Leading Jewish-Zionist groups in the U.S. have decided to celebrate the holiday of Purim differently this year, and have decided to hold a Megillah reading at the Iranian UN Mission in Manhattan, New York.
The event is sponsored by Americans for a Safe Israel, Amcha-Coalition for Jewish Concerns, Jewish Political Education Foundation, andZSTREET, and its purpose is to “tell the world — and today’s Haman, Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — that we will not be silent as he threatens Israel with destruction and seeks ways to further destabilize the Mideast.”
