BACKGROUND
Palestinian terror organizations in Gaza including both Hamas and Fatah have been continuously shelling Southern Israel for the past two years. When Israel ended its presence in Gaza in August 2005, the shelling increased, thus putting an end to the myth that "Occupation" was the source of Palestinian violence. Israel finally decided that enough was enough in June of 2006 and launched operations designed to end the prolonged siege of her civilians.
Many of the bombs are coming from the Palestinian city of Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza, less then 3km from the Israeli city of Sderot.
Regrettably, there have been civilian casualties, some from being human shields for the terrorists, others from errant shells for which Israel has apologized.
Some civilians are even being treated in Israeli Hospitals.
Women In Black and and the American Arab Anti Discrimination Committee group "Break the Siege" will be protesting Israel’s defensive actions on Friday and Saturday. As was clear from their demonstration outside the Israeli Consulate this past Monday, they object not only to Israel’s defensive actions to protect her citizenry, but the very existence of Israel itself. Chants such as "Palestine will be free/from the river to the sea" and "Long live the intifada" show that they not only support the ongoing terror against innocent Israeli civilians, but they want the entirety of Israel to be wiped off the map!
EVENT DETAILS:
Friday’s event was just announced yesterday but we believe we can still mount an effective response.
Stand WithUs/SF Voice For Israel will have a representative on site to provide the pro-Israel voice. Even if you can come for just a few minutes, please add your voice to these pro-Israel
demonstration so that our enemies know that even whenever they come out to promote terror and to deligitiize Israel, we will be there.
If at all possible please bring your own signs and flags. Due to the timing of the event, we will be unable to provide many signs and flags of our own.
Signs or graphics offensive to any racial or ethnic group including but not limited to Arabs, Islam, or Palestinians will not be allowed.
Demand an end to rocket attacks against Israeli civilians!
Demand Gilad Shalit, Eldad Regev, and Ehud Goldwasser be returned home safely!
Demand the Palestinian Authority put an end to terror attacks!
Demand an end to the deligitimization and demonization of Israel!
Demand the Palestinian Authority and their local supporters choose peace so that the Palestinian people can have a future!
