United with Israel’s IDF Chanukah Party!

From the website of Unitedwithisrael

United with Israel, in conjunction with an amazing organization called “Thank Israeli Soldiers“, is honored and privileged to be sponsoring our First Annual: IDF CHANUKAH PARTY This amazing event will take place on the 6th night of Chanukah: SUNDAY DECEMBER 25, 2011 Time: 5:00pm to 7:00pm Israel time (that’s 10:00am – 12:00 noon EST) We are planning to broadcast the event LIVE via streaming video on Facebook. More info about the live broadcast will be provided in the next few days. American and Israeli students and families will join together with Israeli soldiers and commanders on the ANATOT Military Base in Pisgat Zeev, on the outskirts of Jerusalem. The event will feature music, dancing, traditional Chanukah food, and of-course, the “Lighting of the Menorah”. This year, the soldiers will be lighting a very special Menorah that was created from the remains of kassam rockets that exploded in Israel. An Israeli artist has transformed these missiles of terror into something of unique beauty and light! The soldiers from ANATOT provide critical security to Israeli citizens, These are the men and women who man the checkpoints to inspect vehicles and individuals seeking to enter from Palestinian controlled areas. They are our front line against terror…They are outside all day and get very cold in the winter, just like we all would! A special ceremony will be held in honor of the soldiers in which ‘Warm Winter’ care packages from ‘United with Israel’ supporters will be given to the soldiers. Personal letters from admirers all around the world will be presented as an expression of gratitude and unity. If you are interested in attending, buses will leaving from a central location in Jerusalem. Due to security concerns, private vehicles will NOT be allowed on the base.
