Hadash protest slams Israeli government’s exploitative foreign worker policies

Protesters took to the streets of Tel Aviv yesterday (Monday, August 10, 2009) to demonstrate against Israel’s "revolving door policy" on migrant workers. The march, organized by Hadash (Democratic Front for Peace and Equality – Communist Party of Israel) Tel Aviv, drew hundred activists who held banners, and red flags, and handed out flyers in front of the offices of some of the country’s largest employment agencies on Rothschild Boulevard. "Foreign workers are not slaves!" yelled the protesters.
