IPSC: Irish Government Should Seek Safe Passage for MV Saoirse and Gaza Freedom Flotilla II

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Tuesday June 21, 2011 17:36author by IPSC - IPSC Report this post to the editors

Letter to Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs Eamon Gilmore TD

Below is a letter sent by today – Tuesday 21st June – by the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign to Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs, Eamon Gilmore TD, requesting that on behalf of the Irish State he demand safe passage for the Irish ship going to Gaza next week (the MV Saoirse) and for the whole of ‘Freedom Flotilla 2 – Stay Human.

The MV Saoirse

Dear Minister Gilmore,

We are writing to you on behalf of the 25 Irish citizens who will be sailing to Gaza later this month on board the Irish ship MV Saoirse, as part of the Freedom Flotilla II – Stay Human. Many of these brave people are members of our organisation, the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC).

We are aware that, in view of the threats issued against participants in the Flotilla by the Israelis, the Department of Foreign Affairs has advised Irish citizens against all travel to the Gaza Strip, including the waters off Gaza. However, we regard it as unacceptable that an Irish government should view the threat of violence against its citizens in international waters as an occasion for admonishing those citizens rather than the rogue state issuing the threat.
