Protesters Picket Israeli Cargo Ship
June 20, 2010
—
In Oakland, California an Israeli ship was blocked by
protesters for the first time in history. 700-1000 protesters blocked
three different gates at 5:30
A.M. keeping dockworkers from unloading the Israeli cargo.
ILWU
members refused to cross picketline - citing "health & safety"
provisions of their contract. Management demanded "instant
arbitration." The arbitrator took a look at the picketlines at each
gate to the SSA Terminal and ruled that ILWU members were justified in
refusing to cross.
All dockworkers were sent home with FULL
PAY.
Special thanks to the Brass Liberation Orchestra for their
performances today.

Hours after Israeli Navy Commandos raid humanitarian aid ships
and kill at least 9 people, supporters of justice for Palestine are
confronted by a few Zionists waving Israeli flags. A handful of
activists confront the Zionists waving their own Palestinian flags and

while a young woman attempts to confiscate an Israeli flag that
supporters announce is "covered in blood".

San Francisco Protests Flotilla Massacre (Part 1: The March)
May 31, 2010
—
San Francisco demonstrates against Israeli Navy storming
humanitarian aid ships headed for the besieged Gaza Strip killing at
least 9 people. The ships were in international waters when they were
attacked. Cities around the world hold similar demonstrations denouncing
Israel's use of deadly force on practically unarmed civilians(sling
shots, marbles, and a few metal rods were found).
Demonstrators
march on the sidewalk and take the street at about 1:20 . I
had advocated to take the streets earlier when a Code Pink activist
got in my face and said "You got a problem?".
