Nearly 2,000 people gathered at Temple Emanuel in Denver on Monday night for a vigil to support Israel and mourn the lives lost in the wake of deadly attacks by Hamas militants that began Saturday.
There were few empty seats at the synagogue at 51 Grape St., including those filled by elected officials such as Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser and U.S. Reps. Diana DeGette, Jason Crow and Joe Neguse.
At least 1,600 people have been killed and thousands more injured in the attacks and retaliatory fighting between Israel and Hamas since Saturday, according to The Associated Press.“You feel like you can’t do anything except pray,” Burge said. “It’s kind of a hopeless feeling.” Blake Jordan-Borns draped an Israeli flag across his shoulders as he waited in line to enter the synagogue.
DeGette told the crowd while this wasn’t the time for a political speech, there is strong support for Israel on both sides of the aisle. Keeler: Show Prime the money!
