Protest at Lebanon War Fundraiser
This Wednesday, war criminal and former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak will be speaking at a "Stand With Israel" dinner.
Barak is the man who allowed Ariel Sharon to make his provocative trip, with a thousand armed soldiers, to the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem in September of 2000, prompting the current Intifada. Joining Barak at the dinner will be Aliza Olmert, the wife of current Prime Minister, along with Major General Dan Harel, IDF Defense and Armed Forces Attaché. http://www.juf.org/iec/stand.asp
The Palestine Solidarity Group, Chicago ANSWER, Chicago Coalition Against War and Racism, Fight Back! Newspaper, Gay Liberation Network, and the International Solidarity Movement call for a peaceful protest of this pro-war fundraiser being held by Israel's supporters in Chicago.

These three are some of the Israeli leaders responsible for the close to 4,000 Palestinians that have been killed since that "visit" of Sharon's, and the main strategists of the month-long war that has killed over 800 Lebanese, injured almost 4,000, and left Lebanon devastated.
Join us to make it know that war criminals are not welcome in Chicago!
