Summary: Gaza Freedom Flotilla survivor and retired film producer, Dave Schermerhorn gives his experiences of being aboard the Gaza Freedom Flotilla and of being illegally detained inside an Israeli prison. Hazim Shafi talks about the humanitarian aspects of what life is like in Gaza, how the situation has degraded significantly over the years, and why these latest measures that have been announced are a sham. An Inside Story of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla Attack and the Gaza Blockade. The video versions of this program open with a very condensed version of some extraordinary and shocking video of the illegal attack in international waters on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla compiled by CulturesofResistance.org. The video was hidden and smuggled out by peace activists and journalists who were aboard the flotilla and subsequently kidnapped by the IDF attackers. These talks were excepted from a conference entitled: Gaza's Humanitarian Crisis and the Failure of U.S. Policy. This event was recorded Friday, June 25th at 7 PM in St. Mark's Cathedral's Bloedel Hall., Capitol Hill, Seattle, Washington. http://www.archive.org/details/The_Crisis_in_Gaza_raw_audio
