DEMONSTRATION WITH STREET THEATER AGAINST ISRAEL'S PLANS TO DESTROY YITZHAR YESHIVA
Date/Time: MONDAY, JUNE 28, NOON-2 P.M.,
Venue: ISRAELI CONSULATE, 2ND AVE. & 42ND ST.


AFSI is leading a protest, Monday, June 28, noon to 2 PM, at the Israeli Consulate, Second Avenue and 42nd Street, NYC, against Israeli government plans to destroy the Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva in Yitzhar, Israel.

To dramatize the disgraceful decision on the part of the Israeli government to destroy the Yeshiva on July 4, a flat-truck and bulldozer will be driven south on Second Ave. to 42nd Street, in front of the Israeli Consulate.

The bulldozer will be moving slowly around the block and passing in front of the Consulate as often as possible, depending on traffic, etc. Signs and banners will emphasize that NEVER AGAIN must Israel take destructive action against its own Jews as it did five years ago in Gush Katif. BULL-DOZING Jewish schools to appease Israel's enemies defies reason and morality.

Participating organizations are urged to notify their members to join in the protest. Those who wish may walk along the sidewalk carrying their signs, following the bulldozer on its path and spreading the message. It is essential that the evil demolition decree be revoked.
