NY Protestors: Tsipi Livni You Can’t Hide…We Charge You with Genocide



A group of 50 protesters picketed outside New York's venerable Russian Tea Room on Thursday evening protested in opposition to an appearance there by Tzipi Livni.
Protestors chanted "Tzipi Livni, you can't hide - we charge you with genocide" and called for Livni to be prosecuted for "Israeli" war crimes in Gaza.

The protesters distributed handbills that described Livni as a key official responsible for "Israel's" attacks on Lebanon in 2006 and on Gaza last year.

They also carried signs that accused "Israel" of war crimes and referenced the numbers of civilians killed in recent "Israeli" military campaigns.

Livni, former Foreign Minister of "Israel" as well as the leader of the opposition party, Kadima is among "Israeli" officials who feared traveling to Europe last year due to risk of facing arrest.

All sessions of the conference with the exception of the speech by Livni were held across town. The conference organizers had attempted to keep the location of the Livni speech a secret from the public by disclosing the venue only to registered attendees, citing "security concerns" and referencing the risk that Livni may face arrest when she travels outside "Israel".
