Protest Against AIPAC On March 29

From Michael Munk:

Oregon's Israeli war crimes deniers--the state's branch of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee-- are having their annual money raiser on Sunday, March 29 at the Mittleman Jewish Community Center. Americans United for Palestinian Human Rights (AUPHR) asks Americans to protest
their $7 million daily subsidy to the IDF at 4pm outside the Center, 6651 SW Capitol Highway near the Hillsdale shopping center. Main fund raisers are rightwing ranter Peter Beinart and Pacific NW AIPAC director Zack Bodner.

Oregon's political leaders are almost all in the tank for the Israeli lobby. Last year, the AIPAC fund raiser was attended by these Democrats: Governor Ted Kulongoski, current US Senator Jeff Merkley, State Senators Peter Courtney (Salem), Vicki Walker (Eugene), Ben Westlund (Tumalo), and > State Reps. Mitch Greenlick (Portland) and Rep. Brad Witt (Clatskanie).
