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.

.”Sandmaggots are very upset, obviously. They are angry,” said Said Fattouh, host of the radio talk show Arab Voices.”

Let me guess, that radio show runs on the Houston Pacifica station (KPFT I think)

Mr. Ashrawi might once again know what an occupation is,

If he knew what an occupation was, and had one, he wouldn't have time for this nonsense. ;-)

The question is, how did hundreds of Palestinian terrorist loving jackasses get access to our nation in the first place? Our leaders in Washington need to have their heads examined for allowing this.

They should be grateful that Texans haven’t started playing “Cowboys & Muslims” yet.
