    They are cartoonish, all so Trump hyperbole and yet, some here have their head up their ass that these bad guys are on their side at least.

    The more time in power, steamrolling norms, the deeper the ultra nationalist insanity gets. Trump was given time and he turned so many young Amercians.

    They should just let Greta and her group of activists to go ashore in Gaza. Hamas needs some more hostages.

    MOP (n.): A white, soft-bodied, suburban adult who absorbs propoganda, contributes nothing original, and lives in a state of aesthetic and intellectual entropy. Short for “Mass Of Passive.” or "Middle-aged Overweight Person".

    Hamas would not harm Greta. Bibi's new IS leaning friends on the other hand..

    Israel has maintained a naval blockade on Gaza since 2007. In 2011, the UN Palmer Report (commissioned by the UN Secretary-General) found the blockade legal under international law, provided it met certain conditions:

    It must be publicly declared and enforced.

    It must not block purely humanitarian aid.

    It must not impose disproportionate harm to civilians.

    Quite a lot of inside track on how money influences Washington.

    Once again international waters, this time using some chemical spray? They were in absolutely no danger of kidnap of course. Maybe being mobbed by people but they would have a rib or other to establish a safe landing. The bigger danger would of course being sniped by IDF or Bibi's militia. In any case, they succeeded in the objective.

    "The team for Rima Hassan, a French Palestinian member of the European Parliament on board the Madleen, says the crew was "arrested by the Israeli army in international waters" at 02:00 local time (00:00 BST).

    "Actions are coming — stay tuned," Hassan's team wrote on her X account, external.

    In an earlier interview from the boat, Hassan told AFP news agency: "We are not armed. There is only humanitarian aid."

    "Palestinian government calls for protection of aid boat activists
    The Palestinian foreign ministry, based in the West Bank, has called for the activists onboard the ship to be protected.

    In a post on X, the ministry says it "salutes the international solidarity activists aboard the ship attempting to break the siege on the Gaza Strip", calling the operation "noble"."


    "A coward dies a thousand deaths..."
    Some people learn young that silence is the safest response to harm, that survival depends on staying quiet until the danger passes. For them, protest, confrontation, even simple dissent can feel like walking back into the fire.

    It’s no surprise, then, that some survivors of abuse become deeply invested in control, order, and conformity. The noise of protest can trigger old instincts, the need to restore silence at any cost. Best to write a letter, they say. Stay calm. Keep things tidy. But for some, that instinct becomes something darker: the urge to silence others.

    Well congrats to the Madleen crew in achieving their objective. Smart this time to get a smaller craft that precluded use of another attack drone which targeted the generator of the previous larger vessel.

    No deaths, well so far.

    In 2010, the Mavi Marmara flotilla raid resulted in 10 deaths. The International Criminal Court (ICC) reviewed the case but ultimately did not prosecute Israel, though it found reasonable grounds that war crimes may have occurred.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_flotilla_raid

    According to a UN report, all activist deaths were caused by gunshots, and "the circumstances of the killing of at least six of the passengers were in a manner consistent with an extra-legal, arbitrary and summary execution."[8][9] The five other ships in the flotilla employed passive resistance, which was suppressed without major incident. According to the UN report, several of the passengers were injured and the leg of one was fractured.[8][10] The ships were towed to Israel. Some passengers were deported immediately, while about 600 were detained after they refused to sign deportation orders; a few of them were slated for prosecution. After international criticism, all of the detained activists were also deported.[11][12]
