Pro-judicial reform-goers after bus company cancels: ‘Jerusalem or bust!’

Those headed to Jerusalem for the “March of the Million” sought other last-minute transportation options.

An hour before more than half a dozen buses were slated to leave Karnei Shomron to transport pro-judicial reform Israelis to the “March of the Million” rally in Jerusalem, event organizers announced that the bus company had canceled. They recommended that attendees drive to the event instead.

One participant said that the scramble in the 11th hour did not put a damper on plans.

A message on a WhatsApp group warned that unknown saboteurs were posting erroneous information, like saying that shuttles would depart 45 minutes late, to decrease attendance.

“All shuttles leave as planned,” an organizer stated. “Only the shuttle manager in each area is authorized to issue a notice regarding a change.”

“They can’t stop us,” a protester told JNS. “We are going to Jerusalem to support judicial reform. Jerusalem or bust!”

The American mission to the U.N. “is doing our part every day to expose, confront and defeat this hatred,” said the U.S. diplomat.
The homes of two terrorists involved in the killing of civilians were mapped ahead of demolition.
The Israeli military also killed a Hamas deputy cell commander who doubled as a physician in Shifa Hospital.
The delegation cautioned Americans against travel to the area, citing “unpredictable” Iranian regime as region’s aggressor.
One hundred eleven lawmakers said the barrier erected by residents of Carmel blocks children from Umm Al-Kheir from reaching school, while Israeli officials say a safe alternative route exists.
“I think it’s important to send a message. We’re not going to tolerate hate,” Kathryn Barger, a member of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, told JNS.
