The very first attempt to break the siege on Gaza via a flotilla took place 15 years ago, in 2010. Israeli forces boarded the Mavi Marmara and killed 10 people. The youngest, 19 year old Furkan Dogan, was shot five times from close range. He was an American citizen.
Pope Leo: "Someone who says I’m against abortion but is in favor of the death penalty isn't pro-life. Someone who says I’m against abortion but in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don’t know if that’s pro life"
Imagine someone killing your family and then saying you need to be "deradicalized"
FBI Director Kash Patel called the ADL “an extreme group functioning like a terrorist organization,” saying in announcement that the FBI has cut all formal ties with the anti-hate group. @GSDeutch reports: ji.news/48xmj
Elon Musk hitting $500 billion while 60% of Americans can’t afford basic necessities is what it looks like when billionaires buy elections to get laws written to benefit themselves at the expense of everyone else. Elon Musk is a result of decades of policy failures.

Corporate greed is Boeing paying its CEO $18 million for 4 months of work, giving its last CEO a $45 million golden parachute & the CEO before that a $62 million golden parachute, spending $68 billion on stock buybacks & dividends & taking healthcare away from 3,200 machinists.
BREAKING: Pope Leo today: "Someone who says I’m against abortion but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life."
If the Houthis enforced their blockade of the Red Sea by boarding boats in international waters and kidnapping the crews you can be extremely sure that western media would not refer to it as an 'interception'

The lines out from the coastlines on this map are very important. They indicate territorial waters and they show that Israel, under maritime law, has no jurisdiction over Gaza's waters. Media spouts the lie of 'Israeli waters' but the flotilla will never enter Israeli waters

Greetings from the Global Sumud Flotilla as we make our final approach to Gaza ⛵️ Today, I am writing a very personal letter to you all — a letter about what it means to me to be Jewish on a mission that is set to arrive to the “Red Zone” during Yom Kippur, the holiest day of…
“They’re saying we’re going to free 1,700 Palestinians taken since October 7th, including all women and children. And, you know, first of all, why doesn’t anyone ever talk about this?… Why is Israel holding children?… Israel is holding hundreds of dead bodies of Palestinians……
Reagan-appointed U.S. District Judge Paul G. Young on ICE wearing masks: "ICE goes masked for a single reason -- to terrorize Americans into quiescence." "In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police."
BREAKING: Judge William Young, a Reagan appointee, delivers the most scathing legal rebuke of the Trump era, ruling that Trump and his cabinet illegally targeted pro-Palestinian students for deportation to "strike fear" into First Amendment protesters. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

Court-watchers confirm this cruel ICE agent has been reinstated. Last week, in the briefest moment of decency, violently throwing a woman to the floor was “beneath the men and women of ICE.” This week, it’s back to business as usual. The cruelty, after all, is the point.
