from: William Hughes
On June 6, 2009, a spirited solidarity rally in support of the people of Occupied Gaza was staged by human rights activists in front of the Israeli Embassy, in Washington, D.C. The protest action demanded: “End the Siege of Gaza!” June 6th marks the 42nd anniversary of the Israeli “seizure of Gaza.” The demonstration was sponsored by the ANSWER Coalition, among other groups.
