The boats of Free Gaza Movement (http://www.freegaza.org) have arrived at Cyprus. Very soon they will start their voyage to Gaza. Their mission is to defy the deadly blockade imposed by Israel on the Palestinians of Gaza. With international solidarity as only weapon, the activists of Free Gaza Movement are determined to stand up to Israeli terrorism.

Israel threatens this non violent action of civil disobedience with violent repression, arrests and confiscation of the boats. Given that there are also Greek citizens on the boats, the Greek government has the obvious duty to press Israel not to use violence against the activists and let the boats pass.

Intifada-Solidarity Association to the Palestinian People supports Free Gaza Movement and some of its members are on the boats. The siege is annihilating Palestinian people: It’s time to break it!
