There is no purpose in stating solidarity other <br />than to boast power --or to please a group of people --not all citizens of Santa Ana want solidarity with Palestine -it's really a <br />matter of dealing with a loud group and having the courage to say no. I know this message will be ignored, but my friends (of the <br />jewish faith) said that non-jewish friends are not sticking up for them, so I'm trying to do it now. The Hamas attack on Oct 7 that <br />started this was horrible and many lives gone. While the Hamas-Israel war needs to be over and peace reached, it does not help <br />if Cities in the US start a war among its own citizens over international causes. Look how much hate is going on now in the US <br />against people ofjewish faith -Is it worth it to you to add fuel to the fire? I hope not. Best regards, <br />1 <br />
