Disturbing is also the fact that this is taking place on the same day the war criminal prime minister of the Genocidal and apartheid wannabe state is in court for his corruption charges.

Anyhow great respect for the brave activists which have further proven the insanity and thuggery of the supremacist monsters.

It's also the anniversary of the sinking of the USS Liberty in 1967 by Israel, with 34 dead American sailors and hundreds injured.

Actually the ss Liberty was attacked on 8 June. Is it also a coincidence that marines and national guard has been called in to suppress protests in California on the same date?

Never forget the ss Liberty, also, never forget that a U.S. president which endorses israel will not esitate in killing his own soldiers to blame those who stands up to the insanity and brutality of the terrorist and apartheid wannabe state.

Our entire nation is being held hostage by religious fanatics. We are living under the thumb of their two fascist tribes - Democrats and Republicans - enforcing Israeli policy. We have been fully compromised! No more super-PACs.

All Western governments have been captured by Zionist money and their international banks and financial networks.

Another horrendous act by the barbarians that call themselves human. I have shared so much content about the Madleen and what has happened, emailed the governments of the volunteers on the boat, hopefully this will finally highlight the genocide being committed on a daily basis.

Just to emphasise: "Bizarrely, Israel's act of piracy was described by the BBC as "diverting" the Madleen. In what universe was this a diversion? When you capture people in international waters who have committed no crime, you have not diverted them, you have kidnapped them. The crew of the Madleen are hostages.”

Greta and the courageous crew of Madleen must be released immediately and their humanitarian aid cargo distributed as intended. This is a statement without hope of delivery, The IDF and Zionist Israelis are far too cruel for that. But it is a statement in support of Madleen’s intent. Sail on Freedom Flotilla. You have established a great exposé of how lawless and uncontrolled Israel is under Netanyahu's current extremist regime. It will fall. You have played a part.

We need to get the real terrorists (U.S. and allies) out of the middle east.

The idea that someone can invade your home, torture and kill your friends and family and then declare you a terrorist if you defend yourself - this is beyond evil and absurd.

FB suspended my account probably because I support the Palestinian people especially their children. I created this petition to call the West Bank settlements and settlers what they truly are. They illegal Israeli colonies with illegal Israeli colonists living in the West Bank.

Israeli terrorist leadership Netanyahu, Gatz, Smotrich, Ben-Gvirs et al will never negotiate in good faith. They will lie, cheat, distort and deceive at every opportunity. Why, because as soon as a favourable deal is agreed to allow the Palestinian suffering to end, all humanitarian aid to be distributed to the Palestinian people especially their children, foreign journalists and observers, UN peacekeepers to enter Gaza and other occupied territories. Then the extent of Israeli humanitarian depravity will be known. The world knows already and the Zionist ideology and its followers will collapse.

My support and solidarity is, as always, with the people trying to bring hope, food, and other resources to Gaza and the people of Palestine. Israel has illegally kidnapped them, breaking international law to do so, and is now holding them hostage together with the goods stolen from the vessel. The British Government has a legal, an ethical, and a full moral responsibility to act and bring those kidnapped safely out of Israel, unharmed both physically and mentally. Failure to do so implies we are ceding power to Israel over our flag, monarchy, and kingdom, and our Government has resigned its power and status.

All of our countries that bow to the Zionists have abrogated their authority to ZionistIsrael, even some stupid greedy Arab countries have done so.

The actions of Israel are illegal and unwarranted, and the reactions of the UK government and the BBC are sickening.

'Bizarrely, Israel's act of piracy was described by the BBC as "diverting" the Madleen. In what universe was this a diversion? When you capture people in international waters who have committed no crime, you have not diverted them, you have kidnapped them. The crew of the Madleen are hostages, and not only that, Israel is already bragging about how it plans to abuse them."

CEO of BBC is Jewish

It’s nothing to do with being Jewish. It’s to do with being Zionist. The two aren’t synonymous.

Christopher Wild's avatar

Would that were so but I strongly suspect that the two are closely intertwined. How does the man in the street distinguish, when the way things are reported and seen to be handled leads them to that conclusion. We also know that the The Jewish Lobby is well represented in UK and USA via AIPAC which exercises a disproportionate influence on US politics. Biden was a good example - persistently turned a blind eye and deaf ears to realities of supplying munitions etc which he would have known were being used to slaughter innocents in what can only be described as a Turkey Shoot by Israeli military.

AIPAC does not operate in the UK.

Prime Minister Starmer has described himself as a 'lifelong Zionist' and he is not Jewish, although, as you correctly state, his wife is Jewish and closely connected with Israel.

For what it's worth, I am Jewish and anti-Zionist.

The Zionists have many, very many, organizations that operate in maybe countries under different names.

I hear you and the many Jews that hate what the Zionists' are doing to the Palastinians. I know there are Jews that disavow Zionists and want to have the world separate Jews from Zionists, but the Zionists have near total control of the narrative throughout the world. I'm sorry they are using your faith as their shield.

Perfectly correct, except that I have no faith. But that's a very different position from saying that Zionism and Jews are identical and cannot be separated, which was what was being suggested.

Throughout my childhood and teenage years, I experienced anti-semitism in various forms. Since I rejected Zionism over 50 years ago, I have had to put up with accusations of being a traitor and a self-hating Jew, and occasionally further experiences of anti-semitism. And now I find that people supposedly on the same side of Palestinian rights are allowed to assume that I am a Zionist i.e a racist supremacist? Perhaps you can see why I feel occasionally obliged to respond.

On a less personal level, you can't effectively fight an ideology exoressed at state level without an effective understanding of all the forces supporting it.

Who do you consider is the CEO of the BBC? Do you have evidence from a reliable source that this person is Jewish?

Forcing the Madleen twelve to watch video footage from October 7th is a curious thing to do.

Do the Israelis imagine for one moment that there is anything there that is worse than the torrent of killing,maiming and gleeful slaughter that we have been exposed to for months?

Shredded children hanging on concrete walls, a man with learning disabilities targeted by a missile, two kids carrying a bucket and some hoses eradicated by another missile, children with the most grotesque injuries laying on floors with no hope of painkillers,toddlers killed by snipers,entire tower blocks brought down with people still in them.

WTAF.

If our governments were not run by criminals under the orders of criminals, entire flotillas of armed navy vessels would have carried out a beach landing of endless supplies and protected the civilian population since the genocide became apparent.

We must accept that our public servants do not fulfill their roles to serve and dismiss them
