Students Honor Terror Victims with Candlelight Vigil
by Gary J. Raichart
Editor-in-Chief
The Stanford Israeli Alliance organized a candlelight vigil on October 4, 2003, in memory of the 19 victims of the suicide bombing in Haifa, Israel, which had occurred earlier in the day. Students gathered around the candles to collectively display their grief for those involved in the terrorist attack. Those who felt the need expressed personal feelings about the tragedy, while others remained in silence. Participants held Israeli flags in an unbroken arc as a sign of solidarity in support of the existence of Israel. The event took place between Green and Meyer Libraries with a little over a dozen students in attendance.
