Kolonialism är inte fredlig. Den söker inte samexistens. Kärnan i kolonialism är att tro sig ha rätten att ta nån annans hem. Kolonialism kräver en brutal rasistisk avhumanisering. Den innebär folkmord & förtryck. När det är grundförutsättningen blir det absurt att tala om extremism som något utöver

A week before the invasion, my friend asked me:

- I don't believe there will be an invasion, but I have a question: maybe that's because I have my own house, car, and business, and I can't believe it could all end in one day? You don't have any of this - how do you assess the situation?".

You see the story, it feels wrong, but everyone else around you is just carrying on, shopping, working, going to the cinema. So you do the same. Keep your head down, maybe this is fine? Normal?

According to early reports, EU citizens were kidnapped in international waters, brought to a prison known for its human-rights abuses, and interrogated for hours without access to food, water, or consular assistance. This has got to have consequences.

Helt otroligt att Sveriges inkompetenta regering inte agerar för sina medborgare.

Istället gnäller de om Palestinasjalar, att ngn är högljudd på en demo osv.

Gör ngt. Börja med att skicka ut Israels ambassadör från Sverige.

Olagligt frihetsberövade i strid med internationell rätt! Man skulle även kunna säga kidnappade.

Hur kan det vara så svårt?

Given that the Sumud flotilla was approaching Palestinian, not Israeli waters, it is entirely up to the government of the State of Palestine whether they are allowed in. The UK recognises the State of Palestine. Ergo, the UK must demand that the Israelis respect its right to control its borders.

På internationellt vatten tar sig israelisk militär ombord ett fartyg (igen) och tar människorna ombord till Israel och sätter dem förmodligen i förvar. Kanske folk ska sluta gnälla på jemenitiska pirater och börja göra nåt åt de israeliska?

Israel is not a Jewish homeland. Look what they're doing on Yom Kippour! Having the IDF intercept peace boats full of food for starving children. It does not get more blatant. They cannot claim Israel is the Jewish homeland while they block aid for starving children on Yom Kippour.
