I wasnt going to post anymore tonight in order to give you guys a chance to catch up, but this is HUGE! #Gaza the #Turkish are comin :) Now Im a bit worried about this, the last time it didnt go so well on the #MaviMarmara. #Israel boarded that flotilla and shot and killed people. But theyre gonna try again. Godspeed Turkey :) The Turkish humanitarian relief organisation (IHH) is currently organising a Freedom Flotilla II which will carry humanitarian aid to the besieged Gaza Strip, IHH chairman Bulent Yildrim said Thursday. In statements to Gulf Online, Yildrim said that his organisation has embarked on legal procedures and paperwork required to obtain a permit for the trip. As soon as a final permit is issued, the IHH along with other international organisations will immediately set up the convoy. The chairman of IHH, a major organiser of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla I, said that Turkish army troops will accompany the ships to protect it from any potential attack, pointing out that his organisation demanded the government to provide protection for them as Turkish citizens. Maze Keheil, the president of the European Campaign for Lifting the Siege on Gaza, confirmed his campaigns intention to take part in the new flotilla, as it did in first one in 2010.
