An estimated Twenty-seven ships to set sail for Gaza from multiple ports to break Israel’s siege on the enclave.
This will be activist Greta Thunberg’s second mission, having been taken captive by Israel earlier this year when her ship and fellow crew members were sprayed with illicit chemicals and boarded unlawfully in international waters. The Handala and her crew also suffered a similar fate earlier this summer.
Dozens of people gathered on Saturday at the port of Barcelona where a flotilla will set sail for Gaza on Sunday. Swedish activist Greta Thunberg is hoping to break… the naval blockade imposed by Israel along the coast of the Gaza Strip since 2007… (AP video and production by Hernan Munoz)

Lotta fuckin nerve, that one has, to willingly subject herself to being attacked by the Israeli military AGAIN…People should remember this shit when they hear people in the Rogan-sphere calling her a “crisis actor” or “new world order shill”, or what dumb shit they’ll inevitably say.
She’s got more morals and conviction that any of those little bitches.
Other volunteers are as valuable
Agreed, but there’s no one on board with the same public face as Greta.
You are right about that
… if not more so.
Greta brings awareness but I’m not sure what capabilities she brings to the flotilla.
She’s also less likely to be disappeared than others.
Honestly I feel this is her playing to her advantages - Israel can (and does) sink ships carrying aid - and while I have utmost respect for the crews and aid volunteers on those ships - Israel doesn’t - and having a high profile person on board that Israel knows is bad PR if they kill provides some safety for the whole crew.
I don’t disagree , i just think it is important to talk about the other too
Publicity
Rogan said they were going to turn Greta into “hamburger”.
Because he’s so charming.
Do you watch things made by people you dislike to stay upset?
