Illegal alien supporters want to Boycott AgriProcessors
Illegal alien supporters want to Boycott AgriProcessors, and Rally in Postville.
Please forward to all those great patriots in the Iowa area. So they can counter the open border commies. Also notice the e-mail addresses of those who are in favor of open borders and no enforcement. Many of those addresses are from hispanic media outlets.

JCUA launches Relief Campaign to help Postville families
JCUA has launched a relief campaign to help provide food, housing and
legal assistance for some 170 families -- 500 people, mostly children!
-- who are thousands of miles from home with no resources and an
uncertain future.
These are the people left helpless after their sole wage-earners were
rounded up by immigration officials in the May 12 raid at
AgriProcessors kosher meatpacking plant in Postville, Iowa.
AgriProcessors is the nation's largest kosher slaughterhouse. It
produces 60 percent of the kosher meat and 40 percent of the kosher
poultry consumed in this country. The company has received multiple
federal and state citations for workplace safety and health violations
-- resulting in amputations, broken bones, eye injuries and hearing
loss.
(Three hundred workers remain imprisoned since the May 12 raid.
Others, mainly women with small children, were released with ankle
bracelets that allow federal officials to track their whereabouts at
all times.)
These are people struggling to provide for themselves and their
families. Following the raid, they live with fear and uncertainty,
unable to find jobs that would pay for even basic necessities as they
wait to learn their fate -- or the fate of their loved one who
languishes in prison.
With 20 percent of Postville's population arrested in the raid -- and
another 40 percent made up of other immigrant workers at the company
-- local charities are unable to keep up with the continuing need.
Please stand with us -- as Jewish individuals outraged by the abuse
and exploitation of society's most vulnerable members -- in
responding to the critical needs of these families who have nowhere
else to turn. Click here to help.

Postville raid prompts immigration reform rally
July 15, 2008
DES MOINES, Iowa - Immigration reform advocates and religious leaders
from across the Midwest are planning a rally in northeast Iowa nearly
two months after a raid at a kosher meatpacking plant in Postville
ended in nearly 400 arrests.
The rally, scheduled for July 27, was organized by Jewish and Catholic
groups from Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota. It is expected to draw
hundreds of people to the town of about 2,200 residents.
Organizers are using the raid at the Agriprocessors Inc. plant on May
12 as an example of what's wrong with the nation's Immigration laws.
Federal officials have called it the largest single Immigration raid
in the nation's history.
"Our national Immigration policies are tearing apart and hurting
hardworking, taxpaying people who are just here trying to support
their families," said Tom Walsh, with the Jewish Council on Urban
Affairs, a Chicago-based group helping organize the rally.
He said more 175 families in Postville, including more than 500
children, "just lost not only their mother or father, but in many
cases, the sole breadwinner for their homes."
Authorities said some undocumented workers who were sole caregivers
for children were allowed to return home with ankle bracelets that
monitor their movement. However, immigrants reform advocates claimed
those parents aren't able to find work and must rely on handouts from
local churches and other groups.
"This enforcement-only approach creates massive human suffering,
separation of families and economic dislocation," Gideon Aronoff, CEO
of the New York-based Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, said during a
conference call with reporters earlier this month.
Since the raid, allegations have arisen of unsafe conditions, child
labor violations and low-paid workers abused by supervisors at
Agriprocessors. Before the raid, the company produced about half of
the nation's kosher beef and 40 percent of its kosher chicken.
Most of the 389 workers arrested were charged with using false
identification or incorrect Social Security numbers. Two plant
supervisors were later charged with aiding and abetting the possession
and use of fraudulent identification.
An Agriprocessors spokesman didn't immediately respond to a request
for a comment.
An organization of American Orthodox Jews, Uri L'Tzedek, had called
for a boycott of any businesses that sold the company's meat. It
backed off the boycott earlier this month after Agriprocessors hired a
former federal prosecutor as chief compliance officer.
Agriprocessors, started by Aaron Rubashkin, a Hassidic Jew from New
York, has recently been criticized in both mainstream and Jewish
publications. The company has said little about the raid or its
aftermath, but allegations have arisen that its public relations firm
faked comments on an Internet blog that has been critical of
Agriprocessors.
There also was an outcry after someone bought ads in Guatemala City
newspapers that sought workers, noting an "excellent job opportunity
in the United States meat processing plant in Postville, Iowa."
Company officials denied they had anything to do with the ads.
The groups planning the Immigration reform rally this month in
Postville are St. Bridget's Catholic Church in Postville, Jewish
Community Action of St. Paul, Minn., and the Jewish Council on Urban
Affairs of Chicago. They promised testimony from people directly
affected by the raid, as well as talk about Immigration reform and
workers' rights.
"This is a call for justice. This is a call to be faithful to our
American and religious values," Sister Mary McCauley with St.
Bridget's Catholic Church said in a statement. "This is a call to
stand in solidarity with our Hispanic brothers and sisters."
Organizers are worried that the rally could draw too many supporters,
and are asking that anyone planning to attend register with their
groups.
"It's so clear that the town has been devastated by the raid and they
are reeling and they are trying to cope with it and trying to help the
families cope with it," said Jane Ramsey, executive director of the
Jewish Council on Urban Affairs. "We want to come out with a strong
support, (but) we don't want to overwhelm the community."

Well that just made me lose all my respect for the Jewish people. Don't they have enough problems defending themselves let alone try and defend law breaking ILLEGALS !
Get over it and if you don't like it take your arses to Mexico too.
PS... I have no Hispanics as Brothers or Sisters ! TYEvery immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country.

This is what happens when you get involved, hire or do business with illegal invaders! Not only do the illegals turn on you when the free ride is over, but so do the groups who support illegal invaders and the detremental impact they are having on this country.
Wouldn't it have been much more cost effective to have simply hired American workers and paid them a decent wage, in stead of dealing with the nightmare that is illegal invaders and their supporters. Hopefully, AgriProcessors will think about that, along with every other business out there who greedly hires illegal invaders at the expense of this country and its citizens in order to make a buck.
Far as I'm concerned, AgriProcessors is getting EXACTLY what it deserves(although obviously for entirely different reasons than the pro-illegal invader protestors discussed here)!Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
