A Nov. 8 Israeli artillery assault on the northern Gaza town of Beit Hanoun killed 18 members of one Palestinian family and left more than 40 people seriously wounded, many of whom lost limbs. At least four of the dead were young children. The shelling brought the total killed by the Israeli siege of Beit Hanoun to nearly 70 people over the past eight days. On the same day, a pre-dawn Israeli attack killed five Palestinians near Jenin in the northern West Bank.
It is imperative to protest the presence of racist Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in Los Angeles when he speaks to pro-occupation groups at the Convention Center. Protesters will assemble outside the Convention Center at the corner of 12th and S. Figueroa St. in downtown LA at 4pm. There is street and lot parking on Flower St. nearby.
More than 325 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli Occupation Forces since late June, most by air and artillery strikes on heavily populated residential towns and refugee camps. Gaza is one of the most densely populated areas of the world.
Olmert also is responsible for launching a war on the people of Lebanon in which more than 1,000 Lebanese died and over 1 million were displaced. The criminal Israeli government used illegal phosphorous bombs and left up to 1 million cluster bombs in Lebanon when they "withdrew" after suffering a military and political defeat.
Come out on Nov. 14 to voice opposition to the apartheid policies of the Israeli government and their U.S. backers in the White House and Congress.
Free Palestine! End the Colonial Occupation Now! Stop the Killings in Gaza! No U.S. Aid to Israel! Right of Return for all Palestinians! Free Palestinian Political Prisoners!
