[quote:Anonymous Coward 989183:MV8xMDg2MjgwXzE3MzEyNTQ4X0E1RjgzMTY0] Almost time to celebrate the end of the Israeli blockade of Gaza. They have met their match -- Rachel Corrie times thousands! In your honor Rachel, you led the way.... [/quote]
Original Message
The Irish government has asked the Israeli occupation authority (IOA) not to intercept the Irish ship "Rachel Corrie" while en route to Gaza Strip with badly needed medical and relief material.
The Irish premier on Wednesday asked Israel to allow the cargo vessel to unload its shipment in Gaza without any hindrances.
The director general of the Irish foreign ministry sent a message to the Israeli ambassador in Dublin carrying the same meaning but no response was made public.
Rachel Corrie was supposed to join the Freedom Flotilla but was delayed for a few days due to technical reasons.
The European street is witnessing a series of protest rallies against the Israeli bloody attack on the Freedom Flotilla that left many of the activists on board its ships either killed or wounded.

Activists on the ship include Northern Irish Nobel Peace laureate Mairead Corrigan-Maguire; Denis Halliday, an Irish former senior United Nations diplomat; and several other Irish citizens.
"We are an initiative to break Israel's blockade of 1.5 million people in Gaza," Free Gaza Movement activist Greta Berlin, based in Cyprus, told Reuters. "Our mission has not changed and this is not going to be the last flotilla."
