Demonstration call from the Anti-War Coalition
Enough! Stop the killing and the destruction in Lebanon, Gaza and Israel!
A demonstration against the second Lebanon War
Saturday, July 22, in Tel Aviv
Meeting point: 6:30 pm at the Rabin Square
The policy of brute force a war, backed by the Bush Administration, exacts a heavy price from Israelis, Lebanese and Palestinians. The attempt to create a "New Regional Order" and the plans to attacks Syria as well are bound to lead to new disasters.
This is the time to confront the war crimes and the deliberate targeting of civilians. This is the time to demand: Silence the guns, start talking! There are no military solutions. The bombings do not prevent attacks on the Israeli civilian population, nor will they restore the captive soldiers to their families.
We call upon all citizens of Israel - men and women, Jews and Arabs, each and every person of conscience - to work together for the restoration of sanity, against the illusion of a military dictat. Let us demonstrate for an alternative way, a way of peace and security based upon the withdrawal of the IDF from all Occupied Territories, dismantling of the settlements, a peace agreement between the State of Israel and the State of Palestine, and respect for the sovereignty of all states in the region.
Organizers:
Yesh-Gvul, Maki, Hadash, Women's Coalition For Peace, Gush-Shalom, Tandi, Bat-Shalom, Banki, AIC, Combatants For Peace, Shministim, Ta'ayush

Petition against the war crimes
Stop the crimes!
Israel is committing widescale war crimes. A whole country is being destroyed, whole communities are uprooted, tens of thousands of families are broken apart, hundreds of civilians are killed and thousands wounded. No excuse can whitewash these crimes: neither the kidnapping of soldiers nor the killings of civilians in the population centres of Northern Israel can cover Israel's barbarity in Lebanon.
THESE CRIMES MUST BE STOPPED!
To sign the petition, which is due to be published in Ha'aretz, send an email to laor@barak.net.il We expect a donation of about a 100 Shekels from each signatory, the money to be deposited at Bank Hapoalim Branch 679, account 119442, or sent by check (to the order of "Mateh Ha'Koalitzya") to POB 1335, Kfar Sava 44113. Both checks and deposits should be marked "for petition".
The first protest vigil in the Galiliee took place on Thursday, at Majd-el-Krum Junction
(near where the Katyusha rockets fell).
