Come out and protest Israel’s ongoing attacks on in Gaza, killing an injuring Palestinian civilians (including many children) and destroying infrastructure, homes, and livelihoods.

We will not stand for another Operation Cast Lead. Let us stand in solidarity with Gaza by calling on the US government to end its unwavering support of Israel’s human rights abuses. Demand the Obama administration put pressure on Israel to end its attacks on the people of Gaza and end the illegal blockade of Gaza.

**Signs will be provided. Any type of hate speech or signs offending any ethnic or religious group will not be allowed at this protest.**

March will begin at the Federal Plaza and end at Daley Center, where a rally will be held. (map: http://goo.gl/maps/OayZe)
