Protesters stand up for Palestinians

Scott Rockefeller; photographs by Suzie O'Rourke

Transcribed from the clipping

About 60 people at the Broome County Courthouse. “The demonstrators carried a wide array of signs, some reading ‘No Justice, No Peace,’ ‘Stop Genocide in Palestine’ and ‘Sharon Must Stop His Nazism.’” Farouq Al-Khalidi of Binghamton: “If most Americans knew the real story, they would probably be more sympathetic.” A second photograph shows Moinuddin Ansari holding a placard of photographs: “These are not the faces of Terrorism... but of Massacre.”

Context added by this archive

One of the few cases where the reporter types the word out, and only as a transcription of what was written on a sign.
