I understand that not everyone can make it to one of the protest points for various reasons. But for those who can and will, know that those who can't are with you and praying for you. For those who simply can't, for whatever reason, please say Tehillim between 5 pm and 6 pm or 6 pm to 7 pm, whichever period you can cover, for the sake of those who are out there in the vicinity for the sake of Hashem's Name and His Holy City.
I'll be so glad when we can move on to speak of better things...
