These actions are a direct extension of Israel's genocidal policies in Palestine and Lebanon.
Once again, the genocidal Israeli regime is brazenly subjecting Flotilla volunteers to abuse, despite global scrutiny and international attention.
But it is nothing compared to what the 10,000 Palestinian political prisoners
- including 450+ children - held illegally and without the same international visibility, are suffering amid Israel's impunity and the complicit silence of the international community.
