"Some 1,000 people participated in the noisy, colorful, militant march through Westwood that demanded an end to the Israeli occupation of Palestinian land. Giant Puppets, noise makers, banners, and a sea of Palestinian Flags drove home the point... 'Free Palestine Now!'The majority of the protestors were Palestinian... but there were significant numbers of Asians, Latinos, African Americans, and Anglos who lent their support. Many individual Jews were also in attendance, though there was no organized Jewish representation among the demonstrators,"
