Headline after headline fails to mention that seizing the ships and kidnapping humanitarians violates international law. Instead the articles repeat Israeli propaganda.

This is how Western media normalizes Israel’s crimes.

    Why are you shifting the blame from israel? Many of the antisemitism act are direct result of israel genocide. You should blame israel who try to associate antizionism to antisemitism

    I saw a video of gazan fishing ton of fish because israel intention was shifted to the flotillas

      People who take part in these crimes are responsible for committing them. People who defend those crimes are guilty of defending them. No person is responsible for the crimes of the IDF and Israeli government just because this person is born in Israel or of Jewish descent.

      I don’t go beating up Germans with Russian grandparents, because Putin is trying to eradicate Ukraine. It’s not their fault.

        You don’t get it. I do not justify it. I acknowledge that is it wrong and i also acknowledge the issue so we csn fine a solution to reduce hate crimes for everybody. Something that they don’t tell you is that both antisemitism and antimuslims increased because of the genocide in Gaza
