From the Alternative Information Center</p>
<blockquote><p>Israel  launched a public campaign Tuesday (22 March) against the international  organizations planning the Freedom Flotilla II aid convoy, set to sail  to Gaza in May of this year.</p>
<p>Mavi Marmara, part of the original Freedom Flotilla to the Gaza Strip in May 2010</p>
<p>Israel’s  Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon plans to meet with foreign  ambassadors at the ministry on Tuesday to seek their help in stopping  this year&#8217;s flotilla, reported the Israeli news daily Haaretz.</p>
<p>The  Foreign Ministry has also been asking foreign governments, including  Spain, Britain, Ireland and Sweden, to publish travel advisories warning  their citizens against sailing to Gaza. Britain and Ireland have in  fact done so, according to Haaretz.</p>
<p>The Freedom Flotilla II will  sail for Gaza sometime between May 15, in commemoration of the &#8220;Nakba&#8221;  (&#8220;catastrophe&#8221;), and May 31, the first anniversary of the deadly 2010  flotilla mission, which left nine activists dead. <a href="http://www.alternativenews.org/english/index.php/topics/news/3436-israel-campaigns-against-gaza-bound-freedom-flotilla-ii-planned-for-may">more</a></p></blockquote>
