The following are some images from the rally for Israel in Seattle in front of the Federal Building, April 30th, 2002.  It was hard to say how large the crowd was, but I'd estimate easily over a thousand.  (A feat, given the unusual warm, sunny day when just about evryone would rather be elsewhere.)  It was hard to get through the crowd, it was so dense at times.

 

This poor fellow was having a difficult time, trying to wave a small Israeli flag while taking pictures -- the flag kept getting in fron t of the lens!

 

The protest across the street started very small (the two signs aren't even visible in this photo), and didn't grow much larger.



Yet more images of the rally...









A couple of radio talk-show hosts well known to Seattle Freepers, and who'd been encouraging their listeners to come, were also present.
