March 3, 2014 - On International Women's Day, Gaza Women Say End the Siege!

Colonel Ann Wright, who left her three-decades career in the military in protest against the Iraq War, is heading to Gaza to support women in the beleaguered Strip, demanding an end to the Israeli siege and the right to live in peace.  Ann and the other members of Code Pink's International Women's Day delegation will also check in on Gaza's Ark, an audacious project to enable Palestinians to export their products to the world.


Ann Wright recently returned from the Syrian peace conference in Geneva, where she supported a coalition of Syrian women demanding a seat at the table.

Update:  Code Pink founder Medea Benjamin, who was also planning to join the delegation to Gaza, was denied entry to Egypt and detained overnight before being deported to Turkey.  According to Benjamin, Egyptian police stomped on her back and broke her arm before dragging her onto a plane.
