Most events during Tuesday’s loosely organized protests were modest and peaceful, though some demon strators were heckled. A rally for the Palestinian cause drew about 1,000 sup porters and spectators at the University of California, Berkeley, including pro-Israel demonstrators who shouted their disapproval while police kept watch. After the rally, campus police arrested 79 pro-Palestinian pro testers who stormed into a class room building. Some students hung a Palestinian flag from a third-story window, while others marched in the hallways of the building, which houses class rooms for Middle Eastern studies. Students for Justice in Palestine likened the current Mideast violence to the Holocaust — only with the Palestinians as the victims. They also called for the uni versity to divest any Israel- related investments. “This really should be Holocaust prevention day,” said Sarah Weir, a 23-year-old cog nitive science major. As speakers made their case during the rally, counter-demon strators tried to drown them out crying “Stop the suicide bomb ings!” They also booed, cursed and chanted “Shame!” At the same time, a small knot of people in a tent nearby read aloud the names of peo ple killed by the Nazis, part of a 24-hour vigil for Yom Hashoah, the Jewish Holocaust remembrance day. “They are trying to subvert language used in the Holocaust," said Eddan Katz, 26, a third-year law student and Israeli-American. “I hear no one in Israel politics today talking about the eradica tion of all Palestinians.
