No Blank Check for Israel Rally and Candlelight Procession Saturday January 19th 2013

(Graphic by Rachele Richards Design/@DocR0cket)

I ran into this fabulous graphic over the weekend advertising the No Blank Check for Israel rally and candlelight procession to the White House this Saturday. Turns out illustrator and designer Rachele Richards just made it on her own without any contact or prompting from the sponsors of the event. Impressed, I contacted Richards and she wrote back "I did indeed create that graphic to share around the internet. I just slapped it together." Rachele plans on attending the rally and live tweeting the event @DocR0cket.

Thanks Rachele.

If you have not yet signed the Obama Letter please do so today.

Please note: In October 2012, fifteen church leaders bravely spoke
out in a letter to Congress--stating a principle that should be obvious:
Israel, the biggest long-term recipient of US aid,
should not be above the law. Download the letter here (4-page pdf):
