Saturday 5th August Demo in Tel Aviv

Uri Avnery of Gush Shalom, hero of peace, prophet and leader and almost lone voice in the Wilderness, whose analysis keeps us all focused. And Rahel, his wife... one wonders how much worse they may be feeling than the rest of us, since they have seen all this so many times before. Uri in the Palmach, fighting in the War of Independence. Subsequently the first Israeli to meet with Arafat, in Tunis -- and even recently, meeting with Hamas parliamentarians to try to make progress. A former Member of Knesset and journalist, who edited and published HaOlam HaZeh ("This World"), in the days when there was an alternative media. He has to live to 120 for we have no one to replace him.
