in good news, many many more civilian ships have launched and are en route to gaza in response to the sumud mission being intercepted and kidnapped, organized by the gaza freedom flotilla and the thousand madleens to gaza initiatives. among them is a returning star, the 'Conscience,' part of an earlier flotilla mission

while the sumud crew are still largely detained in the occupation's brutal prisons, promised to be treated as 'terrorists,' the sumud flotilla preoccupied enough of the zionist navy that palestinians were able to fish off the shores of gaza. the sumud's 'mikeno' boat was also the first to puncture the besieged gazan sea since 2009
greta is set to be deported from the colony soon, so i've heard. the other 450-or-so sailors still need our help. find one from your country or state, make those phone lines ring. as far as i know, it is the duty of nations to protect their citizens in international waters and we should be alarmed that they aren't
free all of our dear sailors. free all of palestine. long live the palestinian resistance and the palestinian people
also, seeing footage of endless palestinian flags on the stolen flotilla ships waving in the wind as they enter occupation ports was beautiful. may the occupation never know a day of peace. let there always be those unmistakable reminders of what the settlers wish to hide. may we see the end of zionist occupation within our lifetime
if you want someone to tell you which sailor to fight for, i'll tell you carsie blanton. she's got "hooks / chutzpah / revolutionary optimism." i had the chance to see her live last year, an intimate set at someone's barn. one of the few artists willing to put herself in the line of fire for a chance at a better world and she must be freed. if you've heard "little flame" at an action, that's her writing
