May he be redeemed safely and in health, along with all those who help to bring him home.Protest at the Syrian Mission: Tell Assad, "Free Gilad!"
IDF Cpl. Gilad Shalit, 19, continues to be held hostage by Hamas in Gaza. The order to kidnap him came from Damascus, and the order to free him must come from there too. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad plays a critical role in this hostage crisis, since Hamas leader Khalid Meshaal operates in Syria under his protection, as do other terrorist organizations.
We urge you to join in demanding that Cpl. Shalit be freed immediately and unconditionally, and to protest the murder of Eliyahu Asheri, at a demonstration in front of the Syrian Mission to the United Nations, Monday, July 10 at 12PM. The protest will feature public officials and will be covered by the press. We urge all to attend.
There was also an attached flyer, but I am not sure how to attach files... anybody know if there's a way?
I'm hoping to attend that tomorrow.
ReplyDeletepost the flyer as a picture?
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Irina - I'm babysitting, so no can do...
ReplyDeleteSarah - Nice idea, but I'm too lazy... plus, there isn't all that much more on them. This short notice is all that's necessary.

OK, it's up!
ReplyDeleteWe had around 250 people down in DC (the people in the Embassy were looking out their windows once we got loud enough, thoug the Secret Service wouldn't let us stand in the middle of the street so we were dispersed and looked smaller than we actually were). It definitely sent a message to the Embassy which, presumably, reports to Damascus. More than that, who knows...
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting, may we only need your blog to post good news in the future!
Michael - Amen! Good job - wish I could've been there.
