Please distribute widely. Thank you.
Many thanks to all who joined the emergency demonstration in downtown Portland last Tuesday and showed solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Gaza who are steadfast in their resistance to Israel's criminal occupation and war of starvation, imprisonment and bombardment.
BUT THE BOMBARDMENT CONTINUES AND ISRAELI TANKS ARE SITTING AT GAZA'S BORDER READY TO ATTACK. THIS HORRIFIC SITUATION DEMANDS THAT WE TAKE ACTION AGAIN!
PLEASE JOIN US THIS FRIDAY, JANUARY 2ND at 4:30 PM,
DOWNTOWN PORTLAND ACROSS FROM THE FEDERAL BUILDING
AT S.W. 3RD AND MADISON.
Bring children's shoes as a symbol to place in front of the huge picture of George Bush and any politician who remains silent in the face of Israel's crimes against the Palestinian people. We want the world to see that U.S. politicians are directly responsible for the deaths of Palestinians children and adults.
Are you listening Senator Wyden? Are you listening Jeff Merkley? Are you listening Congressmen Wu, Blumenhauer, Defazio, Walden, and congressman-elect Schrader. Are you listening President elect Obama?
JOIN THE PROTEST AND BRING CHILDREN'S SHOES to S.W. 3rd and Madison Friday January 2nd at 4:30.
Organized by: Americans United for Palestinian Human Rights, American Jews for a Just Peace, Portland Peaceful Response Coalition and other organizations.
