hundreds come to commemorate 42 years of the occupation of Gaza- Tel Aviv, June 6-part 2

All of these photos and translations are much appreciated for those of us who never have and never will go to Palestine, including Historic Palestina also known as Israel. It is horrifying that anyone thinks that millionaire, warmonger, death penalty promoter Barack Obama has anything to offer anyone except the capitalist class. He and his rotten Democratic Party are just as staunchly pro-Israel as the Republican Party. Every single one of his appointments, starting with his first, chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, who fought in the Israeli army and last I heard, has dual citizenship, to all the rest, are staunchly pro-Israel. MY DEAR COMRADES: We need to see signs that say something like: SUPPORT THE BOYCOTT, DIVEST, SANCTIONS MOVEMENT; RETURN US TAX DOLLARS TO AMERICAN WORKINGCLASS; ABOLISH AMERICAN COLONIZATION PROJECT CALLED ISRAELI SETTLEMENTS; ABOLISH US IMPERIALISM IN MIDDLE EAST; SEPARATE CHURCH AND STATE; SCIENCE MEANS KNOWLEDGE; RELIGION IS SUPERSTITION.

For those who are unaware, we spend $6 billion a year to pay for Israel's existence so it can be a US military base in the Middle East to protect US oil profits. Israel WOULD NOT EXIST IN ITS PRESENT FORM WITHOUT AMERICAN TAX DOLLARS. Israel is also a theocracy with no separation of church and state, and as I understand it, marriage and divorce are handled by the religion.

Thank you for the photos; they were a real eye opener. It helps us all to see resistance to the US fascist theocratic puppet fiefdom called Israel.

Only 20 people showed up in San Francisco, for a rally that was promoted from 12- 4. By 2, everyone had all but drifted away.
