Be There Israel was on hand in Jerusalem during
Tisha b'Av. We broadcast the reading of
Eicha (the Book of Lamentations) the evening of August 8th, 2011, which took place at "Gan HaSoos" (the "Horse Park") in Downtown Jerusalem, which has become a Tent City for the Social Justice Protesters who have in the last month risen up (and camped out) throughout Israel.
Rabbi Aaron Leibowitz and
Rav Raz Hartman led the reading of Eicha, and Be There Israel (who was asked to "be there" by the
Jerusalem Challenge Project) broadcast the entire event in live real-time streaming video to Jewish organizations all over the U.S.
