Our participants have made it to Greece! | Our
boat, the PERSEVERANCE, alongside others from the Freedom Flotilla
Coalition have now made it to Greece to prepare for our final stretch to
break the illegal, inhumane Israeli blockade Gaza. We have passed the
point at which 180 Global Sumud Flotilla participants were abducted and
22 of their boats boarded and seized, and we will soon meet at sea with
the remaining boats and volunteers that made it past Israel's unlawful
seizure and abduction.
Despite
the high alert our teams have been on, the energy remains strong and
dedicated to raising the alarm on Israel's illegal blockade of
Palestine. Our participants are taking big risks on this mission, and we
need to do what we can to support them. Our legal team, boat repair,
and preparations for this mission have been costly - and we need your
help to cover this. We will also need funds to look after them if they
are abducted by Israeli Occupation Forces at sea, unlawfully detained
and deported. | | | Our
operations are fully volunteer-run, with individuals making immense
personal sacrifices to be a part of this mission. We have the heart and
the conscience to respond to what our governments won't - but our
opponents have the funding. History
shows us the power of ordinary people standing up against the face of
injustice. Palestinians in Gaza continue to live under enforced
starvation, airstrikes, and inhumane medical, housing and other
conditions as the world turns away. We refuse to remain silent in the
face of this. | | |  | Olivier, pictured above doing some repairs sent us a message on why he's still determined to sail this morning:
"When
the fear of violence from Israel comes to mind, I remember that
Palestinians live through far worse conditions which no governments or
institutions seem to be able to stop. So if my friends and I are not
trying to break the siege, who will do it?"
We
remain committed to challenging the illegal blockade of Palestine until
we see the change that is required for real liberation. We're asking
you to join us in this commitment, by supporting us with a donation if
you have the means to do so, and by sharing our messages with others who
want to push for real change.
When governments fail - we sail.
In solidarity, Canada Boat to Gaza team
