On May 14, 2010, the MV Rachel Corrie pulled out of the docks in Ireland and began her long journey down the coast of Europe to the Mediterranean. She is named after the 23 year old American, Rachel Corrie, who was killed in Gaza by an Israeli bulldozer as she was protecting the home of a Palestinian doctor. She will join seven other vessels in the Mediterranean and sail to Gaza to deliver vitally needed construction, medical and school supplies to the imprisoned population of Gaza.

  • Great job people. Rachel Corrie will never die

    Freedom dignity peace and Justice for Palestine

  • Egypt has received over $2.5 Billion a year from the US since the Carter canp David peace treaty, and Israel has received over

    $5 Billion a year from the US , so both Eygpt and Israel have a financial incentive to work together against the Palestinian people.

    The US citizens, who's tax dollars are being given away, must make a stand against their

    Government, for the politicians will never stop

    Oppressing the people volunterally.

  • god bless all involved, free palestine

  • Under article 3 of the Rome Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Maritime Navigation of 1988, it is an international crime for any person to seize or exercise control over a ship by force & also a crime to injure or kill any person in the process. The thugs in the apartheid entity in occupied Palestine-from the top dogs of the regime to the hired hit men who did the killings-must be brought to justice.

  • For everybody in the UK, an appeal by OXFAM:

    Texting the word "LIFT" to 70066 supports calls on our government for an end to the Gaza blockade. Please pass this message on. Texts cost standard network charges (12 p if you with Virgin mobile like I am).
