U.S. Jewish Lobby Rallies Behind
the Zionist Entity
WASHINGTON A number of
American Jewish and Christian-Zionist groups hold a rally Monday evening, July
17, in New York to show solidarity with the Zionist entity in its aggressions on
Lebanon and mobilize public opinion against the Lebanese resistance movement
Hizbullah.
The New York-based Conference
of Presidents, which comprises leaders of the Zionist organizations in the US,
will lead the Monday march near the Syrian mission in New York, home to the
largest Jewish community in the country.
Local Jewish agencies are also
scrambling to raise money and offer support for the Zionist entity.
Last week, United Jewish
Communities helped raise $1 million in just two hours to send to the Zionist
entity.
The American Jewish Joint
Distribution Committee, one of the largest American charities operating in the
Zionist entity, is also preparing special programs for Zionist children to keep
them out of danger.
An American Jewish Committee
leadership delegation also starts Tuesday, July 18, a two-day visit to the
Zionist entity to voice their solidarity with the Zionists.
"It is
often the case that in times of heightened violence in Israel, people do not
want to travel there," AJC Executive Director David A. Harris, who will
be leading the delegation, said in a statement posted on the Committee's
website.
Last week, hundreds of
Americans took to the streets of New York City, waving signs demanding the
administration to try its best to help release a Zionist soldier taken prisoner
by Palestinian resistance factions.
In Texas, a group of pastors
with Christian Zionist affiliations established the Christian Alliance to drum
up public support for the Zionist entity in what they said current trial.
the Zionist entity is now
launching two bloody offensives on the Gaza Strip and Lebanon after three of its
soldiers have been taken prisoners.
The Gaza onslaught, which
started on June 25, has killed so far up to 85 Palestinians, mostly children and
women.
And the number of people killed
in six days of Zionist strikes across Lebanon which kicked off on July 12
rose to at least 182 on Monday after a new wave of deadly air raids.
The onslaught has left Lebanon
virtually cut off from the outside world and much of its infrastructure in
tatters, with jets targeting roads, bridges and power stations.
Summit
The Judeo-Christian Alliance
(JCA), which promotes the so-called Christian Zionism in the US, will organize a
two-day conference starting Tuesday in Washington to rally public support for
the Zionist entity in its current war with Hizbullah.
The Washington/the Zionist
entity Summit is expected to bring together up to 35,000 pro-Israel people,
mostly Jews and evangelicals, the alliance said.
JCA members are also planning
meetings with Congressmen to push the Bush administration toward stronger
support for the Zionist entity.
Chief among the attendees is
Rev. John C. Hagee, who said that he would demand the Bush administration to
honor its promises and abide by the Bible and moral values in defending the
Zionist entity to the utmost.
"There's
a new Hitler in the Middle East. The only way he will be stopped will be by a
preemptive military strike in Iran," he said in recent statements,
referring to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
The American Israel Public
Affairs Committee, the most powerful lobby in Washington, expressed its thanks
to Rev. Hagee for demonstrating "the depth and breadth of
American support" for the Zionist entity.
The American Jewish Committee
expressed its deep appreciation of the Bush Administration last week for
wielding its veto power at a UN Security Council session on the situation in the
Palestinian territories.
Ever since the flare up of
Zionist strikes against Lebanon six days ago, President George W. Bush has
repeatedly reaffirmed the Zionist entity's so-called
"every right to defend itself."
