In a four day labor community picket at the Port of Oakland, ILWU
rank and file from Local 10 and Local 34 abided by a picket line
despite the presence of hundreds of police and Alameda County
Deputies to force the longshore workers to cross the picket lines.
The picketing which took place between August 17 through
August 20, 2014. After failing to get longshore to work the cargo
at port operator SSA. The ship left the terminal went out to sea
and then returned to Ports America where efforts were made to
unload the cargo by deceiving members of the unions. Only a
small percentage of the cargo was removed and the ship left for
Russia without fully unloading and not picking up any cargo. This
successful solidarity picket against the role of Israel in the bombing
and massacres of the people of Gaza backed by US military and
economic aid is a real threat to the Israel shipping line.
