If they do this to human rights activists in broad daylight, imagine what they do to Palestinians when none is looking…

When journalists, aid workers, and civilians seeking to provide humanitarian aid are detained, mistreated, or intimidated, the international community must not remain silent.

Human rights are not a selective principle that applies only when it is politically convenient. It is precisely in difficult times that the rule of law must be upheld.

The question is not only what happened, but also why so many governments and politicians continue to look the other way as more and more testimonies come to light.

History will judge not only those who committed injustices, but also those who remained silent while it was happening.

Why is Trump protecting Israels abuse and terror from European sanctions? Americans cant be bothered to force trumps hand with strikes? Meanwhile Europeans: (who also strike for way less)

    If you see Bibi’s statement about it, he only condemns that the actions aren’t in line with “Israel’s values” (which is bullshit), but goes on to say that all of these flotilla members are Hamas operatives and that they should be punished.

    So speaking out of both sides of his mouth in the same breath.
