Caffe Aronne owner Aaron Dahan (inset) has gained close to $50K in donations, served 15K customers in a single day, and rapidly expanded the business's Instagram following to 10K in just one day, following a walkout by his staff due to his support for Israel.
Dahan, 25, served a continuous line (right) of customers reaching around the corner for two straight days, and stayed open until midnight - far past closing hours - after at least five baristas resigned on Tuesday when he addressed the 'Free Palestine' pins they wore to work.
Amidst the chaotic scene of supporters on Wednesday afternoon. Susan Lax, a peace activist and owner of Naot, a renowned Israeli shoe brand, has a close friend held hostage in Gaza . She came out Wednesday afternoon, waiting nearly two hours in line for a cup of coffee, simply as a show of support.
