to Gaza, <I>The Audacity of Hope</I></A>,
expressed profound disappointment over a
statement issued by the U.S. State Department on
Wednesday, June 22, 2011. Instead of calling on
the Israeli government to let a flotilla of
unarmed civilians sail to Gaza, the United
States government is pressuring its own citizens
to refrain from legal acts.

<P
style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica">On
Wednesday, the State Department sent out a
"travel advisory" urging Americans not to
participate in the Gaza Freedom Flotilla.
According to the statement, U.S. citizens are
advised against traveling to Gaza by any means,
including via sea, noting that previous attempts
to enter Gaza by sea "have been stopped by
Israeli naval vessels and resulted in the
injury, death, arrest, and deportation of U.S.
citizens."

<P
style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica">"Apparently,
the State Department subscribes to the view that
Israel's anticipated violence against unarmed
protesters is an immutable act of nature," said
Hagit Borer, a professor of Linguistics at the
University of Southern California and a
passenger on the U.S. boat. "This is a
remarkable attitude, coming from a government
that provides the Israeli government with
billions of dollars in military aid and
routinely uses its veto to protect the Israeli
government from censure of its occupation
policies by the UN Security Council."

<P

on the boat noted that the U.S. State Department
has a legal obligation to act to protect U.S.
citizens when they are traveling abroad. "So
far, U.S. government officials have failed to
use their influence to discourage Israeli
authorities from ordering a physical assault on
us," said Just Foreign Policy policy director
Robert Naiman, another passenger on the U.S.
boat. "Of course, State Department officials
have an obligation to speak out against threats
to attack us. It is deeply disappointing that
they have so far failed to do so."

imprisoned 1.6 million civilians, almost half of
whom are under the age of 16. The blockade has
impoverished the people of Gaza, deprived them
of needed materials and supplies to rebuild
their lives after the Israeli attack of late
2008 - early 2009, impeded those who are ill or
infirm from seeking outside medical aid, and
prevented students from seeking education
outside of Gaza. 45% of the working age
population is unemployed.
