On february 14th, 2009, a mile-long convoy of vehicles carrying 1 million pounds worth of aid set out on a 5000 mile journey from London to Gaza. This is an unprecedented display of humanitarism and concern for other people, in a time and age where the media tells us, that we aren't interested in politics, society and each other. Most importantly, the people on the convoy are perfectly ordinary human beings from all walks of life.
The response of the Mainstream Media (british and international) has been... well.. silence!
Enough is Enough! We the undersigned DEMAND that the media cover this amazing mission of compassion, caring and peace. Viva Palestina!

The major news outlets continue to ignore the convoy but we are refusing to let them look away. Contact your local news editor today and demand they report on the aid mission. Send them the link to the official website and ask why they are keeping this story out of the headlines.

The sheer number of people joining this push proves the media cannot ignore this convoy much longer. Post the link to your Facebook feed right now and tag your local news desk to demand they report on the mission.

It is crazy how they just ignore an entire convoy of aid. Bias at its finest. Show the truth for once.

Silence from the news stations is loud and clear these days. We know what is happening even if they try to hide it.

Why is the news so obsessed with celebrity drama but silent on this? People are actually trying to help others and we get zero coverage. Ridiculous.

The main stream media is a joke. keep ignoring the real issues while the rest of us actually try to help real people in need. VIVA PALESTINA!
