Black Umbrella Protest
Arutzsheva:
A demonstration against Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's transfer plan for the Jews of Judea and Samaria is set for 18:00 opposite the US Consulate on Jerusalem’s Agron Street, timed to coincide with the meeting between Olmert and President George W. Bush. The meeting is Olmert’s first in the White House since being elected to office. Participants in the protest are being requested to bring black umbrellas as a reminder of Britain’s Neville Chamberlain, who returned from his 1939 meeting with Adolph Hitler and boasted of bringing peace “in our generation”, after giving ceding part of Czechoslovakia to its Nazi German neighbor.
