'Jewish Physician and infant holocaust survivor, Gabor Mate, reaffirms his support for the Gaza Freedom Flotilla.

Speaking from Poland near the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising memorial, Mate sends a message to the crew of the Madalyn.

He draws a parallel between their mission to Gaza and the historic resistance of the ghetto fighters.

“Even if you don't achieve your objective of reaching Gaza, which of course they will not let you, you have already won. You have already scored a great victory for humanity,” Mate concludes.
