Thursday 16th @ 1pm

There will be a lunchtime demonstration at the Israeli Embassy, Ballsbridge (opposite Jury's), Dublin 4, on Thursday 16th between 1 and 2pm, to commemorate the 1982 massacre of Palestinian refugees at Sabra and Chatila camps by Lebanese militia allied and supported by Israel. The military incursion into Lebanon was planned and led by then Israeli Defence Minister Ariel Sharon, who was subsequently found responsible for the massacre.

The USA vetoed six separate United Nations resolutions between 1982 and 1983 condemning Israel's invasion of Lebanon. In 2002 the USA referred to Ariel Sharon as "a man of peace".

Please spread the word, and bring banners, flags etc.

Thank you,
