Protest in Boston tomorrow, Wednesday

This is an e-mail from a fellow Harvard classmate:

Michel Aoun's party probably has the best updating website we've found
(www.tayyar.org)- although most of it is in Arabic, it is updated every
few
minutes. Even though we have mixed feelings about Aoun's politics, his
organization does seem to be one of the few that is mobilizing for
relief
efforts and worldwide demonstrations - we'll be joining a demonstration
in
Boston tomorrow Wednesday July 20 4-7 in front of the Gibran Khalil
Gibran
statue at Copley.

I am thinking about you and remembering all that is sweet and beautiful
about Lebanon! My husband is absolutely sick over how is country is
being
destroyed, and we are so disgusted (but unfortunately not surprised)
that
our government is the major obstacle to getting a cease-fire. Your
blog is
hopefully helping to educate people about what is happening on the
ground.
