This event is taking place on the unceded territories of the Musqueam,
Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples.

GAZA IS UNDER ATTACK! Over 98 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed -
including over 22 children - and many hundreds wounded at the hands of
Israeli missiles, bombs and fighter planes since Tuesday. While
Palestinians are dying, Stephen Harper has once again reiterated his
unconditional support of Israel, and MPs from across the Canadian political
spectrum have been silent and complicit as the massacres continue.

Protests are being organized in cities around the world
<http://samidoun.ca/2014/07/take-action-protests-around-the-world-respond-to-assault-on-palestine/>
to
respond to the ongoing assault on Palestine and the Palestinian people,
including the bombing of Gaza and the killing of over 81 Palestinians by
occupation forces; the murders of Palestinians (including 16-year-old
Muhammad Abu Khdeir, murdered brutally by Israeli settlers) and ongoing
settler and military brutality; the mass arrests of over 900; and the
raids, attacks, tear-gassing, invasions and closure that Palestinians are
being subjected to.

Join us in Vancouver to stand in solidarity, to chant and rally together
and break the silence and the deception being put forward by mainstream
media!
