Jeff Klein, Ann Wright, and Husam Zomlot at UJP Strategy Conference June 19, 2010
About 50 UJP activists gathered June 19 to discuss breaking the siege of Gaza and peace movement strategy in general. Revulsion at the deadly Israeli attack May 31 on a humanitarian flotilla, and at the intransigent justifications provided by Israel and by many U.S. pro-Israel groups, has created a new political situation and new momentum for a change in policy.
