The Flotilla Farce

The latest Gaza flotilla was a propaganda bonanza for the pro-Hamas crowd.

The reason? European elites are looking for excuses to bow to pressure from radicals in their own population, and many have become willing participants in hoaxes that make Israel look bad and the radicals in the flotilla—many of whom are directly associated with Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist organizations—look like victims of Israeli abuse.

The flotilla's strategy was simple: put on a performance where fake "humanitarians" make a show of breaking Israel's blockade on Gaza, claiming to bring vital supplies to a starving population.

It's a farce. The war in Gaza is, for all intents and purposes, over. Nobody is starving, luxury bars and restaurants are open and thriving, and in most parts of Gaza, life is back to normal. There was never a genocide, and most civilians had evacuated the areas where fighting took place. Where they hadn't, Hamas had prevented it.

The blockade exists for a simple reason: to prevent the flow of weapons into the Gaza Strip. Food and supplies flow into Gaza just fine.

As has been documented extensively, the flotilla was a big party/sex cruise for the participants until they arrived at their destination.

Israel stopped the flotilla, arrested the participants, and expelled them.

Several European countries condemned the Israelis for mistreating the participants, based solely on the "testimony" of the propagandists. They loudly condemned Israel as barbaric after tales of rapes and beatings were spread.

"Sex cruise"? Well I think I understand why not-a-Saint Greta is continually angry, :-)  :rimshot:  :bo;t: .
