international waters to Gaza.

5o> Action
Minutes ago, international peace advocates aboard the Freedom Flotilla III
announced their departure from European ports to the port of Gaza via
international waters, to protest the illegal blockade of 1.8 million human
beings in Gaza. [1] Former US Army Col. Ann Wright and USS Liberty veteran
Joe Meadors are on board. [2] The UN has recently called for the end of the
Gaza blockade. [3]
Urge Secretary of State Kerry to press the Netanyahu government not to
attack the flotilla by signing our petition at MoveOn:

Retired IDF major general Shlomo Gazit, who was head of IDF military
intelligence, has called on the Netanyahu government to let the peaceful
flotilla pass to Gaza unmolested. [4] Haaretz - the "New York Times of
Israel" - has defended the right of Knesset Member Basel Ghattas to
participate in the flotilla as a nonviolent political protest of the Gaza
blockade. [5]
Urge Secretary Kerry to stand with General Gazit and Haaretz and press
Netanyahu to let the flotilla pass from international waters to Gaza
unmolested by signing and sharing our petition:
