[lbo-talk] occupy Israeli territory in Toronto!

[Dorene Cornwell]

I know some people who did a similar occupation of the Israeli consulte in
NYC during the Israelie massacres in the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in
1982. As I recall, there was some announcement of limited easing of
conditions a few days after the occupation  of the consulate ended.

The Israeli territory point is because of the diplomatic principle that
diplomatic posts are equivalent to territory of the home country. In the
Israeli case it is also Jews exercising the Right of Return.
