UPDATE: ATTENTION CHICAGO! GO! GO! GO! (hat tip Cynthia)

Chicago Rally to Support Israel
Date: Thu, 1 Jan 2009 16:24:00 -0500
Please join CAMERA, Stand With Us and Club1948 in showing support for Israelis in this time of crisis.

Date: Friday, January 2, 2009
Time: 2:00pm - 4:00pm
Location: ISRAELI CONSULATE BUILDING, 111 E Wacker Dr, Chicago, IL

Anti-Israel demonstrators are expected to appear, and we want to let Chicago know that while Israel truly stands for peace, just like the United States it must also defend itself against terrorist attacks. There will probably be press at the event. Therefore, please see the following talking points. If you are interviewed, the most effective way to help Israel is to make one of these points. Keep it short and polite.
