Rally & Vigil for Gaza
Saturday, 1/14 - 2:00pm until 6:30pm
Balboa Park @ the Fountain
The holidays have arrived and people all over the world are
celebrating with their loved ones. Yet, this time of the year
symbolizes a period of continuing terror and constant uncertainty for
Palestinians imprisoned in the Gaza Strip, which remains today in its
fifth year under a criminal siege.
Three years ago, the state of Israel launched a 22-day brutal and
criminal attack on 1.5 million Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip.
This attack began on December 27, 2008 and continued until January 18,
2009. Israel sealed off all the borders of Gaza to prevent
Palestinians from fleeing to safety. The Gaza Strip was transformed
into a slaughterhouse leaving 1417 Palestinians dead (including 352
children) & 5300 permanently wounded.
To mark the 3rd anniversary of the 22-day massacre, Al-Awda San Diego,
together with other organizations (see below), will hold a
demonstration followed by a candlelight vigil. We demand an end to the
siege of Gaza and will honor all the martyrs and the victims who were
injured and terrorized by Israeli state violence.
JOIN US!
The demonstration and candlelight vigil will take place on Saturday,
January 14th starting at 2 PM @ the Fountain in Balboa Park.
