[lbo-talk] George Galloway announces new convoys to break the siege of Gaza

I'm reminded of that old IWW story - a town passed a law against street speakers and began arresting anyone who stood up on a soap box and began "Fellow Comrades." The IWW persisted by replacing anyone arrested by another speaker, who stood up, began "Fellow Comrades", and got arrested. Soon the (City? County?) jail was filled to capacity and the realization soon came that the expense of maintaining the jailed population was harder on the community than the threat of revolution...and so the ordinance was repealed.

Any chance that Israel has to pay for the deportation flight home? Probably not, I'll bet they bill the deportee in the end.
