[Peace-discuss] Egypt Says It Will Block International Gaza Freedom Marchers

[Robert Naiman]

On December 31, together with more than 1000 peace advocates from
around the world, I'm planning to join tens of thousands of
Palestinians in a march in Gaza to the Erez border crossing to protest
the Israeli blockade of Gaza, and to demand international action to
relieve Gaza's humanitarian crisis.

Unfortunately, it appears that the Egyptian government has just
announced that it will not allow the internationals to enter Gaza as
planned. If so, that would be a shame.

But this apparent decision could be reversed with sufficient public
pressure, in Egypt and around the world.
