Above is John Reuwer, World BEYOND War Board Member and Treasurer, in Turkey to sail on the Gaza Flotilla, bringing aid to the people of Gaza.
He reports that people are preparing, and learning about the 16-year history of the Flotilla from veterans of past missions.
This year’s mission is led by a man whose father was killed by Israeli forces attacking the Mavimarmara ship in 2010.
Below, WBW Advisory Board Member Ann Wright orients volunteers from 12 nations who will be accompanying the Flotilla.
