Brazen. In spite of the Gaza Freedom March's well recorded acquaintance with Hamas, their demonstrated lack of ability or will to keep their deliveries out of the hands of the terrorist group, and the fact that there are other perfectly legitimate ways of sending actual charity to the people of Gaza, some people insist on continuing the charade, in spite of the fact that giving material aid to a terrorist entity is a serious violation of law. (See: Student Participants in Gaza Freedom March 'Underwhelmed' by Experience and Amira Hass: Pro-Gaza activists under siege - imposed by Egypt and Hamas among many other reports for the way Hamas co-opts these efforts.)

Here's the info on the event last night at a private home. I've been told by the people who have forwarded this that the person in question has been circulating this information widely, so I'm not hesitating to also make the information available. Newton took action to prevent GTMO detainees being released to their community, they should stay informed about the other ways their neighbors are aiding terrorists, either with money or propaganda (the GFM's primary purpose).

6 PM Potluck dinner -- Reports and slide show starts at 7 PM

Sarah Roche-Mahdi, Ridgely Fuller, and Lois Mastrangelo have all recently returned from the W. Bank and Egypt. Sarah was in Egypt with the Gaza Freedom March, Lois traveled with the Michigan Peace Team in the W. Bank and Ridgeley visited many sites both with Sabeel and on her own in E. Jerusalem and the W. Bank, focusing on nonviolent resistance to the Israeli occupation.

We will ask for donations to aid programs in Palestine and to break the siege of Gaza.

The Report Back will be held at Ann Glick's home in W. Newton. Call her for directions at 617-332-[snip] or email her at aglick@hotmail.com.

Code Pink's GFM fundraising continues with radical chic in the 'burbs. Will the authorities take the same interest in it as they have in Galloway's Viva Palestina? We hope so.

We've managed to keep out the Gitmo terrorists; now what are we going to do about the terrorist supporters and wanna-be's next door?
