1) STOP THE WAR NEEDS YOUR HELP URGENLY

GAZA FLOTILLA PROTEST MARCH SATURDAY 5 JUNE
ASSEMBLE DOWNING STREET 1.30PM
MARCH TO ISRAELI EMBASSY

We have only a few days to mobilise for Saturday's GAZA FLOTILLA
PROTEST MARCH and we need your help urgently.

When Stop the War organised emergency demonstrations during
Israel's Gaza onslaught in January 2009, which killed 1400
Palestinians, and in July 2006, when Israel launched full scale
war on Lebanon, the response of our supporters was phenomenal,
and we were able, within a few days, to organise two of the
largest demonstrations in recent years.

We urgently need your help now to ensure that we get the biggest
turnout possible on Saturday to reflect the widespread outrage at
Israel's heinous crimes in attacking the Gaza flotilla.

*************************************
2) VOLUNTEERS NEEDED NOW

We urgently need vounteers to help in Stop the War's national
office, which is close to London's Victoria Station. We have
numerous tasks to cover in preparing for Saturday's
demonstration. If you have any time at all this week to help,
whether it's just a few hours or more, please contact us now:
EMAIL: office@stopwar.org.uk

*************************************
3) EMERGENCY FUNDS NEEDED NOW

Stop the War's finances are stretched to the limit. Funding the
demonstration and other emergency actions on top of our usual
office costs has stretched our finances to the limit.

We desperately need funding now to ensure we can meet the needs
of mobilising the largest possible turnout on Saturday. Please
make a donation of whatever sum you can afford.

Your contribution can make a big difference. Please rush your
donation to Stop the War now:

4) A TURNING POINT FOR GAZA

This week could be a turning point for the people of Gaza, if our
mealy-mouthed leaders, not least the British government, are
forced by public pressure to take action against Israel, which
has been allowed for too long to terrorise Palestinians and
violate countless international laws with impunity.

Please contribute in any way you can to building this pressure,
by spreading the word about Saturday's demonstration, by
vounteering if you have the time and by rushing to us your
donation towards our campaign fund.
