Im Tirtzu's main objectives focus on working towards a renewal of the Zionist discourse, Zionist thinking and Zionist ideology. A major portion of Im Tirtzu's efforts is devoted to combating the campaign of de-legitimization against the State of Israel and to providing responses to Post-Zionist and Anti-Zionist phenomena. 
    Yuval Granot, son of AFSI's founder Shmuel Katz, will be an added guest speaker. You may remember he was denied a visa in time to be with us at the Ze'ev Jabotinsky memorial on August 12. He now has a visa and is making a special trip to meet AFSI's members.

To date, Met director Peter Gelb has refused to cancel the opera despite strong opposition. All who object to terror should call Peter Gelb at 212-799-3100 x 2891 to insist that he cancel the opera.

    AFSI's Chizuk Mission to Israel - OCT. 26-NOV. 5, 2014
    This mission will underscore the Chizuk purpose which always seeks to give strength to our Israeli brothers and sisters where it is most needed.

Paid reservations by Sept. 19. Full payment - Oct. 15.  Itinerary: October/November 2014 http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2014/09/fwd-itinerary-for-afsi-chizuk-mission.html


    • TONIGHT through Monday, Sept. 1 - Lincoln Center Outdoor Free HD Opera - 6- 8 PM A coalition of concerned groups and citizens has been working all summer to persuade managing director of the Metropolitan Opera, Peter Gelb (212-799-3100x2891) to cancel the scheduled performances of the pro-terrorist, anti-Semitic opera, "The Death of Klinghoffer."  The PLO murder of Klinghoffer in 1985 because he was a Jew,  has now spread to a wave of anti-Semitism across Europe and the Middle East. The PLO terrorism has grown into Hamas, ISIS, and a host of terrorist organizations, so that we witness the beheading of an American by ISIS and the Islamic threat to bring that terrorism to America. In the face of that,  how can Peter Gelb ask us to attend an opera that promotes anti-Semitism and "sympathy for the terrorists"? Are we to "consider their humanity" when they cold-bloodedly sacrifice human beings on the altar of their fanatical beliefs? Please join with AFSI, ZOA, JCC Watch and all concerned citizens in distributing leaflets and flyers decrying this opera. We will be there every night, from 6-8 P.M., as people are arriving by the hundreds to attend the free outdoor HD performances, most of which start at 8 P.M. Look for leaders to be on the sidewalk outside Lincoln Center with flyers. Get your supply and help with the distribution. Speak to opera goers who might not understand the situation. Call AFSI for additional information: 212-828-2424; afsi@rcn.com. We seek everyone's participation.
