Tel Aviv

They came from all over the country, Jews and Arabs, from the air-raid shelters of Haifa and Nazareth and the still safe neighborhoods of metropolitan Tel-Aviv.

The third demonstration against the war in Lebanon attracted much greater numbers than the first ones. While the first had 100 participants and the second reached already about 1000, this time (July 22) some 5000 took part.

“Olmert get out of Lebanon — the war is a disaster!” the protesters shouted. “We hall neither die nor kill - in the service of the USA” “Peretz, Peretz beware - in The Hague they are waiting for you! “Olmert, Olmert resign - you are not wanted anymore” “All the cabinet ministers are war criminals” and more.

More.
