🚨 ALL EYES on the Sumud Flotilla 🚨⁣

As the Sumud Flotilla nears Israel’s illegally designated and enforced yellow zone demarking a maritime siege of Gaza, we repeat our call upon the international community to ensure the safety and success of the peaceful people’s aid mission.⁣
While Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are puffing themselves up in front of the U.S. military leaders at Quantico, I would like to remind everyone of an important historical detail: “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.
