Sarah Colborne’s eyewitness account of the Mavi Marmara massacre

Message From Sarah Colborne

The last 72 hours have been the most harrowing in my life. Even for an experienced campaigner like myself, nothing prepared me for the barbaric onslaught by the Israeli Army on a boat of unarmed peace activists with a cargo of humanitarian aid.

There are images from Monday’s bloody attack that will haunt me for the rest of my life.

Yet for all the horrors of the last few days, for all the deaths and injuries, there is one thing that helped me through – knowing that back here in London PSC would be vociferously campaigning on behalf of all the hostages illegally held by the Israeli’s.

I will be writing tomorrow at greater length about my experiences, but I wanted every PSC member and supporter to know that your outstanding campaign over the last week is appreciated and I hope to see as many of you as can make it to the demo in central London on Saturday.
