The pro-Palestinian terrorist sympathizers carried no American flags whatsoever. Their contingent was composed of the usual suspects, ANSWER, CAIR, and the assortment of other pro-Islamofascist lobby groups and apologists for terrorism. Their message was anti-American and anti-Israel.
The counter-rally was organized by StandWithUs.com. This counter rally turned out to also be an anti-terrorism rally with lots of American flags and Israeli flags. Among this group were also a number of Republicans, Protest Warriors and a few Freepers as well.
The numbers for both crowds were approximatley the same; estimate of 125-150 people for both sides.
Some of the PLO terrorist appeasers were quite angry when they saw the Protest Warrior sign that I brought along ("Islam...Religion of Peace") One PLO "chick" called my sign disgusting. I told her that I agreed with her because the acts that are commited in the name of Islam are quite disgusting. She was also baffled that I was wearing my t-shirt that was printed in big letters "Infidel" in both English and Arabic. I told her that I was proud to be an infidel and I was quite happy to walk around with a shirt identifying me as such (hey what the heck...they already hate me anyways; might as well make it official!) She then demanded that I take my sign down as I was waiting to cross the street to join the good guys. I reminded her that she was in America and that I would carry my sign anywhere I damn well pleased. Freedom of speech always trumps sharia.
Finally, the AP news report inplied that we patriots who rallied against terrorism were carrying al-Qaida signs. You will see from some of the pictures posted later on that these signs were the Protest Warrior signs and a couple of anti-terrorism YAF signs that read "Never Forget." AP has some pretty stupid reporters if they think that our signs were "al-Qaida" signs. The fake rocket used by our pro-Israel supporters also had a message of anti-terrorism. You will see this in the photos below as well.
Anyways...I'll post some of the photos from the Friday rally at Westwood in this blog posting.

Anti-Israel protest FRIDAY July 7 - WE ARE COUNTER-PROTESTING! YOU ARE NEEDED IN L.A.
I want an Infidel tshirt..where can I get one?
Count me in with the Israel supporters. The pro-Palestinian crowd are a bunch of haters and hypocrites. They do nothing but whine about the evil Israelies, while openly supporting terrorist killers. Their supposed pleas to humanity are laughable, in view of what they support.

"Olmert Threatens 'Long War' To Free Israeli Soldier Held In Gaza"
and...
"He said the operation was not "on a timetable". "We're talking about a long war," he said, as the army's southern region commander threatened to pound Palestinian militants for "months"."
Works for me...
Why didn't the pro-Israel side chuck some eggs or feces at that Palestinian "Right to Return" banner?

The Worst Defense (David Horowitz)
************* excerpt ***********************
It is the worst possible defense because it violates the very foundation of our liberties, the social contract on which all our liberties depend.
We live in a democracy. That means we live under rules for adjudicating our differences both in peacetime and in war. Before all the laws that make us who we are is the primary fact that we are nation of laws. Breaking the law does not protect the law. Breaking national security laws betrays the nation; it does not defend it.
The government leakers who provided the Times with the information that won its reporter a Pulitzer prize, are conducting a war against the very system the Times is claiming to defend. This is an unacceptable way to dissent from national policy, and no excuse can be offered for it. It is an act of violence against our democracy and the Constitution which governs it.
