We call upon the international community to exert pressure on the Israeli Occupation Forces and compel them to allow these activists to have access to Gaza.
Activists have the right to express their solidarity with the just Palestinian cause.
Their rights should not be violated by Israel or other countries which grant impunity to Israel.
Thirty international solidarity activists were supposed to have arrived at Gaza’s port on the morning of 20 October 2012
WE reiterate our condemnation of Israel’s actions against solidarity activists and WE ask for their immediate release.
We totally support the efforts exerted by international solidarity activists in support of the Palestinian cause and the end of the siege of Gaza.

You can always find propaganda pictures, in both sides, but Israeli people suffer from terror bombing from Gaza since the Israeli left Gaza to the Palestinians. Israeli children are bombed daily. Palestinian terror is not directed towards the Israeli army, but to civilians, for years now. None of you people would have agreed to live like that.
Palestinians are locked in. With no control of borders from air land or sea. 90% of food water, fuel and electricity cut off indefinitly. Do you think they should sit and be happy with the gratitude that they get to live in squalor?
How is this not even give any weight in your thought process? You’re entire statement makes this seem so oddly balances as far as the true aggressor.
Where was Israel previously? The land of Palestinians robbed from them and Israel created. Preaching is easier. Someone robs you of your belongings, still will you love them and allow them commit atrocities against you. But that is what exactly the Israelis are doing , robbed Palestine committing atrocities against them. Think like a human. Dont get carried away on ethnic/religious lines.
Dear June, You are beyond ignorant. The Israelis are committing genocide on the Palestinian people and robbing them of their land. Open your eyes and see what is happening. The Israelis should go back from the various countries they came from and give the land they are illegally taking from the Palestinian people back to them.
The oldest document, the bible, shows Israel as the land of the Jews. I am not a religious person, but that is some strong evidence. The Jews were forced out of there and were subject of genocide where ever they tried to survive. After the WWII the Jews returned to their own land.
You really think the parents in Israel want to sent their kids in to the Gaza?
