25,000 Marched in New York to Denounce Anti-Semitism
----------------------------------------------------

Here in New York City, up to 25,000 people marched from Lower Manhattan
over the Brooklyn Bridge on Sunday to denounce anti-Semitism. The march
follows a surge in anti-Semitic attacks in the greater New York area,
including the stabbing of Jewish worshipers who had gathered at a
rabbi's house to celebrate Hanukkah in Monsey, New York, just over one
week ago. This is Gail Senten, one of the protesters Sunday.

Gail Senten: "It was wonderful. It was just very inspiring. And I hope
that people recognize that we are strong and that we will not allow all
this anti-Semitism, that has been rampant in New York City and in the
tri-state area and in America, to continue."
