"They tied [Greta Thunberg's] hands behind her back with the Israeli flag and made her walk. They didn't give us clean water,they told us to drink from the toilets. We went nearly 40 hours without food. We saw mothers writing their children’s names on the walls. We actually experienced a little bit of what Palestinians go through." - Activist Aycin Kantoglu

"They tortured Greta very severely before our eyes. [...] They dragged little Greta by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others" - Journalist Ersin Celik

"Greta Thunberg, a brave woman, is only 22 years old. She was humiliated and wrapped in an Israeli flag and exhibited like a trophy." -Journalist Lorenzo Agostino

"It was a disaster. They treated us like animals." - Singer-songwriter and humanitarian activist, Hazwani Helmi

"We stayed with reverse handcuffs for 5 hours. When we went to prison, they didn't give us water, we had to drink water from the toilet." - Author Said Ercan

"When we showed our reaction, they increased their violence even more. They tried to keep us under constant pressure in prison, waking us throughout the night and changing our locations." - Doctor Osman Cetinkaya

"They treated us like dogs. They left us hungry for three days. They didn’t give us water; we had to drink from the toilet … It was a terribly hot day, and we were all roasting." - TV presenter Ikbal Gurpinar

Hundreds of peaceful activists from around 45 countries had their aid vessels blasted repeatedly with water canons and boarded by Israeli navy. Their communication systems were jammed and their ships were unlawfully seized and brought to Israel. The activists were then kidnapped and tortured in Israeli prisons against their will.

The quoted statements above are what we know from individual activists from the Global Sumud Flotilla.

The words of Aycin Kantoglu are important: "We actually experienced a little bit of what Palestinians go through."

She is correct. They were denied clean water and medicine, kept awake, moved from place to place, starved, dehumanized, and had their bodies used to generate Israeli propaganda. They endured this terror for days. This is terrible. And this is only a glimpse of the terror that Palestinians have endured.

My friend Fadel (@fadel-danii) and his family have been denied access to clean water and starved for months. They have been forcibly displaced over and over again. They are kept awake with the sound of bombings and the insects and animals that get inside their damaged tent. He has struggled for two years to afford his medications.

Donate to Help the injured Fadel and save his family, organized by Fadel Aldany

My name is Fadel Al-Dany, a 23-year-old third-year IT student. My life hasn't … Fadel Aldany needs your support for Help the injured Fadel a

While the activists detained for attempting to deliver aid are being released, Fadel and his family are trapped where they are without any assurance they will soon be somewhere safe.

They cannot simply return home at the end of this suffering and be treated for their injuries, because their house was destroyed, their healthcare infrastructure and doctors are constantly under attack, their land is being killed, their water polluted, and there is no clear end in sight.

Fadel started this fundraising campaign to afford travel to a hospital that could perform surgery to remove shrapnel that pierced his body during the bombing of his family's home. His campaign was verified and shared by @90-ghost and @a-shade-of-blue, and was vetted by @gazavetters (#197 on the gazavetters spreadsheet). That was early summer of 2024. It has been over a year since then, and he has still not raised these funds.

His family has been displaced to southern Gaza and are struggling to afford water, food, medicine, and supplies to repair their damaged tent. Please donate what you can.

Can anyone bear my pain and what I am going through? I have been injured for more than 400 days and the metal fragments are still stuck in my body and I need an urgent surgery and everyone is ignoring me. Please wake up and look at me, please stand by me. I am in dire need of your donations for my surgery. Please do not ignore me.!!!!

[el-shab-hussein]

Hey guys. This was posted by my friend Mohammed Ayesh, who's the on-the-ground vetter for our list of verified fundraisers. Despite the horrifying situation, he maintains a smile. He has lost a lot of weight, something that saddens me to see.

What you don't see in this video is that behind the top of that hill, there were tanks. They might've been zionist occupation ones, they might've been American ones. Either way. There were tanks. And soon after they opened fire and rained hell on everyone, while the Ghazzawiyeh were gathered there to get bags of flour.

He described to me the terror that was in his heart as he ran away from this, praying to God asking Him to save him. He promised he would never go back to these again if God saved him. And he made it out alive. He might not have a choice though, he will likely have to go back if it means he can feed his family for a while.

Please. Help him. I don't know what else I can do besides plead for his case. Please help him.

The preliminary phase

[merrilark]

Good US news because I think we all could use some of it:

The Marines are to be withdrawn from LA. The extreme escalation many of us feared did not happen thanks to the people of LA and the soldiers themselves who said "no".

The "Good Trouble Lives On" protests may not have been as big as the previous "Hands Off" and "No Kings" protests (likely due to heat + being planned on a weekday), but still 1.6k protests were held across the USA with thousands joining in with the peaceful protest.

The Trump administration has been ordered to restore $6.2 million in grant funding to nine LGBTQ+ and HIV-related nonprofits. This is fantastic.

Pittsburgh City Council has passed bills to protect its LGBTQ+ citizens.

California has stepped up to partner with and support The Trevor Project. Let's go, Cali!

Another win for California: Reports show that California is powered by two-thirds clean energy. This is a historic first and it keeps getting better!

The ACLU of Louisiana has secured the release of two wrongfully detained Iranian LSU students.

The Republican governor of New Hampshire has defied her party and shot down a book banning bill.

Shareholders have pushed back on corporations' anti-DEI proposals, forcing companies to face the fact that diversity is good for business... And reminds us that the majority does not agree with the removal of DEI, no matter what MAGA wants us to believe.

Since November, 69 of the 110 Supreme Court lawyers tasked with defending the Trump admin's policies have quit.

Don't let anyone tell you that there isn't hope, that there aren't people fighting and working and just as scared and angry as you are. You are not alone. Peaceful protests, contacting reps, and simple non-cooperation is how we sustainably and successfully push back against authoritarianism.

"We're cooked" is the devil talking. Giving up, rolling over, and perpetuating the idea that we've already failed is exactly what MAGA wants. Don't give them the satisfaction. Don't make it easy. Continue to look after each other and support your communities where you can. Keep protesting, keep calling, keep writing, keep loving. The heart is a muscle the size of your fist; we can get through this as long as we continue to stand up and say "no".

THE ENTIRE WEST IS BEING PUT UP FOR SALE AND I AM BEGGING YOU TO CALL YOUR SENATORS

Trump’s budget bill has many, many things in it, but buried amongst it is the MILLIONS OF ACRES OF PUBLIC LAND FOR SALE.

This is the entirety of the Arizona state forests, the entire Cascades mountain range. Swathes of pristine desert around the national parks in Utah. On the doorstep of Jackson Hole.

THIS BILL IS BIG, BUT IT CAN BE AMENDED AND ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT PASS AS IS please.

If you have ever enjoyed the wilderness, we stand to lose it all forever.

CALLING your senators - NOT JUST IN THE WEST. ALL SENATORS, is CRUCIAL.

Outdoor alliance has a great resource for reaching out.

Public Lands For Sale: Outdoor Alliance Map Shows the Extent of Land on the Auction Block — Outdoor Alliance

The Senate’s spending package could offer up nearly 300 million acres of public lands for sale—a vast area that includes nearly 100,000 mile

I don’t have a huge following but please, everywhere I have ever loved, the forests I grew up playing in, the land I got married on, is all at risk and I am begging.
