Jewish and Christian groups in the U.S. are calling on Israel’s supporters to rally on behalf of the Jewish state in the nation’s capital next week. “The March for Israel” will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 14.
Event organizers say the goals are threefold:
Calling for the release of the more than 240 hostages held by Hamas. Standing against the rise of global antisemitism since the Oct. 7Â attack. And, showing support for the Biden administration and members of Congress who are backing Israel’s right to defend itself.Â
People are expected to show up in strong numbers and participants are calling for the return of the estimated 240 hostages Hamas terrorists have been holding since their barbaric attack inside Israel on Oct. 7.Â
