Murad Abuh Hamdieh, Lily Haskell, Nadeen Elshorafa and Mohammed

Ibrahim and 5 others were arrested earlier today during the

demonstrations and are calling for broad community support. Police appear

to have targeted youth, Lily and Nadeen tried to unarrest them; they're

being charged with resisting arrest, and bail was set at $53,000 each.

*Right now, they're asking for people to be on call for this Monday and

Tuesday to show up and support them at the arraignment proceedings. *

They've also asked anyone who can loan a large chunk of money ($500+) for

bail to contact Vanessa Huang (510-508-9106). The ideal is to raise the

entirety of the bail money so that it will be refunded (partial bail is

not).

We believe it's important in the wake of the attacks on Gaza, and our local

responses, to recall that Palestinians and Arabs are generally those who are

the first to be targeted by the police, violent zionists, and the media.

Now, more than ever, we need to stand in solidarity with our comrades in

strategic defense.
