Good news on Natalie Portman and Gaza convoy

Well apparently reports that Natalie Portman has fallen off an abyss and plunged to her death while filming a Jane Austen Zombie movie in New Zealand are greatly exaggerated.

And the other good news is the Viva Palestina convey will make it to Gaza, a lot of good Green Party activists on board, I salute you!




Organisers of Viva Palestina aid convoy, which is trying to reach the Gaza Strip, have now agreed to go via Syria en route to Egypt.

The agreement came after a Turkish mediator reached a deal with the Egyptian consul in Jordan’s Red Sea port of Aqaba.

The convoy will now head to the Syrian port of Latakia to sail from there to the Egyptian port of El Arish, and then to Gaza.


The Viva Palestina convoy, which has been stranded in Aqaba for the past five days, is led by George Galloway, a British MP.
