"I was hung from the metal shackles on my wrists and ankles and beaten on my stomach, back, face, ear, and skull by a group of men and women guards, one of whom sat on my neck and face, blocking my airways."
Noa Avishag Schnall, a Jewish photojournalist who reported from the Conscience vessel of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, gave her testimony after being released from Israeli detention.
all three countries now recognise palestine while simultaneously arming israel and allowing the genocide against the palestinian people to continue. a pathetic gesture that means nothing without sanctions and ceasing to sell arms to israel.
Here we go AGAIN. Iโm SICK of saying it, but Iโll say it again. Asylum seekers canโt claim benefits. You need an NI number to do that. Asylum seekers arenโt staying in 5* hotels. Asylum seekers get ยฃ49.18p a week to live on. Could YOU live on that? NOPE. So stop pretending theyโre living it large.
Context that must be included in news reports: The Madleen is a civilian vessel, it is UK-flagged, it is carrying humanitarian aid, everyone on board is unarmed, and it was sailing in international waters.

I will forever be haunted by this footage.
Trawling has only been filmed underwater a few times in documentary history, and never with such clarity.
Whatโs so heart-rending about these shots is watching how the animals donโt just get swept up โ they swim for their lives.
The end of humanity as we know it. The death of humanitarianism as we know it. Israel is committing genocide and the international community allows this to happen. Gaza is being forcibly starved by Israel and the international community allows this to happen.
Speaking as an atheist I am genuinely very sad to hear this news. Francis spoke out consistently for social justice, for environmental protection, highlighted the evils of capitalism, and throughout the last 18 months condemned the mass murder of Palestinians.
