Thousands of supporters of Israel with blue and white flags arrived in the afternoon at Times Square in Manhattan, to express support for Israel. The demonstrators carried Israeli flags and banners in support of Israel troops in Gaza. Police and security forces were deployed for many morning hours in the square and surrounding streets - to secure the demonstration of support. The police also closed the streets around the square, and banned the pro-Palestinians protesters to approach the area.

Boston rallied on Saturday with several hundred people, carrying Israeli flags and signs that read "Israel has a right to defend itself." Yesterday came a few hundred more, some draped with Israeli flags, to the demonstration in Miami.

In London, an Israel support demonstration was held yesterday which took place a day after the biggest show of support ever known in London by Muslims held with the participation of 20 thousand people who marched from Premier toward the Israeli Embassy.

Show of support for Israel in London in front of the Embassy in Kensington participated in some five thousand people carrying Israeli flags and called for support of the army in front of the rocket attacks by Hamas.

Treatment was not required in a hospital, not arrests.

British MP Louise Ellman went out with a call to stop the violence: "I call our government and supporters of Israelis and Palestinians to promote a cease-fire," she said. Alan Aziz, director of the Zionist Federation, said that more than a half century passed since Britain had heard the sirens sound the alarm: "While terrorism is a historical fact for most Londoners, for Israelis it everyday reality. It is not possible to understand why Israel is attacking Gaza terrorists when one is unconscious to this reality. "Vivian Weinmann, president of the Jewish Board of Deputies of British, said that the protest was not intended to present a picture of Israel against the Palestinians but rather to the "extremism and violence on the part of Hamas, which is the real enemy."
