Hamse Sutotow, chairman of the Beta Israel Association, said 2,000 Ethiopian Jews gathered Wednesday at the Israeli Embassy. The protesters were demanding the right to Israeli citizenship.

who do they think they are. i dont care if they are israelis, but i care if they hold demonstrations without notifying police and contrary to public peace. what if they provide some situations for extremist opposition and Afewerki's "baghdad plan". they have to be persecuted.
