Last Dec. 27, the U.S.-funded Israel war machine unleashed a blizzard of U.S.-made weapons of mass destruction on the towns and refugee camps of Gaza, the most densely populated place on earth. 1,500 died, many of them women and children. Tens of thousands lost their arms, legs, eyes, were paralyzed, orphaned or made homeless.

The United Nations Goldstone commission found that the Israeli state had committed war crimes, but the U.S. government has blocked any international action on its report. Meanwhile the people of Gaza still go hungry, their children are malnourished, the sick die from lack of medicine, their homes have not been rebuilt because of the vicious blockade imposed by the U.S. and Israel and acquiesced in by Egypt and the European Union. U.S. Army Engineers are stationed on the Gaza-Egypt border to try and stop food, medicine and building materials from going through.

People  from around the world are seeking to break the blockade. The third Viva Palestina convoy led by British MP George Galloway departed London Dec. 5 with 200 people, 64 truckloads of humanitarian aid and 16 ambulances. The convoy grew as it crossed  Europe, Turkey, Syria and Jordan to a tumultuous popular welcome. They are now up to 500 people and 210 vehicles–50 from Turkey alone. Some participants have come from as far as Malaysia. They plan to cross into Egypt today and enter Gaza on Dec. 27. You can learn more about their exciting journey at www.vivapalestina.org
