TEL AVIV, Aug 11: At least 200,000 opponents of next week’s Gaza Strip pullout staged a giant rally on Thursday. Addressing the enormous crowd overflowing from central Tel Aviv’s landmark Rabin Square, settler leaders delivered instructions on how to try to disrupt the uprooting of all the Gaza settlers, set to begin on Aug 17.
“We will be physically there at the Kissufim crossing (between the Gaza settlements and Israel) from Monday and we will oppose the withdrawal without violence,” Bentzi Liberman, leader of the main settlers lobby, told the crowd.—AFP
