Emergency Protest in L.A. at Israeli Consulate

This Tuesday, December 30, 4:30pm-7pm

Israeli Consulate: 6380 Wilshire Blvd, LA (near Wilshire & San Vicente)

The ANSWER Coalition, Muslim American Society Freedom, Free Palestine Alliance, National Council of Arab Americans, and Al-Awda, International Palestine Right to Return Coalition are calling for Tuesday, December 30 to be a National Day of Action to show solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza and to demand an immediate end to the murderous attacks carried out by20the Israeli military against the people of Gaza.

In Los Angeles, there will be a demonstration at the Israeli Consulate at 4:30pm. We urge all progressive people to attend. Bring signs, banners and Palestinian flags to show your solidarity with the suffering people and denounce the inhuman war crimes committed against the Palestinians in Gaza.

Along with the L.A. action, demonstrations will also be held in cities around the country. See below for an initial list.

For more info call 213-251-1025 or e-mail answerla@answerla.org.

Hundreds of Palestinians in Gaza have been massacred and wounded today as Israel has launched a massive bombing campaign against the people of Gaza. The bombing r ampage took place as thousands of Palestinian children were in the streets on their way home from school. Palestinian parents were running frantically in the streets looking for their children as U.S.-provided F-16s and Apache helicopters rained down more than 100 bombs and missiles on Gaza.

The U.S.-backed Israeli Occupation Force destroyed every security station in Gaza. AFP reported: "There was no space left in the morgue and bodies were piled up in the emergency room and in the corridors, as many of the wounded screamed in pain."

Because of the U.S.-backed Israeli blockade and strangulation of the people of Gaza for the past 18 months there is little or no medicine to treat the wounded, electricity for hospitals, or food or clean water for much of the population.

An Israeli military spokesperson said, "The operation is 'only just beginning'." The Israeli Defense Ministry said in a statement: "The action will continue and will widen as much as is demanded according to the evaluation of the situation by the high command of the army."

Take Action:

- Demonstrations Across the Country

- Send a letter to the State Department and Congress
