It’s time to shut it down for a FREE PALESTINE.
The Israeli attack on the Global Sumud Flotilla has begun. The time to respond is NOW.
Hit the streets: shut down embassies, parliaments and corporations complicit in manufacturing in the genocide.

As I watch Israel's illegal abduction of the only humans who have risked their lives to break Israel's unlawful blockade, my thoughts are with the people of Gaza, trapped in Israel's killing fields.
Shame on Western governments first and foremost, and their complicit inaction.

Israel attacks the Global Sumud Flotilla, continues to starve Palestinians in Gaza. Escalate peaceful disruptive action now. #DisruptComplicity

Court adjourned & judgment reserved

@MasifundiseDT @Greenpeaceafric @TheGreenConnect 51/ Ferreira concludes by asking why Impact & #Shell so keen for this Court to "panel beat" the SCA ruling? The answer is obvious - they don't want to have to go through the onerous process of consultation required by the law. They want the easy way out. #SaveTheWildCoast
