multimedia blog Photos: NYC demonstration for Lebanon and Gaza Nigel Parry, Saturday, July 29th, 2006 When Israel launched its war against Gaza on June 27th, and against Lebanon on July 12th, the Palestinian-American, Lebanese-American, and wider Arab-American community rallied together for a series of demonstrations across New York City. I attended a demonstration that began in Brooklyn and ended up in Manhattan, via the Brooklyn Bridge. A beautiful day, the peaceful march was only marred by blatant police infiltration, more than a little creepy in the post-Patriot Act era.
