Vice Chairman Yaakov Haguel of the World Zionist Organization told a Jerusalem rally against anti-Semitism on Sunday, "In times of crisis, we were used in the State of Israel to lovingly receive unrestricted support from the Diaspora Jewry. Today, from the capital of the Jewish people, we stand here in solidarity with the Diaspora Jewry as one people and say together: We are not afraid! We are here to inspire the world!"
Noting the rally's schedule to coincide with one in New York, Haguel continued, "We are here, at the same time as the rally that is taking place in the United States during these hours to say enough anti-Semitism, enough hate, enough fear. Our strength is in our unity - we stand together with the Diaspora Jewry and with a clear and unified voice - we call for the end of anti-Semitism! Raise your head with Jewish pride! Hatred stops here!"
