"Belgische kapitein van Gaza Flotilla liep klaplong op bij Israëlische onderschepping: ‘Wat op die boot gebeurde, was onwerkelijk’

Hoe werd jullie boot op 18 mei overmeesterd?

Arno Meyns: “Die maandag zagen we ’s ochtends tal van Israëlische zodiacs en enkele Israëlische oorlogsschepen rondom onze vloot. Activisten op onze boot namen video’s van hoe andere boten werden onderschept. Toch konden wij ontsnappen. We hebben de hele dag nog doorgevaren. Maar maandagnacht, op 190 mijl (zo’n 306 kilometer, red.) van Gaza, zagen we toch het spotlicht van een drone op ons schip. Ik wist meteen hoe laat het was.

“De entering zelf verliep geweldloos. Vanop een zodiac vroegen Israëlische marineofficieren ons te vertragen en op het voordek te gaan zitten. Maar eenmaal we op het grote ‘gevangenisschip’ gezet werden, sloeg dat helemaal om. Ieder van ons werd over het dek gesleurd. We werden verplicht onze kleren uit te doen. Rondom mij zag ik Israëlische soldaten op zowat elke deelnemer schoppen.”

Belgische kapitein van Gaza Flotilla liep klaplong op bij Israëlische onderschepping: ‘Wat op die boot gebeurde, was onwerkelijk’

Aanvallen met flitsgranaten en tasergeweren, seksueel geweld en urenlange foltering met ijskoud water. Op 18 mei onderschepte het Israëlische leger meer dan vijftig schepen van de Global Sumud Flotilla. De Belg Arno Meyns (34), die meevoer als kapitein van het zeilschip Perseverance, getuigt hoe gewelddadig dat verliep. ‘We moesten op elkaar gaan liggen om warm te blijven.’

Not just the US: How 51 countries armed Israel during Gaza war

An Al Jazeera investigation has found that military-related goods from at least 51 countries and territories continued e

Al Jazeera

Today in Labor History May 31, 2010: Israeli commandos boarded the Turkish ship MV Mavi Marmara, part of a six-boat Gaza Freedom Flotilla, while it was in international waters, and killed ten Turkish civilians, a few of whom may have been armed with metal bars and knives. The flotilla had been organized by the Free Gaza Movement and the Turkish Foundation for Human Rights and Freedoms and Humanitarian Relief (İHH). They were carrying humanitarian aid and construction materials to aid Gazans, living under an Israeli-Egyptian blockade of Gaza. The United Nations Human Rights Commission (UNHRC) concluded that six of the deaths had been summary executions. Israeli commandos boarded the other five ships, too, where activists employed passive resistance without any violent deaths.

A UNHRC report deemed the Israeli blockade of Gaza illegal. In 2013, Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu apologized to Turkey's prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and offered $20 million in compensation. The Freedom Flotilla was the ninth attempt by activists to break the blockade of Gaza.

The Israeli blockade of Gaza began in 2010, in response to the Hamas election victory in 2007. It lasted the entire twelve years until the events of October 7, 2022, when Israel tightened the blockade further and initiated the final stages of their genocide. During the periods of total closure, Israel completely banned all movement of people or goods between Gaza and Israel, the West Bank, and foreign markets, including neighboring Egypt. The world Bank estimates that in 1996, alone, the blockade caused Gaza to lose 40% of its GNP.

Did The Guardian or did the IDF blur parts in this photo ? 🧐 I guess the latter. Does this mean the IDF has become more careful with sharing photos and videos ?

Il Consiglio Regionale di Gush Etzion, nella Cisgiordania occupata da Israele, ha ammesso pubblicamente che all’interno delle sue comunità si sono verificati abusi sessuali rituali su minori, una confessione che segna la prima volta in cui un organo di governo del settore dei coloni sionisti-religiosi in Israele rompe con anni di negazionismo.

Dat daarbij honderden onschuldigen omkomen is dan jammer.
En Nederland doet helemaal niets, sterker nog, Israël wordt zelfs een bondgenoot genoemd!
Israël staat notabene, samen met Hamas op de zwarte lijst van de VN vanwege sexueel geweld in conflictgebieden.
