Why?

This vigil was started on Friday 9th January, as part of the many protests against the war crimes and atrocities committed against Gaza. We are standing outside the Israeli embassy because it is the symbol of the Israeli military and their political masters. Come and join us by calling 020 8904 4222 or email a mesage of support for the blog to info@ihrc.org. Amongst the many supporters of the vigil are FOSIS (the Federation of Students' Islamic Societies) and IJAN (International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network).

Day 5 - afternoon

A middle age man, whose origins I could not guess, approached me today and handed me £20 for IHRC. He apologised for not being able to attend the vigil.

A little after this, an elderly Caucasian women approach our vigil. She stopped by the candles and bowled her head. Initially intend on approaching her, I changed my mind after realising she was deep in prayer. Seeing this women standing in the middle of Kensington High Street with her head down, eyes closed and deep in prayer touched me deeply, and gave me a renewed sense of hope.
