A casket draped in a French flag, representing the “death of French honor” was carried up Fifth Avenue Thursday in a “funeral” procession by more than 200 persons protesting the release of Palestinian terrorist Abu Daoud. The march, organized by the Zionist Organization of America, began at the Air France office and ended at the French Consulate 20 blocks away. The protestors carried signs reading “French Honor Is Dead.”
