November 16, 2012
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Thousands of Angelenos, Jews and non-Jews alike, who are committed to a safe, secure, and prosperous Israel will join in a solidarity rally while the State of Israel is under attack by a barrage of rockets launched by Hamas into Israel.
The rally is scheduled for Sunday November 18 at 1:00PM in front of the Los Angeles Federal Building located at 11000 Wilshire Blvd in Los Angeles (the corner of Wilshire Blvd and Veteran Ave).
WHAT: Community-wide rally in front of the
Los Angeles Federal Building to
express support and solidarity for
Israel.
WHEN: Sunday November 18, 2012
1:00PM
WHERE: In front of the Los Angeles Federal
Building
11000 Wilshire Blvd
Los Angeles (corner of Wilshire Blvd
and Veteran Ave)
WHY: Over the past week, the Palestinian
terrorist groups in Hamas-controlled
Gaza have fired hundreds of rockets
into Israel. Over one million
Israelis - around one-eighth of the
Israeli population - have been
endangered and forced to repeatedly
seek safety in bomb shelters. Schools
have been closed. There has been a
recent history of 12,000 rockets
launched into Israel during the last
12 years. To finally stem these
attacks, Israel has launched
Operation Pillar of Defense to root
out terrorist groups in Gaza. We are
uniting as one community to express
our solidarity for Israel and its
right to defend itself and protect
its citizens. The rally is being
organized by StandWithUS, Zionist
Organization of America (ZOA) and the
Israeli Leadership Council (ILC).
