DESCRIPTION:June 3, 2010 - Free Gaza Movement Show.\n With members of the Free Gaza 
 Movement, a human rights group that in August 2008 sent the first 
 international boats to land in the port of Gaza in 41 years. They sought to 
 break the siege of Gaza, to raise international awareness about the 
 prison-like closure of the Gaza Strip, and pressure the international 
 community to review its sanctions policy, and end its support for continued 
 Israeli occupation. Their non-violent/direct action has raised awareness 
 and inspired solidarity towards the plight of the Palestinian people. The 
 Israeli attack upon the flotilla carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza began in 
 international waters during the night of May 31, 2010. At least 9 people 
 were killed and fifty were injured. Israel took most of their equipment, 
 cameras, cell phones, the boats...and threw 600 people into detention 
 centers in Israel, and have tried to deport most of them, but still holds 
 several people as prisoners. On June 2, 2010, the UN Security Council 
 called for impartial, credible investigation of the Israeli attack upon the 
 boats and requested the immediate release of the ships as well as the 
 civilians. One more boat, the MV Rachel Corrie is still en route to Gaza 
 with Nobel Peace Laureate, Mairead Maguire on board, as well as Denis 
 Halliday who was UN Assistant Secretary-General from 1994-98, and awarded 
 the UK Gandhi Peace Prize.\n\n\nThis weekly radio show is hosted by local 
 activist, Carol Brouillet. Archives are posted at-
