WRITE! for Justice, International Law, and Human Rights in Palestine
From the US Campaign to End the Occupation:
In an international act of piracy and murder in international waters, the Israeli navy intercepted, boarded, and opened fire on humanitarian activists on a flotilla of ships attempting to deliver humanitarian supplies to the Israeli-blockaded Palestinian Gaza Strip.
ISRAEL’S ACTIONS CANNOT GO UNANSWERED!
31 May 2010
Israel has used military force on the peaceful, humanitarian flotilla and murdered several unarmed civilians. This was not a confrontation, this was a massacre! The Emergency Response Plan is in effect. This includes emergency protests at all Israeli embassies (and beyond). Let Israel know that it cannot get away with its crimes against humanity!
To add your protest to the list, please email flotilla@gazafreedommarch.org or register your event here.

Organizations and individuals are organizing for emergency protests taking place in Washington, DC, and around the country to denounce the Israeli military massacre of activists on a Gaza aid convoy. Israel has killed at least 19 international activists, with dozens injured. The death toll may rise.
According to a Free Gaza Team report, filed from Cyprus, June 1, 2010, 6:30 am: “Under darkness of night, Israeli commandoes dropped from a helicopter onto the Turkish passenger ship, Mavi Marmara, and began to shoot the moment their feet hit the deck. They fired directly into the crowd of civilians asleep.”
