Demonstrators called Jews "Zionist pigs," intimidate Holocaust survivor at Berkeley City Council meeting. [View all]





CRC Bay Area
@SFJCRC
WATCH: Yesterday, the Berkeley City Council held its final meeting before a one-month recess. The agenda of the meeting included an item on marking Holocaust Remembrance Day and funding educational programs around this commemoration. There was nothing on the meeting agenda about the Israel-Hamas War.

Demonstrators called Jews "Zionist pigs," intimidated a Holocaust survivor, stole and threw a Jewish man's phone toward the dais and implied city council members were being bought by the Jewish community.
