Norwegians and Swedes attempting to break Gaza blockade
Well, here we go again. A group of Norwegians and Swedes is attempting to open Gaza for weapons import by breaking Israel's sea blockade of the Islamic militancy."We have the same goal as the previous flotillas, to put an end to the blockade of Gaza by challenging the Israeli navy," said Torstein Dahle, the leader of the Norwegian section of the activist group "Ship to Gaza."If that's how they feel, you have to wonder why they're bothering. Of course, one cannot rely on claims to non-violence. The Mavi Marmara claimed to be non-violent too.
"This time around it will be an easy task for the Israelis to stop us because we will be so few and strictly non-violent," Dahle told Reuters at Oslo harbor.
The SV Estelle, a 53-metre vessel backed mainly by Swedish and Norwegian groups, will sail from Oslo on Tuesday, and organizers hope several other ships will join it during its journey before it reaches waters off Gaza in October.Who the heck is supporting these people? Can you take two months off from work like that? I can't.
