(at the SOUTHWEST CORNER OF 40TH & 1ST AVENUE)

The New York Board of Rabbis (NYBR) gathered at 1st Avenue and 40th street to protest the President of Iran . They gathered at the UN to protest and to voice their condemnation of the madman of Tehran, Mahmud Ahmadinejad being granted a platform at the United Nations.

The Rabbis were joined by the Inter-Faith Community and formed a Human Link Across First Avenue in Protest

The New York Board of Rabbis (NYBR), is the largest interdenominational
rabbinic body in the world representing over 700 Rabbis from the New York
metropolitan area .
Members of the Interfaith community participated as well.

After linking arms and forming a chain to block 1st Avenue in
protest the police then asked them to leave the street or they would be arrested. With the blowing of the shofar, they willingly and respectfully cleared 1st Avenue.
