"Silence is more dangerous than sailing to Gaza" ~Greta Thunberg
"A new Freedom Flotilla vessel is sailing towards Gaza to try to break Israel’s siege."
"The first mission was halted when a drone attack damaged the ship in international waters."
"Thunberg is on board, among 11 other international activists attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians."

US-CIA-sraeli "Aid" Plan Is Weapon in Netanyahu’s War of Annihilation In Gaza
The GHF "was established by people with ties to the CIA & Israeli intelligence"
It is intended to "serve as part of Netanyahu’s war of annihilation."
Netanyahu said he was getting pressure even from his most passionate backers in the GOP "that they didn’t want the optics of starving Palestinians"

"Trump’s Useful Idiots"
Columbia, Princeton & Harvard "are not incubators of hatred towards Jews."
The NYT "is slavishly subservient to the Zionist narrative."
"What these institutions have in common is not antisemitism, but liberalism."
"The bankrupt liberal class, by signing on for the Zionist witch hunt & refusing to condemn Israel for its genocide, provided the bullets to its executioners.

Analysis: A recent poll shows that close to half of [Jewish] Israelis support exterminating all Palestinians.
The poll question: "Do you support the claim that the IDF, in conquering an enemy city, should act in a manner similar to the way the Israelites did when they conquered Jericho under the leadership of Joshua, i.e., to kill all its inhabitants."
"47% of all respondents said yes."

82% support forced expulsion of Palests from Gaza.

Report: While western media outlets, even now, refuse to use the term "genocide" for the Israeli assault on Gaza...
near unanimously, experts say it IS a genocide per the legal definition under the Genocide Convention. Israeli expert Shmuel Letterman says that is now the consensus view among genocide researchers.

Analysis: Trump welcomes South African Afrikaners as refugees fleeing “white genocide."
Trump describes these white descendants of Dutch settler-colonisers as "victims of unjust racial discrimination".
South Africans are joking about this as the "Great Tsek", which refers to:
1. The "Great Trek" — the 1800s migration of Dutch settlers into South Africa's interior, &
2. The word "tsek" - roughly meaning "f*ck off.”

Analysis: Why many Americans are unaware of Gazans' weekly non-violent protests before Oct 7:
Every week, 1000s of Gazans participated in a nonviolent, Gandhian march to end the Israeli blockade.
And every week, Israeli snipers mowed down dozens of them, killing and maiming unarmed people of all ages.
The Israelis called such massacres "mowing the lawn".

Report: "The Anti-Defamation League now says criticizing the use of US weapons in Gaza is ‘antisemitic'."
"The Anti-Defamation League’s mission is to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment for all.”
"But over the past year that mission has stretched to include defending some of the world’s biggest weapons companies" from shareholder demands.
