Pro-Israel demonstration in Brussels

A rally in support of Israel was held in front of the Israeli embassy in Brussels on Tuesday evening. French-speaking state broadcaster RTBF estimated some 1,500 participants; Dutch-speaking state broadcaster VRT saw 1,000 participants; Belgian police counted only 500 people, but my own sources told me there were 1,800 participants. The demonstration was very peaceful and quiet, with official speeches by the Israeli ambassador and by Henri Gutman from the committee of Jewish organisations. Israeli and Belgian flags were waved, as well as a flag of the Dutch chapter of "Christians for Israel". The only slogan seen: "Hezbollah is a threat to peace". What an understatement.
