Hundreds rally near Galleria against Gaza attacks
Houston Chronicle ^ | 12-28-08 | JEANNIE KEVER

Hundreds of people lined the busiest intersection near the Galleria on Sunday, chanting and waving Palestinian flags to protest the Israeli bombing in Gaza.

"People are very upset, obviously. They are angry," said Said Fattouh, host of the radio talk show Arab Voices. "Nobody knows when it will stop."

The protest grew spontaneously, with several Arab-American organizations spreading the word. People said they heard about it through e-mail, text messages and telephone calls and traveled to the intersection of Westheimer and Post Oak to participate.

Members of the Houston Coalition for Justice Not War said they would hold a second protest at 4 p.m. on Monday at the Israeli Consulate.

This sounds like a fertile hunting ground for ICE, were they so disposed.

ahh lets see, someone draws a cartoon of them and they go on angry rampages burning and killing.

Israel finally responds to daily attacks and the arabs gn on rampages.

Where was their angry response at the Israeli children killed by rockets?

Well—that didn’t take long.

May their tongues cleave to the roofs of their mouths, and may Allah send a 1000 Birds of Paradise up their asses.

So what the heck else is new? Islamists and their sympathizers are angry from dawn 'til dusk, 24/7/365.

"Nobody knows when it will stop."

It will stop when Hamas stops firing rockets as Israeli civilians. When Palestinians start loving their children more than they hate Jews.

If I were there, I’d be rallying in favor of attacking the islamofascists.

I wonder what the scum think of the 3000 rockets over the last few years fired from Gaza or the Taliban preparing to blow up schools full of little girls.

Israel should bomb and strafe them every day for years. Its far better than a ground invasion. When Hamas has no means of repelling Israeli rocketing and shelling, then it will sue for peace. Or better yet, it can just die!
