take the first step, though, a
ceasefire, no more violence, no more killing of the innocent, from both
parties."
