The Alliance for Eretz Yisrael is organizing the worldwide effort. The Alliance describes itself as a "worldwide coalition of concerned organizations and prominent individuals working to stop the dismemberment of the Land of Israel and the surrender of Israel’s government to Islamic terrorism."
Rallies will be held almost simultaneously in Washington, D.C., Chicago, Amsterdam, Antwerp, Melbourne, Montreal, Miami, Los Angeles, Denver, Philadelphia and many other places. For a full list, and information on each rally, see "http://www.telavivrally.com/who.php"
The rally in Paris has been postponed. In New York City, the anti-disengagement rally will be held on Tuesday at Times Square from noon until 2 PM . The protest will feature Chief Rabbi of Efrat Shlomo Riskin, Jewish Gaza leader Rachel Saperstein, Israeli MKs Benny Elon and Aryeh Eldad, New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind, ZOA President Morton A. Klein, and other rabbis and leaders. Hassidic music stars Mordechai Ben-David and Avraham Fried will sing for the crowd.
David Romanoff, organizer of the Worldwide Solidarity Rally gatherings, says that the purpose of the mass event is "to educate people about the true details of the so-called 'disengagement plan,' why it is dangerous, and why the United States and others should not support an effort that deprives people of their G-d-endowed rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.'... We hope to encourage Americans to contact the media, their lawmakers and President Bush himself and get them all to stop supporting the 'disengagement plan' and ask that Israel delay or shelve the plan entirely. There is no excuse for America to support this plan. To quote the brilliant Jerusalem Post columnist Caroline Glick, 'Friends don't let friends drive drunk.'"
Another grassroots effort against the unilateral retreat from Gaza and the northern Shomron is that of on-line petitions. At least three of them expressing total opposition to the plan are currently gathering signatures on the internet. A plea to Prime Minister Sharon has received close to 1,500 signatures, and a letter to U.S. President George Bush has received almost that much. A general declaration by Women in Green against the expulsion plan, with an unknown amount of signatures, can be signed here.
