On 30th May 2010, under the cover of darkness, the Israeli military hijacked the Free Gaza Movement flotilla in international waters. During this illegal act of what can only be described as piracy, at least 15 international peace activists were killed and scores were wounded.
The ship was carrying tons of desperately needed humanitarian aid for the besieged people of Gaza. The items on board the ships included water purification equipment, cement, generators, prefabricated homes, chocolate, crayons, wheelchairs, crutches, basketballs, and tons of paper to be used by schoolkids.
There was absolutely no need for Israel to attack this ship and murder unarmed peace activists.
In the wake of Israel's latest deadly act against innocent civilians, we the undersigned call on the Australian Government to cut all military, diplomatic and cultural ties with Israel Immediately, until Israel complies with international law.
