Protest Israeli Consul’s Speech at Central Labor Council
Mon., April 29, 2002, 9:30 a.m.
31 W. 15 St. (btw. 5/6 aves.-–F/N/Q/R/V/4/5/6 to 14 St.)
On Monday morning, Israeli Consul General Alon Pinkas will be a “guest” speaker at the NYC Central Labor Council-—no Palestinian representative is invited.
At this critical time, help send a message that U.S. labor must stand with the Israeli peace movement—and with millions of other people around the world—against Israel’s brutal war on the Palestinians.

Subject: RE: URGENT: Protest Israeli Consul Monday at NYC Central Labor Council
Last night, New York City Labor Against the War (NYCLAW) called a protest for Monday, April 29, against the Israeli Consul’s speech at the NYC Central Labor Council.
This morning, the Jewish Labor Committee canceled the speech, stating that: “Due to scheduling conflicts, the Briefing on the Middle East Crisis and U.S. Policy, which was to have been held next Monday, April 29th, has been postponed. A new date for this meeting will be announced in the near
future.”
AS A RESULT, NYCLAW’S PROTEST WILL NOT TAKE PLACE MONDAY, AND WILL BE RESCHEDULED IF AND WHEN NECESSARY.
MEANWHILE, PLEASE SEND AN E-MAIL CALLING ON THE CLC TO OPPOSE ISRAEL’S WAR ON THE PALESTINIANS: nycaflcio@aol.com (cc:
