The Viva Palestina convoy, the massive relief convoy from Britain led by MP George Galloway, has been able to cross the Morocco-Algeria border. The border is usually closed due to conflict between the two states. See video below:
Also: George Galloway comments on the visit of the convoy in Morocco.
Hi.
ReplyDeleteI think they're crossing the border today?
I'm quite disgusted that the media - even the progressive, non-mainstream media - isn't covering the aid/peace-activist convoy to Gaza (http://www.vivapalestina.org)... in my view it's REALLY news, that 'ordinary people' take matters into their own hands this way.. we all could learn a thing or two from this (disclaimer: I was a member of the not quite succesful, but still empowering Human Shield Mission to Iraq, in 2003)
ANYWAY, to do my bit, I've set up a blog with news, updates, video and an online petition from the Viva Palestina aid convoy:

Please help spread the word to as many people as possible. This really could make a huge difference!
Peace

Well, I was perhaps a bit to rash to assume that the opening (reported on Thursday) also meant that the convoy had passed...
