In Commemoration of the 58th anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba
(Catastrophe) - Join the Coalition Against Israeli Apartheid (CAIA)
to:
>>>> PROTEST THE CONTINUING COLONIZATION OF PALESTINE!!! <<<
=======================================================================================================================================
Date: Monday May 15, 2006
Time: 4:00pm â 6:00pm
Location: The Lipa Green Building (4600 Bathurst Street - for TTC
directions see bottom of callout)
Join us on May 15 2006 anytime from 4-6pm at the Lipa Green Building
(4600 Bathurst) to commemorate the 58th anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba â the Catastrophe of 1948 that heralded the beginning of the Occupation. More than 450 Palestinian villages were destroyed and around 900,000 Palestinians driven from their homes, beginning a process of ethnic cleansing that continues to this day.
We will be protesting a settler-recruitment drive by Nefesh BâNefesh, a Zionist settlement organization that recruits Canadians
and facilitates their settlement in Palestine. These colonialist
activities should not be taking place in Canada and have no place in the 21st century! While Zionist colonization continues, Palestinian refugees violently expelled in 1948 and 1967 are refused their internationally recognised Right of Return by the Israeli apartheid
regime!
Nefesh BâNefesh was founded with the purpose of recruiting North Americans for settlement activities in Palestine. In 2002 Nefesh BâNefesh sponsored the largest simultaneous 'aliyah' (Hebrew for 'ascent' to the 'promised land') of settlers from North America to Israel. Incentives are being offered to Zionists to relocate to occupied arreas of Jerusalem and settlements deep in the West Bank, like Maaleh Adumim. Despite this a growing number of citizens of Jewish faith and/or cultural background are objecting to Zionist political pressure, refusing to be recruited to participate in the colonial occupation of Palestinian land. The false concept
of 'aliyah' is one of the many tools used to persuade North Americans and other citizens that they have a homeland in someone elseâs land!
THIS COLONIZATION OF PALESTINIAN LANDS MUST STOP!
This is not something happening in far away lands that we canât do anything about. It is happening right here in the city of Toronto and must not go unchallenged.

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all." [Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
