Anit-Israeli sign: "Israeli - New Nazi"
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 2011
Dear Friends and Members,
YOUR UGENT ATTENTION IS NEEDED! Please read this message until the very end.
On February 22, 2011, there was an anti-Israel protest in front of Carnegie Hall, whilst the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra performed inside. Arab organisations use unsuspecting Americans and put them up to these shenanigans. Seventy protesters showed up, mock pamphlets were handed to the audience with a description of the "apartheid" state, banners and signs were held up, the protesters shouted and sang songs against Israel.
But as all this was going on, where were all the pro-Israeli counter protesters? There were none!
However, it is not too late to organise a counter protest in the following cities:
February 26, Seattle, WA, Benaroya Hall, 7:15 PM – 8:15 PM
Organised by Palestine Solidarity Committee – Seattle
February 27, San Francisco, CA, Davies Symphony Hall, 6 PM
Organised by Queers Undermining Israeli Terrorism (QUIT!)
March 1, Los Angeles, CA, Walt Disney Concert Hall, 6:30 PM – 8 PM
Organised by BDS-LA
We need another DANIEL! We need as many as possible!
Now is the time to show your support for Israel. If you live in or near any of the three cities above, please bring together a group of people — no matter how big or small — to participate in a non-violent counter protest against the protesters. Carry Israeli flags if available, and signs like the one above, or hand-written signs like: 'End The Hamas Occupation', '"Palestine" is the REAL Apartheid State - No Jews Allowed', 'Fatah Sentences to Death Arabs Who Sell Land to Jews', 'The DRUZE SERVE IN THE IDF. Create your own sign and write whatever you think will disrupt the protest.
I URGE YOU TO TAKE ACTION NOW! Be part of the movement by showing your support. If I lived in any of these cities, I would most certainly show up to disrupt the protest.
Below is a description of what happened on February 22 in front of Carnegie Hall. Please do not let this happen again without a counter protest.
Israel and the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra need your support TODAY!
Thank you very much,
Michelle Cohen
