SATURDAY 17th JANUARY -- BOYCOTT ISRAEL DAY (DUBLIN)

The slaughter in Gaza - with more than 850 women, men and children dead and many more injured - has shown up the brutal and racist nature of the state of Israel. Just like apartheid regimes in the past, Israel has instigated such terror and injustice that it must be isolated internationally. A mass campaign to boycott Israeli goods can make the point forcefully and allow everyone to participate.
