Museum Protestor Attacked and Beaten
David Willcox was among the protesters when the Holocaust Memorial Museum
was dedicated. He waved a Palestinian flag. "I thought that somehow that
day we had to make a presence for the Palestinians." he said. Later that
day he was attacked and beaten.
Michael Schneider, self-identified leader of the Washington area's chapter
of the Jewish Defense Organization, said that members of his group followed
and beat Willcox and three other protesters. Police said they had no suspects
in the beatings.
