Protesters chant 'loyalty oath delegitimizes Israel' during Prime Minister's speech at Jewish Federations General Assembly.
By Sara MillerPrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech at the Jewish Federations General Assembly on Monday was marked by repeated heckling from members of the audience, who were then unceremoniously escorted from the plush ballroom.
The first heckler, who interrupted Netanyahu barely moments after he began his 30 minute speech, was ejected while shouting "the loyalty oath delegitimizes Israel".
The prime minister, unperturbed by the interruption, responded by saying, "I was going to talk about delegitimizing Israel but they really have the wrong address."
