SHOULD AN ATTACK OCCUR:

II.     Make phone calls to those above to express your outrage.

III.     Contact local media to express your outrage.

IV.     Join a protest being organized near you: San Francisco, San Jose or Santa Rosa. Or organize your own protest in your area. Please bring signs and Palestinian flags.

SAN FRANCISCO:
*On the day following an attack* (or boarding) of any ship in the Freedom
 Flotilla 2- Stay Human, we invite all people of conscience to gather outside
 the *Israeli Consulate at 456 Montgomery St., #2100. San Francisco, Ca 94104
 at 5:00 pm*.

SAN JOSE:
In San Jose: gather outside the *Dr Martin Luther King Jr Library (San Jose Public Library) at 150 East San Fernando Street, San Jose, CA 95112 at 5:00 pm

SANTA ROSA:
If Israel responds with violence - as they did last time — there will be a peaceful protest in Courthouse Square in Santa Rosa from 6:00 to 7:00 the evening of the incident.


 We also ask that Palestine solidarity groups and peace and justice groups spread this message across their membership through listservs, phone calls, and other forms of social media. It is of the utmost importance that this event has a large attendance; international pressure — especially from the United States — is a critical factor in preventing Israel from acting with impunity towards humanitarian activists. We all need to be prepared to act on short notice.
