Activists picket pro-Israel banquet
Published Mar 16, 2007 7:52 PM
Determined demonstrators lined Mt. Vernon Place in Washington, D.C., on
March 12 to demand no U.S. aid to Israel in protest of the “Gala
Banquet” of the 2007 American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).
This event featured Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and
Vice-President Dick Cheney showing continued bi-partisan imperialist support
for the brutal genocidal occupation of Palestine. Chants targeted President
Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, calling out that “Occupation
is a crime from Iraq to Palestine.”
Anti-Zionist Orthodox Jews held banners condemning AIPAC as a danger for
Jews.
