A huge first step for J Street Local!
J Street Supporter --
Wow - last night's J Street Local kickoff events were amazing!
I attended the New York City event, and it was packed to the gills with over 300 new and veteran activists ready to fight for change.
J Street Local organizers told me this morning that nearly 2,000 people turned out in 21 cities to fight for a new direction on American politics when it comes to Israel and the Middle East - including over 200 in Philadelphia, Boston, and San Francisco.
That makes what we did last night the largest single showing EVER for the pro-Israel, pro-peace movement. We really did take a huge first step forward together - invigorating our local presence with new energy and strength.
2,000?
Two thousand?
Are they crazy to call that the "largest"?
That's all?
OMG.
Self-delusional is an understatement.
They're all BS.

If you read it carefully, you'll notice that "largest" refers to the J Street "showing"--it's the largest event THEY'VE every had. 2,000 people in 21 cities doesn't seem like much of a statement of momentum and support....
