Zeteo contributor Alex Colston is among those Israel abducted, as activists accuse Greece, a NATO member, of complicity after Israeli forces intercepted 22 boats in international waters near Crete.
While the world is distracted by whatever drama Trump cooks up, Netanyahu’s apartheid regime continues to keep aid away from Gaza and prying eyes away from their continued atrocities by kidnapping these peace activists. The war on Gaza and all Palestinians wages on both in the remains of Gaza and in the West Bank. The genocidal regime will not be satiated and it knows it can continue to act with complete impunity aided and abetted by complaint and complicit governments and media in the West.
I'd argue the US is the lesser evil just because we're not openly going full Holocaust like Netanyahu clearly is. But given how bad our behavior also is, it kinda feels like debating whether Imperial Japan or Nazi Germany was worse.
As the world stands by and continues to do nothing while Israel and USA break international laws, don’t be surprised when it hits your doorstep. USA bombing boats is a Crime and Israel kidnapping people in international waters is a Crime. Again, Western Governments do nothing. This duo of terrorists has proven they have no allegiance to anyone except themselves. They are single handedly showing that laws mean nothing, and that terrorists rule this world.
It was easy to predict this outcome to a degree but in international waters? That's a new line. Is Greece so afraid of Israel that they're willing to face complicity in piracy and international laws of the seas? What has the world come to when sovereign nations are so cowardly afraid of a small country like Israel? That's pretty sad. The only good news, is that all of the detainees are being dropped off in Greece, instead of being taken to Israel. What Greece will do with them is another question. What will the IDF do to them before dropping them off? I guess the world will find out soon enough. Then what?
Varoufakis says that after Greece was beaten into submission by EU leaders during the debt crisis, and after they capitulated, they very quickly switched from having supported Palestinians for ages, to kowtowing to Israel. It was interesting. I was following the debt crisis story, but missed that part of it at the time.
The current Greek government is pretty useless on a lot of counts. Shameful.
Well, I think they're mainly afraid of EU leaders like France and Germany, and since those countries support Israel, Greece bows down to Israel as well. Not comepletely sure, but that's my take.
They think they're the only ones that have been victims of genocide??? They're not. Native Americans don't go around killing every white person they see. Many of the people in Africa can barely survive much less lash out at their oppressors and colonizers. Not that they would. They just… People want to live. What about Australia? Populated with descendants of prisoners!! Israel and the Israelis that support the current regime are beyond beyond and have nothing to do with Judaism at all. They need to be called out. I'm calling.
Thank you for your on-going and excellent coverage of what is happening with the flotilla and, as important, the response of Euoprean and international leaders to the illegal and unnecessary violence and destruction by Israel, in response to the humanitarian outreach of the flotilla and the world, to Gaza and the West Bank. I wonder if the presense of Naval Guardians from international Naval forces would be an effective deterant if they accompanied the flotilla as a peace keeping forces at sea? Can governments use their naval forces for protection and as guardians of people from their and other nations, to support and protect flotilla vessels and participants?
Nah, There’s No Racism In America: Nazi Republican SCOTUS
As was expected the heavy handed Federalist Society laden SCOTUS has now completely eroded the VRA in yesterday's ruling in Louisiana v Callais delegitimizing Section 2(https://bit.ly/4t1r7Lx) The conservative Court has been hard at work to get rid of the last of the VRA for the last 20+ years and they finally accomplished what chief justice Roberts(when appointed in 2005 he made VRA a target) has called “unnecessary” rights of minority groups since the country has moved far beyond where it was in the 1960’s In essence the court has leaned on the idea that racism no longer exists, giving it the excuse to get rid of voting rights protections in red heavy states
Now that the Court has ruled so this puts in play many red states legislatures to gerrymander the heck out of their already gerrymandered maps to increase the numbers of CNPP(Christian Nationalist Ped Party) reps in these states As the has said over the decades the VRA gave unfair advantage to the Democrats and now that the VRA has been dismissed, it’s time for the Nazi Republicans to make hay
This is even more reason for heavy voter turnout for the midterms to show the CNPP that immorality, lying, and fraud are not what WE the People want our government to be about In her dissent, Kagan said that under the court’s decision, “a State can, without legal consequence, systematically dilute minority citizens’ voting power” It’s time for SCOTUS reform to dilute the power of the court and make it more reflective of the American people’s opinion as racism is NOT dead in America and WE the People deserve righteous representation not partisan gerrymandering Show Up To VOTE
This is as much about the world's failure as it is about the evilness of the Israeli State and their people. This is one of those few situations that the regime and their people are all but the same just as Rich Germany and German people of 1930s were the same.

Spain certainly isn't "playing." Good on Sanchez!
Israel is proving time and again that they are the evil. The US is not any better.
They are the terrorists, NOT HAMAS .
I'd argue the US is the lesser evil just because we're not openly going full Holocaust like Netanyahu clearly is. But given how bad our behavior also is, it kinda feels like debating whether Imperial Japan or Nazi Germany was worse.
Some principled nation ought to nab Netanyahu the way the U.S. took Maduro. A one-way ticket to The Hague.
That would be the most righteous decision any nation could commit to.
Piracy is the correct frame for this. Netanyahu is a monster and Trump is his shield.
Netanyahu has replaced Hitler as the most evil person in the world.
Hitler never targeted children specificaly

No, it’s common sense!
Pirates of the Mediterranean for sure.

I guess there's the answer to my question. They are afraid of the Israeli boogeyman. You're right, it's shameful.

Very possible. Greece has changed a lot since I was there over Christmas of 1983.
USA does it routinely! Seize who they choose anywhere they choose! So just business as usual on the high seas! Outrage all you want will do zero good.
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Israel has long been out of control and we aren’t doing a thing to stop them.
Genocide is an ugly look.
They think they're the only ones that have been victims of genocide??? They're not. Native Americans don't go around killing every white person they see.

Piracy on the high seas is an abomination. Stopping humanitarian aid destined to help the survivors in Palestine is the worst kind.
This is as much about the world's failure as it is about the evilness of the Israeli State and their people. This is one of those few situations that the regime and their people are all but the same just as Rich Germany and German people of 1930s were the same.
