PROTEST: THE BUTCHER OF GAZA IS COMING TO NEW YORK!
Tuesday,  March 17, 2009
5pm
Waldorf Astoria (50th & Park)
NYC

Subway:  6 to 51st St./E/V to Lexington Ave. 

Stand in Solidarity with  the Palestinian People of Gaza and in outrage 
against an elite fundraising  dinner ($1,000 a plate) for the Israeli 
Occupation 
Forces featuring its Chief of  Staff. Over 1,300 Palestinians were murdered in 
cold-blood in the recent attacks  on Gaza, and thousands more have died before 
and since due to the IOF's  genocidal blockade. This is the criminal behavior 
which the "Friends" of the IOF  want to raise more money to fund!

The dinner will feature Israeli  Occupation Forces Chief of Staff Gabi 
Ashkenazi who, along with other high  Zionist officials, is under investigation 
in 
Turkey, various European countries  and elsewhere for war crimes charges.

Since  the massacres in Gaza, many of these officials have been afraid to 
visit other  countries for fear of being arrested and/or charged with war 
crimes. 
A big  turnout Tuesday can be a small but significant step toward ending the 
impunity  they enjoy in the US!

While New Yorkers lose their jobs and homes in  increasing numbers every day, 
billions of our tax dollars go every year to fund  murder and oppression of 
Palestinians--but for the super-rich dining at the  Waldorf, even that's not 
enough!

While diners inside the Waldorf party to  raise money for murderers, an 
American citizen, Tristan Anderson lies in  critical condition from a tear gas 
canister (paid for with US tax dollars) fired  at him during a peaceful protest 
Friday in the West Bank. A fellow protestor  said  "He had a large hole in the 
front of his head, and his brain was  visible." (Ha'aretz, 3/14/2009).

This is the kind of cold-blooded murder  Palestinians face every day, and 
which diners at this event want to raise more  money for!
