Seattle Supports U.S. Boat to Gaza!


Folks at U.S. Boat to Gaza Fundraiser at Trinity United Methodist Church (thanks Rev. Rich Lang!) enjoying a great dinner prepared mainly by these folks, including head Chef Ziyad Zaitoun and Doug Barnes.



After dinner the crowd adjourned to the sanctuary where David Schermerhorn and Ann Wright, flotilla survivors and continuing campaigners, shed a lot of light (contrary to the appearance of my pictures) on the issue of Israel's brutal siege on Gaza.

The event (sponsored by Veterans for Peace, Voices of Palestine, America Friends Service Committee, Palestine Solidarity Committee, Peace Action, ANSWER, Radical Women, Freedom Socialist Party and Sound Non-violent Opponents of War) garnered $3,500 for the next Boat to Gaza!

Congratulations to all the organizers and thanks to Ann Wright, David Schermerhorn and Kit Kittredge (a notable Friend of Gaza).
