A huge convoy of over 110 vehicles will leave London today for Gaza, delivering more than #1 million worth of aid, including ambulances and a fire engine. The size of the convoy and the amount of aid it is carrying have exceeded the expectations of the organisers, grouped under the umbrella Viva Palestine and supported by many Muslim organisations as well as the Stop the War Coalition.

The Viva Palestine convoy of more than 110 vehicles will deliver aid to Gaza
The size of the convoy and the amount of aid it is carrying have exceeded the expectations of the organisers, grouped under the umbrella Viva Palestine and supported by many Muslim organisations as well as the Stop the War Coalition.
The convoy will travel 5,000 miles through France, Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya and Egypt, crossing into Gaza at Rafah in early March.
Hundreds of volunteers are driving the aid convoy, which includes 12 ambulances, a boat and trucks full of medicines, tools, clothes, blankets and shoe-boxes as well as gifts for children.
Respect MP George Galloway, who will help to drive, said: "There is an intifada sweeping Britain. It is a massive and peaceful movement in support of the beleaguered population of Gaza and Palestine.
"It is happening everywhere, but is especially strong in the north of England and especially among young Muslims.
"This convoy is material manifestation of it. In barely a month, it has metamorphosed from an aspiration I threw out at the 100,000-strong pro-Palestine demonstration on January 10 to more than 100 vehicles and nearly 300 people from across Britain.
"We will lead the biggest convoy of British vehicles across North Africa since Montgomery."
The vehicles are heading to Ramsgate, Kent, where they will board a ferry to Ostend, Belgium.
After arriving in Ostend the convoy will travel down to Bordeaux in south west France for their first major stop.
Mr Galloway is expected to join up with the convoy frequently throughout the trip.

Continued:...Feed the hungry, heal the suffering, walk the rocky road, but be humble always in your endeavor, though you walk a knight's path. There are no enemies, only hearts in need of remembrance. Be Godlike in your compassion, encompassing all. Let Love be your way even though you wear the boots of a warrior.

[Mik902]

Honor to the Sons of Ishmael and the Sons of Isaac. Both noble brethren and of the lineage of a Prophet (Jacob). If the Sons of Isaac have forgotten this, if fear and arrogance have misguided them; if the Sons of Ishmael have forgotten this, if hunger and anger have misguided them, then YOU must remind them, through Patience, Compassion and Love. Only Love will Prevail. Only Love will Prevail. Only Love will Prevail. Let this sit in the depth of your heart. Do what you must, feed the hungry, he
