Posted on 07/16/2006 by Eric J

Solidarity With Israel Rally
Wednesday July 19 Noon
Freedom Plaza (PENN & 14th NW)
Washington, DC

Not a lot of information at this time; I’ll try to update as I learn more.
WHAT: Solidarity With Israel Rally

WHEN: Wednesday, July 19, 2006, 12:00 p.m.

WHERE: Freedom Plaza in downtown Washington, DC. (Pennsylvania Avenue, between 13th and 14th streets, NW)

WHY: The State of Israel is fighting on two fronts, in Lebanon and Gaza, and under constant rocket attacks into populated civilian centers in cities and towns along its northern border. The local Jewish community will show its unity in support of its brothers and sisters in Israel with a rally that will include Jewish leaders, local elected officials and others.

WHO: The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington and the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington  (JCRC) are co-sponsoring this rally.

    Sure. They plan it for the day of my new job interview.

    I won’t be able to make it.

    I sympathize, Meryl. There’s a rally at the Federal Plaza in downtown Chicago tomorrow at noon, and there’s no way I can make it.

    I put the “ani ohev yisrael” sign (in Hebrew) back in my car window, since I won’t be able to make the DC rally either.
