URGENT COUNTER-PROTEST , TUESDAY, MARCH 9, 5-7 P.M.

TO ALL THOSE WHO CARE ABOUT ISRAEL - IT IS URGENT THAT YOU ATTEND THE
COUNTER-PROTEST RALLY

Across from the WALDORF ASTORIA - PARK AVE.,bet. 49th & 50th , NYC

UPDATE:
The NYPD has switched the locations for Tuesday night WE ARE GOING TO BE on
PARK at W. 50th - 51st, and the Haters will be at W. 48th - 49th.

On Tuesday, March 9, The Friends of the IDF is having their annual dinner at
the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in NYC. We have learned that there will be an Arab
demonstration outside the hotel, defaming the IDF and Gabi Ashkenazi, the
Chief of the IDF General Staff.

We will be handing out information, holding signs, Israeli and American
flags, and alerting the public as to the true nature of Fatah, Hamas and the
PA. The Hamas terrorist acts against Christians and Fatah, the use of women
and children as human shields, the firing of rockets from mosques, homes,
and schools in order to deter IDF retaliation, the misinformation and hatred
being fed to Arab children in their classrooms and through PA media, will
all be detailed.

We'll be highlighting the IDF and Israeli assistance to the Arabs in the
fields of medical care, education, and providing a standard of living for
Arab Israelis that is the highest in the Middle East. In addition, in
opposition to the recent "apartheid" claims against Israel, the Israeli
Arabs enjoy full democratic rights in the Knesset , in their religious
observances, and in the media.

A number of grass roots activist groups have come together to
counter-protest on that evening. They include Americans For a Safe
Israel/AFSI, Get Out The Facts, Human Rights Coalition Against Radical
Islam, National Council of Young Israel, Shalom International, Stand With
Us, World Committee for the Land of Israel, Zionist Organization of
America/ZOA . Individuals such as Assemblyman Dov Hikind, Lori Lowenthal
Marcus, and Andy Upton are also working with us. Others continue to join.
PLEASE BE THERE WITH US - MARCH 9, 5-7 P.M.
