EMERGENCY ACTION ALERT – FORWARD WIDELY
Counter Protest Anti-Israel demonstration outside the Israeli Consulate
Downtown San Francisco, 456 Montgomery Street
Monday, November 6th, 4-6 PM
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.
As they did earlier this year, anti-Israel groups such as Women In Black, International Solidarity Movement, and the American Arab Anti Discrimination Committee group "Break the Seige" will be protesting in front of the Israeli consulate to demand that Israel stop defending herself and to allow unlimited bombing of Israel. These groups all reject Israel’s right to exist.
EVENT DETAILS:
This event was just announced yesterday but we believe we can still mount an effective response. Stand With Us/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 the pro-Israel demonstration so that our enemies know that even when they try to keep us away by holding events during the workday, we will still 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!
