John Mallon preparing to leave Turkey on the MV Saoirse

LATEST UPDATE FROM John Mallon ABOARD THE IRISH SHIP, THE MV SAOIRSE…..:

Hello frıends and comrades as you all know we attempted to saıl to gaza some months ago! our shıp was sabotaged and was damaged ın such a way to try and kıll everyone on board our shıp. They dıd not succeed!!!

Israel is very wrong ıf they thınk they frıghtened us, if anything ıt has made us more determined to get to Gaza. There are 1.5 mıllıon people sufferıng ın gaza, and lıttle chıldren are beıng bombed every day.

Please come out and show your support for this flotilla, not for us, but for the people of gaza.

We are currently sailing in international waters and everyone’s spirits are high, but, we know what lies ahead of us, however, we cannot stop this from deterring us in our journey to Gaza.

I would like to thank my mother for her lovıng support and all of my chıldren who I love wıth all my heart and look forward to bıg hugs when ı get back home. John Mallon chaır of the Belfast Irish Ship to Gaza Fundraising Committee…. STAY HUMAN
