Gaza Freedom Flotilla protest at Congressman Brad Sherman's office

Responding to Congressman Brad Sherman (D-CA) who publicly called for the arrest and prosecution of "any U.S. citizens who were aboard or involved with the Freedom Flotilla" under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996,' Gaza Flotilla activists with the Free Gaza Movement, Gaza Freedom March, Code Pink, and Freedom Flotilla voluntarily make themselves available for arrest in Rep. Brad Sherman's Capitol Hill offices on Thursday, June 10th, 2010

USA Govt. control by Israel. Do you know about AIPAC? They control American election , your daily life, your economy , everything. If they tell USA Govt. to tell lie even though they know it is lie, no problem American Govt. tell it immediately there is WMD in iraq, including Obama, John Machine,Clinton Bush all are member of AIPAC and all will tell the same voice without any difference. The 1.5 million people in Gaza prison dies without food, madicine before the eyes of the world cause AIPAC

Shame on Congressman Brad Sherman for his words. 

[alexrsuarez1]

why has there not been a protest at the supreme court yet who recently passed a decision to back sherman's claims? there was 3 dissenting judges, but it was still passed. on the next flotilla americans can be arrested returning to the us. this must be prevented by showing we are not afraid now!

Brad Sherman is a stooge for Israel. Whenever they order him to jump, he will ask "how high".

@peekaboo67 Please write to D. Brad Sherman, R. Mike Pence, D.Gary Ackerman, for their anti-HUMANITARIAN stance by supporting the violence of Israel and blaming the victims of Marmara.. Their emails are on Congress.org website. Pass this on

@cymonebreathe They are activists, not terrorists...but becasue the Israel Government killed 9 innocent people, they are trying to cover up their criminal acts by labeling the passengers as terrorists, to justify their actions. Naturally, the U.S is the only country that believes this

@grecobactrian this is true Hamas is strong because of the mistreatment of the Gaza and West bank Palestinians. We really need to Unite against Israel its government and people who vote their militia government in ! UNITE For the Rights of the Free People in the World
