On his WABC Radio show, Aaron Klein offered $50,000 to an organizer
of the upcoming Global March to Jerusalem if the activist could name
one city in the Middle East outside of Israel that has more freedom
than Jerusalem.
Following in the footsteps of recent flotilla events, the March 30
event aims to storm Israel’s borders to “demand freedom for Jerusalem
and its people and to put an end to the Apartheid, ethnic cleansing
and Judaisation policies affecting the people, land and sanctity of
Jerusalem.”
Endorsers of the Global March include President Obama’s controversial
former pastor, Jeremiah Wright; Cornel West, a longtime friend of
Obama who served as an adviser to the president’s 2008 campaign; and
Medea Benjamin, co-founder of Code Pink. According to reports, Iran
is also heavily involved in organizing the march.
