"Solidarity with the Schalits continues after 11-day march to Jerusalem.
A day after the rally that saw 15,000 people come out in support of St.-Sgt. Gilad Schalit in the capital on Thursday, volunteers continued to show solidarity with the kidnapped soldier by handing out bumper stickers and yellow ribbons at a tent in front of the Prime Minister’s Residence.
One of the volunteers, Dan Fishbein, from Kibbutz Afikim in the Galilee, who was among 150 who marched with the Schalits during the entire 11-day journey from their home in Mitzpe Hila to Jerusalem, said he was inspired by the image of Schalit suffering in captivity.
'There is a young man in tremendous pain right now, who hasn’t seen his family in 1,475 days,' Fishbein said."
