Last night, a minyan of T'ruah rabbis wearing tallitot and holding sacks of flour and rice blocked 2nd Avenue in New York City, in front of the Israeli consulate. We held signs that said "Food --> Gaza" and posters with images of starving Gazan children.

As we were handcuffed and taken away, a crowd of hundreds of American Jews and Israeli Americans cried out "Let Gaza Live!" At one point, the crowd chanted "That's My Rabbi," and we were so moved by the support, giving us strength to keep being a loud moral voice.

We refuse to accept business as usual while people are starving.

We insist that Israel be held accountable.

We insist that a surge of aid be brought into Gaza, that the hostages be released, and that the war ends NOW.
