[Sosfbay-discuss] Fwd: [usgp-dx] Contact your US Rep.; American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Ctte. condemns seizure of Free Gaza boat (fwd)

[Andrea Dorey]

FYI. (see Sanda's email below) I also received these remarks from Sanda:

<snip>
It was good to receive the action alert from Jewish Voices for Peace  
with its links for finding numbers to call for our legislators,  
something to do.  I also forwarded to you the action alert from the  
Arab Anti-Defamation league which has an easy way to send an email to  
your legislators and the White House, and I hope you will forward  
that to your lists.  I have written my fellow members on the GPUS  
Steering Committee asking how we can get such actions on our own  
Action Alert web page.  There has been lots of conversation on the  
national lists about what actions to take.

> Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) condemns the Israeli naval  
> commandeering of a ship carrying humanitarian supplies to the  
> besieged territory of Gaza. The ship, which left from the Cypirot  
> port of Larnaca, was approximately 20 miles off the coast of Gaza  
> when it was board by Israeli Navy personnel and redirected to the  
> city of Ashdod.

> The ship was flying a Greek flag and traveled through international  
> waters but was stopped during their approach to the occupied Gaza  
> Strip. The "Spirit of Humanity" is crewed by a number of  
> humanitarian activists from across the globe including former  
> Congresswoman Cynthia Mckinney and Nobel Laureate Mairead Maguire.  
> Reports indicate that all of the ship's 21 crew members have been  
> taken into custody by Israel.

> The siege of the Gaza Strip has continued unabated for over two
