Neturei Karta Campaigns In New Hampshire Against Israel

Texas Congressman and Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul (L) shakes hands with Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss head of the Neturei Karta

Concord, NH - While the candidates were the main attraction, part of the allure of the New Hampshire Primary is always the sideshow that develops, particulary where five or more candidates are gathered.

Aside from diehard supporters of every candidate, factions representing various local and national unions were out in force, waving signs and chanting for their causes, including the Manchester Newspaper Guild, who are asking their employer event sponsor the New Hampshire Union Leader, to negotiate a fair contract.

Across the street a group of about 30 orthodox Jews, members of Neturei Karta, who traveled from New York, stood side-by-side holding banners urging the presidential candidates to support the Palestinian people by rejecting support for Israel as an independent state.
