Emergency Protest Information for Washington DC Area

The Gaza Freedom Flotilla is on its way to Gaza. Israel said it will stop the boats from reaching Gaza, they have done so before and they can do it again. Demand that Israel allow safe passage for the flotilla and allow the desperately needed aid to reach Gaza.

**PLEASE BRING PALESTINIAN FLAGS, BANNERS, POSTERS**

Unlike previous Free Gaza boats, this flotilla includes large vessels. 2 cargo and 6 passenger ships will be carrying substantial amounts of reconstruction supplies, medical supplies, and school supplies, and 600 passengers from 50 countries, including USA. It cannot afford to fail. This is an opportunity to denounce the inhumanity of Israel's three year long siege and running.

Confirmed cities include: Chicago, Washington DC, Toronto, New York. Organizations wishing to endorse the ongoing actions, or to register your event and add your city, please email: flotilla@gazafreedommarch.org
