Antiwar Demonstrations

Well the press have mentioned the anti-war demonstrations in Israel - even if it is to dismiss them as small and irrelevant. In fact while the demonstrations in Tel Aviv have remained at about the same size as before, they are spreading to other towns, and to other locations in Tel Aviv itself, according to this report in the Malaysia Sun.
