Footage from the Israeli Occupation Forces assault on #Conscience, shortly before dawn. In international waters, close to Palestinian territorial waters. Another act of state piracy by the rogue, lawless Israeli occupation.

Cops misled journalists about using a powerful surveillance tool to track a woman across state lines because she had an abortion, then tried to cover it up when we found out the truth. Huge story from @jasonkoebler.bsky.social and @josephcox.bsky.social this morning: www.404media.co/police-said-...
Police Said They Surveilled Woman Who Had an Abortion for Her 'Safety.' Court Records Show They Considered Charging Her With a Crime
Court records show that the narrative Flock and a Texas Sheriff's Office has told the public isn't the whole story, and that police were conducting a 'death investigation' into the abortion.

fx has spent 20 years since its creation trying to establish that hunting & abusing humans on spurious grounds starting from migration status is a good thing, whilst trying to convert anyone who will listen to that view, amidst funding & enticements…

We shouldn’t have to say this in 2025: hunting human beings is illegal––like many of Frontex’s activities, from cooperating with the Hellenic Coastguard to sharing the location of migrant boats with Libya, for which we have taken the agency to Court.

Pourquoi j’ai embarqué sur un bateau de la flottille pour Gaza

Par Isaline Choury Amalric
Pourquoi j’ai embarqué sur un bateau de la flottille pour Gaza
Je suis la nièce de Danielle Casanova, résistante morte dans le terrible camp de Birkenau. Et la fille du résistant Maurice Choury qui a lancé une insurrection victorieuse à Ajaccio contre l’occupant. Toute mon enfance, j’ai vécu avec les récits du courage des résistants, des horreurs des déportations. J’ai entendu « Plus jamais ça ! ». Embarquée sur le « Conscience » à l’âge de 83 ans, je suis la doyenne des passagers de la flottille pour Gaza.
