Irish American dissident, [not a Jew, but had once been married to one] Greta Berlin, a proud member on the Jewish S.H.I.I.T.E. List- of over 7,000 Jews who have been labeled as "self-hating and Israel-threatening Ediots"by radical fundamentalist Zionists hatemongers-informed the crowd:
"We have been invited by the Palestinian Red Crescent Society of Gaza to go to Gaza. The people of Gaza expect us and will come out in their boats to meet us. We will fish together."
Co-visionary of End the Siege in Gaza, Dr. Paul Larudee, a former Fulbright-Hayes lecturer and piano tuner who had scheduled twenty piano tuning appointments throughout the West Bank during the summer of 2006, but spent two weeks in a Ben Gurion jail cell before Israel deported him, further ignited the crowd:
"So far we have raised the money for two boats, but we want to send ten. So far eighty people have committed to ship themselves to Gaza through international waters; we are not going through Israel.
"Israel claims Gaza is unoccupied and so, we
are going to unoccupied territory, as soon as we raise another
$150,000.00 for
six more boats. We will embark in Cypress and disembark in Gaza. This
can play
out in many ways; we may get blown out of the water, we may get towed
away, but
we will remain nonviolent and exercise the sovereignty of international
waters,
for we are not going through Israel.
