Congregation Beit Simchat Torah, the iconic Manhattan LGBTQ synagogue, instructed marchers joining it June 25 in the New York Pride Parade to avoid wearing clothing or carrying signs relating to the Jewish state or the Palestinians, the Forward has learned.

We were trying to say the debate about Israel and Palestine is not located in this event, said Sharon Kleinbaum, the senior rabbi of CBST.
