The biggest demonstration against the war held in Israel until now took place on 5 August, 2006, in the heart of downtown Tel-Aviv, an area that is considered especially right-wing. Close to 10,000 demonstrators from all over the country, among them many Arab citizens, marched from Ben-Zion Boulevard, along King George Street, to Magen David Square. There, at the entrance to the Carmel market, a stage was set up. The thousands that did not find place in the square flowed over into Nahlat Binyamin and the other neighboring streets.
Did you know there was a very vibrant peace activist movement in Israel? In fact, if you have some spare cash lying around, one of the best places you can put it now is in with the Refuser Solidarity Network. These brave women and men are refusing to attack Lebanon and refusing to further subdue the Palestinian people. They are copping a hell of a lot of flak for their courage. Please consider chucking in a few shekels, or at least reading their site to see what they're about.
