Thousands of candles lit in Gaza vigil
Source: News.com Austrailia

MORE than 4000 candles in white paper bags have been lit on the front lawn outside Parliament House in Canberra as part of a vigil against the Israel-Palestine conflict.

Religious leaders from the Islamic, Catholic, Anglican and Uniting faiths were also present to show their solidarity and support for peace in the Middle East region.

The paper bags were carefully laid out across the lawn to spell out both English and Arabic translations of the words, "Save Gaza Now".

“We are lighting candles to bring about light, dissipate this evil of destruction.”

2. Nothing's wrong with the 'media'. They passed their own top-secret
resolution in favor of Israeli aggression like our House and Senate did in the open to the shame of us all.
