Gaza woman's struggle to go on Hajj - 26 Nov 09
Safia al-Shrafi from the Gaza Strip is fulfilling a lifelong dream: to perform the Hajj in Mecca.
But her pilgrimage to Islam's holiest city has been a long struggle, full of grief. She and her husband had saved money and planned the trip together, but during Israel's war on Gaza last winter, he was killed.
Al Jazeera's Ayman Mohyeldin reports from Mecca in Saudi Arabia.

The Free Gaza Movement - November 2009
We successfully sailed to Gaza four times in 2008. Our last three trips have been violently stopped by the Israeli occupation navy. But we are not going to stop these voyages. We are going again in 2010. We need your help to make the voyages successful. Please watch this tape and see how you can help.
