 *Let the MV Rachel Corrie Go!*
June 5, 2010

<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=ES12SC9AE3XLmRtiJHIjkQIbkxDxCIQj>

This morning we learned that the *Israeli military has illegally boarded the
MV Rachel Corrie**, *the final boat in the Gaza Freedom
Flotilla<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=7Euhfe%2F5zZcmoeKf5G%2B13wIbkxDxCIQj>,
and has abducted the passengers of the boat.

!

The *MV Rachel Corrie* is named in honor of the U.S. activist who was
crushed to death by an Israeli army operated Caterpillar bulldozer while she
attempted to nonviolently protect a Palestinian home from demolition in the
Gaza Strip.

Rachel's parents, Cindy and Craig Corrie, have
called<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=34RCkXnrA5Dh9L12IPDGiAIbkxDxCIQj>for
a full investigation of the attacks on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla and
the
unimpeded entry into the Gaza Strip of the ship named after their daughter.

     *Take action*<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=o%2BKzPFOk9iAILPbsypUIowIbkxDxCIQj>
* to honor Rachel Corrie* by emailing the White House and Congress calling
for a full investigation of these attacks on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla, the
release of all passengers and supplies, and an end to the siege of the Gaza
Strip.

Congress demanding an investigation into violations of the Arms Export
Control Act; and click

There's another way to honor Rachel's memory as well. The student body of
her alma mater, *Evergreen Colleg**e*, voted this past week to *divest from
Israel's illegal occupation* of the Palestinian West Bank, Gaza Strip, and
East Jerusalem, and to establish a "Caterpillar free" campus. *Support the
students and their divestment efforts* by clicking

Freedom Flotilla web

Protests continue across the United States--join one near you, or organize
your own using our Gaza Freedom Flotilla

Freedom March website<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=rb3W3x3IZO99HLCcz%2By%2BCAIbkxDxCIQj>

 *Thank you for everything that you are doing to protest Israel's actions
against the Gaza Freedom Flotilla, its immoral blockade of the Palestinian
Gaza Strip, and its illegal 43-year military occupation of the Palestinian
West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza Strip!  We'll be in touch soon.*
