URGENT CALL FOR DEMONSTRATION

Sunday 16 July, 11am, gathering at Peel and René-Lévèsque, Montréal

In the past 96 hours, the Israeli assault has killed 97 civilians in Lebanon, tens of whom were children. There have been 266 injuries.

Due to the latest escalation and attacks that Israel has been waging against Lebanese civilians, targeting people in their homes and damaging the vital infrastructure that supports their daily lives (roads, institutions, bridges, and airports), you are asked to join in the demonstration to protest the Israeli atrocities and crimes that are being committed against unarmed innocent civilians.

Major concerns:

  1. We call on the Canadian government to issue a stern warning to Israel to halt its military assault against Lebanon and to desist from any plans to invade the country.
  2. We strongly condemn the pro-Israel position of the Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
  3. We call on the Canadian government to make plans to evacuate theirnationals from Lebanon.

Salaamu alaikum to all,

On Wednesday, there will be a demonstration to protest Israel’s reaction to the kidnapping of two Israeli soldiers. This is not a demonstration of supporting Hezbollah or not. The simple motive behind this is to show solidarity of all Muslims. In six days, over 214 innocent Lebanese civilians have been killed. Amongst those are Muslims and Christians, Shias and Sunnis. This has to stop. We need to show the world at this trying time, that we are united as one and will not rest until Israel stops killing innocent civilians. This evening when we sit with our families eating our warm dinners, think of the child who lost his mother tonight. Think of the parents who have to flee their homes only to come back and see them in rubble. Let’s do our part! May Allah guide all of us on the right path.

Date July 19th 2006
Time: 20h we will gather at Place Jacques Cartier
20h 30 construction of the human chain will begin at oldport on the day of the USA fire works
