The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs says the Madleen’s crew is being taken to Israel after Israeli commandos seized the vessel in international waters. The Madleen ship, launched by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, was close to 100 miles [160km] from Gaza when it was stopped. The ship was carrying humanitarian aid to Palestinians starving because of Israel’s siege. Israel’s most recent total blockade began on March 2, and has only partially lifted under mounting international pressure.

    While Netanyahu has been a shit stain on the world stage for the last +25 years, getting rid of him alone will not stop the violent zionist settler colonial project. It existed before he was born and will continue unless the root cause is fully understood.

      Totally agree with you! “Getting rid of him alone will not stop the violent zionist settler colonial project” is an amazing statement. I don’t think it should just be fully understood, but also stopped through educating the masses on it’s racist nationalism.
