PRESS CONFERENCE AND RALLY - SAY NO TO AIPAC; BLOCK THE BOMBS
On Thursday, August 21, at 10 a.m., the New Jersey chapter of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR-NJ) and American Muslims for Palestine-New Jersey will host a press conference outside U.S. Rep. Nellie Pou’s office to condemn her trip to Israel that was paid for by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). Pou’s District 9 includes the cities of Paterson and Clifton, which are home to one of the largest Palestinian communities in the country.
Congresswoman Nellie Pou just returned from an apartheid tour to Israel with AIPAC; meanwhile, Israel is forcing a famine and carpet bombing Gaza.
Her own district is facing a severe water crisis, with residents scrambling for safe drinking water. Instead of staying home to lead the response, she paraded with those perpetrating genocide. That is an insult to the people she swore to represent.
Tell Pou: SAY NO TO AIPAC; BLOCK THE BOMBS TO ISRAEL; STOP STARVING GAZA NOW!
