Weberman from the Michael-Ann Russell Jewish Community Center for their 
tireless efforts in making this rally a giant success. The event 
included a variety of speakers from different religious denominations, 
parochial schools, youth groups and community organizations.
  The rally provided an opportunity for folks to voice their support 
for the State of Israel and gave them specific information on the 
different ways that they can help both of our countries fight the 
international war on terrorism.
  I want to especially thank those organizers of the Interfaith 
Solidarity with Israel rally for uniting our community in its support 
for this embattled country.
