The Israeli-American Council will hold celebrations marking Israel’s Independence Day this year for the first time, in a sign of the organization’s expansion and the growth of the Israeli community in the United States.
The five mass festivals around the US will take place throughout May and will be the largest Jewish activity in North America, with more than 50,000 Israeli-Americans expected to participate. The locations were chosen in proportion to the size of the local Israeli community. Miami will hold its festival on May 3, followed by Las Vegas a week later, Los Angeles on May 17, and New York and Boston on May 31.
The festivals will include a technology pavilion, as well as stands showcasing Israeli graffiti, fashion displays, and more. Israeli musicians will also be performing, including Shlomi Shabat, Ethnix, Rita, and other artists.
“The festivals will give the tens of thousands of participants coast to coast the possibility to celebrate Israel’s Independence Day for a whole day, which is an experience showing all that is beautiful and good in Israel,” said Sagi Balasha, the group’s CEO.
“The festivals, which are an important element of the IAC’s diverse activity around the US, will help recruit the Israeli-American and Jewish community for the pro-Israel activism that’s needed today, more than in the past, in light of the increase in anti-Semitism and attempts to delegitimize Israel around the US and the entire world.”
An estimated 500,000-80,000 Israelis live in the United States, making it the largest Israeli community outside of Israel. The Israeli-American Council is currently active in six US locations – New York, Boston, Miami, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC.
The IAC was founded in 2007 with the goal of uniting the Israeli community to support Israel, guarantee the identity of future generations of Israelis living in the US, and building a bridge with the Jewish-American community. The organization holds events and activities in many fields, in which about 100,000 people participate each year.

Never in human existence has a people been more subjected and downtrodden than Americans even Roman slaves got better treatment Please ! Vote the Jews OUT NOW !!
Why am I sniffing False Flag already?
More pain and suffering is needed to wake the slaves masses/asses up. You don’t like colonial life ?? We are obviously a colony if the Israe-LIEs. Where are the nazi’s when you need them hey ??
They have their pointless parade in Jew York City every year, and every year pro-Palestinian activists are there (thank goodness) to throw cold water on it.
Enjoy your apartheid celebrations-these israelis never get tired of talking about themselves loud enough for you to hear it, but sooner or later they will wear out their welcome.
I’d sooner stamp on Israelis than stand for them!
Here I blame American people more than their government, in fact their silence and carelessness in this matter is much worse than those who arrange and celebrate the Israeli parties around the country…
American people should know that their government sends around 5 billion dollars of tax-payers money to Israel every year but at the same time the American governments doesn’t have enough money for its own people. They don’t have enough for health care, for free education, repairing the roads and many other essential things but have enough money for foreign fascists…
So, the silence of people is the sign of their silence for these crimes… It is shame…
Its a lot more than the so called 5 billion to IsraHELL. They also get 10 billion in loan guarantees that are never repaid, plus all kinds of military equipment, free intelligence advice. In 2009 Former Congressman James Trafficant (murdered by the Jews in 2014 ) said that Israel gets more than 20 billion a year from the impoverished American taxpayers.
