Please come if you can (especially if you work near downtown), and  
pass the word on to others...

Tell the Israeli Government:
STOP KILLING PALESTINIAN CIVILIANS!


Thursday, November 16
12:30 - 1:30 pm


Protest deadly Israeli assaults on Gaza

at the Israeli Consulate, 20 Park Plaza, Boston
(near Arlington T stop on the Green Line)

Please wear black


Stand with us as we mourn the dead in Gaza and let the Israeli  
government know that the killing must end. We will not remain silent  
as the Israeli government kills Palestinians indiscriminately, holds  
Gaza under siege, builds an Apartheid wall through the West Bank,  
destroys the livelihood of millions, ignores UN resolutions and  
international law, and denies basic human rights to Palestinian  people.


Using U.S. weapons paid for by U.S. tax dollars, Israeli military  
forces have killed 77 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip in the past two  
weeks.  On Wednesday, November 8, the Israeli military shelled five  
homes in the Al-Kafarnah neighborhood, leaving 18 civilians dead,  
including 7 children, 6 women and 11 members of the same family.   
Between 2000 and 2006, Israel has killed 2,300 Gazans, including 300  
in the past 4 months.

U.S. tax dollars -- sent to Israel as "international aid" -- have  
provided much of the weaponry used to attack Palestinian civil society.

This week, protests will be held at Israeli consulates around the  
nation and around the world, in response to an urgent call for  
assistance from Palestinian organizations and international  
solidarity  groups.
