EGYPT Under Pressure to Stop Life-Line Convoy to Gaza !

".....The Life-Line aid convoy to Gaza will eventually, without hindrance, be granted permission to cross the border to Gaza. If Egypt plays a dirty game with the Israelis and bows to US pressure they will expose its international relationships and priorities to the world.

We are well aware of that previous aid convoys to the war-torn Gaza have been held up for several days, even weeks, by the Egyptian government, giving in to the pressure from Zionist Israel and its allies, Zionists in the US government.

Last time, the past summer, drivers of emergency vehicles were subjected to night-long attacks, which resulted in hospital treatment of trauma for some. This time local and international media will cover the event, and many international activists will gather in Egypt planning how to continue our travel in safety to Gaza – and remember, we will never bow down to Israel!"
