Community leaders, members, clergy and students take a stance against unjust forms of               
 “Collective Punishment of Palestinians.”
Bombing of Gaza occurs as Palestinians mourn over the death of Mohammed Abu Khudair, a 16 year old boy, burned alive; further occurrences show an American citizen brutally beaten for no cause.  
What: Solidarity rally
Where: Old State House Hartford (facing Market St.)  
When: 4:30 pm, Monday July 8th

On June 30th three Israeli teens were found dead in the West Bank, in response to this tragedy the Israeli government consistently bombs Gaza, arrests 400 Palestinians, kidnaps and tortures children. This form of collective punishment is unacceptable! CT human rights activists stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people who yearn for justice.
Ongoing investigation has found no substantial proof linking Palestinian involvement to deaths of three Israeli teens; but the Israeli government continues to blame the whole of Palestine by their ruthless actions.
Further, it is important to point out, America’s deep involvement in the destruction of Palestine. Millions of American tax payers, unknowingly fund, Israeli defense forces that ravage the lives of Palestinians.
Join us, behind the old state house Monday June 8th at 4:30 pm to demand an end to violence in Palestine! We say stop the indiscriminate collective punishment against Palestinians. Stop all US funding to Israel now!
