Protesting a synagogue. Really, JVP. Can you get any lower?
JVP's announcement follows
Join
Baltimore Jewish Voice for Peace for a picket of the Friends of the
Israel Defense Forces (FIDF), which is holding a fundraising gala on
Tuesday, October 29 at Chizuk Amuno Congregation in Pikesville.
FIDF initiates and helps support educational, social, cultural and recreational programs and facilities for Israeli soldiers. They financially support the IDF, which is the chief enforcement arm of Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestine.
The IDF's violations of Palestinian human rights are notorious and well documented. While Israel shuts down Palestinian and international humanitarian aid organizations, more land and resources are stolen in the West Bank, Gaza is under siege, and the Israeli Knesset votes to forcibly relocate tens of thousands of Bedouin citizens of Israel from their traditional lands. All the while, Israeli soldiers kill Palestinian civilians.
When: Tuesday October 29, 5:00 PM
Where: 8100 Stevenson Road, Pikesville, Maryland
Directions: From Baltimore/East, take I-695 west towards Pikesville. Take exit 21: Stevenson Road. Turn right at the stop sign onto Stevenson Road and Chizuk Amuno is immediately on the left. From Columbia/West, take I-695 east towards Towson. Take exit 21: Park Heights Avenue/ Stevenson Road. Cross Park Heights Avenue to the service road that parallels I-695 (Brooks Robinson Drive). Proceed to the next light, Stevenson Road. Turn left onto Stevenson Road. Turn left into the Chizuk Amuno entrance.

Considering the local protest of FIDF resulted in 3 arrests, the police need to be alerted.
