Protest against Israeli Occupation
Tomorrow (Tuesday 16th) 6.30pm Westin Hotel, College Green, D2
Each May 15th, Palestinians commemorate al-Naqba, the day of catastrophe. The Nakba marks a period of brutal terror, when 415 Palestinian villages were destroyed and almost one million refugees created as Palestinians were robbed of their land and forced into exile. The same event is celebrated in Israel in April as 'National Independence Day'.
Tomorrow (Tuesday 16th) Irish politicians, overseas diplomats and business representatives are invited to celebrate the occupation with the Israeli Ambassador at 6.30pm at the Westin Hotel (Westmoreland Street, D2).
Come along at 6.30 to show your opposition to Israeli state terrorism and to any Irish politician who supports it. Bring friends, workmates, banners and placards. For more information contact 087 7955013.
Vigil at Israeli Embassy tonight (Monday) 8.30
Short notice, but there is a vigil outside the Isaeli Embassy in Ballsbridge tonight at 8.30pm - also final reminder of anti-war committee meeting tonight in Bowe's (Fleet St.) at 7pm.
