Protesters rally in San Francisco to denounce Mideast violence
2006-07-16
"Dozens" wouldn't seem to be the same International ANSWER demonstration that was held on July 13th in support of Hamas.
SAN FRANCISCO Dozens of protesters carrying banners and Lebanese flags rallied at City Hall on Saturday, condemning Israel's attacks on targets in Lebanon as barbaric and illegal. "We're trying to raise some awareness with the American public about what's going on," said Mohamad Charafeddine, a Stanford University doctoral student who organized the protest. "It's unacceptable."

About 50 people, mostly members of the Bay Area's Lebanese community, took part in the demonstration. Charafeddine, who is from Lebanon, said more actions would be organized if the attacks continue. "We hope the aggression will stop, but if it continues it's the least we can do," he said. "What's going on is against international law."

#6  I agree, pull their visa's. Send them packing to Lebanon to live with their brothers. Hope the missles dont get ya. The problem has been us all along. We have effectively taken a knife to a gun fight with our measured approach. We need to identify that they are at total war and we shpould respond appropriatly, with total war. Why should I care one bit about the so called oppressed Muzzies when they continually blow up busses full of women and kids. We have allowed this rat to infest our world for too long and now we must destroy them, all of them, hezbullah, hammas, Iran, and all the others that support them.

#1  Hizballah: a globalisation success story.

Sydney has a nice fat slab of Hizballah living in the suburbs of the southwest notably lakemba, punchbowl and congregating at Lakemba Mosque.

Remember the Cronulla beach riot? Followed by 5 nights of reprisal rioting streets of cars smashed and shots fired at christmas carollers at a school? Random people beaten in the streets and a convoy of 50 cars heading out from Lakemba mosque to beach suburbs headed by one flying the lebanese flag? The text messages stirring up violence from the 'lions of lebanon'?

Bob Carr presided over the wholesale import of Hizballah into Sydney.

Were I in areas with large jewish populations like Bondi, Rose Bay and Bellevue Hill, (in Sydney's east) I'd be carefully avoiding synagogues, transport hubs and large shopping centres in case the Lions of Lebanon don't just get on a plane and go home to fight but take it to the Sydney streets.
