Gaza

Join the San Diego Branch of the International Socialist Organization (ISO) for our weekly discussion about politics and planning for upcoming events.

To Mark the 2nd Anniversary of the Gaza Massacre
End The Siege and Attacks on Gaza Now!

The holidays have arrived and people all over the world are celebrating with their loved ones. Yet, this time of year symbolizes a period of continuing terror and constant uncertainty for Palestinians imprisoned in the Gaza Strip and which today remains in its fourth year under a criminal siege.

Jason Bechtel is a local activist and a former grad student at UCSD who has recently returned from two weeks in Palestine as part of a delegation of Interfaith Peace-Builders. He was in the West Bank during and after the attack on the Freedom Flotilla and was able to participate in protest/solidarity demonstrations in Ramallah and Sakhnin.
 

Eyewitness report from Palestine

The ANSWER Coalition, Free Palestine Alliance, MAS San Diego and other organizations and individuals are calling for a national days of action against the Zionist state on Friday June 4th and Saturday June 5th to denounce the Israeli military massacre of human rights activists on a Gaza aid convoy. At least 19 international activists were killed by Israel, with dozens injured. The death toll may rise.
