Plastic surgeons and orthopedic specialists from the UK are based at the Amal and Nasser hospitals in Khan Younis in the south of the territory.

For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it.

However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

New York Flotilla for Freeing Gilad Shalit

New York Flotilla for Freeing Gilad Shalit

Those who really desire freedom and peace in the Middle East may like to board this ship.In Support OF GILAD SHALIT

Gilad Shalit supporters are turning the anti-Israel flotilla fad into a positive effort to sail in a rally for the freedom of kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit. This Thursday will mark four years since Hamas and allied terrorists kidnapped him at an Israeli checkpoint near Gaza.

The “True Freedom” flotilla of covered boats will sail, rain or shine, at noon Thursday from Manhattan’s Pier 40. At least four boats will sail, including two of them capable of accommodating 500 people each, according to the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, which is sponsoring the event.

The organization told Israel National News that Conference director Malcolm Hoenlein came up with the idea of the flotilla, which has been a favorite gimmick the past year by pro-Hamas supporters trying to end Israel’s anti-terrorist maritime blockade of Hamas-controlled Gaza.

The boats will sail pass the Statue of Liberty and the United Nations before returning to Pier 40 around 2 p.m. EDT.

The flotilla’s is "to remind the international body and the world of the real siege in Gaza and call for the release of Gilad Shalit,” the Conference stated.

He remains held in total isolation with no access to the International Red Cross or other humanitarian bodies, contrary to the Geneva Convention. Since his capture, Hamas has provided only two indications that Gilad is still alive – a recorded message of his voice released two years ago and a video of him released last October.

Hamas has refused Israeli offers to free up to 1,000 terrorists and prisoners in exchange for Shalit.

Supporters will be able to gather on the East River Esplanade to view and encourage the flotilla, whose passengers are invited guests and journalists. The entrance is on the east side of First Avenue at 34th, 35th or 37th Streets. (IsraelNationalNews.com)

...FROM HASBARA?

And dont forget that other Israeli captive who was kidnapped from Italy and has spent nearly thirty years imprisoned, mostly in solitary confinement.
Thats right, Mordechai Vanunu. Is it true he is back in solitary?

But doesn't it just indicate how bankrupt and desperate they are become. It actually backfires by reminding people of the most recent RachelCorrie flotilla IDF atrocities. The legendary chutzpah unravels. Smell of panic off this one.

This is pretty funny, a sail around New York harbour for a couple of hours somehow fails to capture the courage of those who sailed on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla to face helicopter gunships, gunboats and commandos. And while Hamas does indeed hold one person without trial Israel is now holding 17,000 without trial, many of them under 18. I guess they must be reliant on the compliant US media not to mention any of that reality!

maybe they could arrange to have their boat rammed, some people to shoot a few of them in the head from a combat helicopter then a nice interrogation afterwards in which their passports are taken and they are smacked around a bit and names and details are entered in a surveillance database which may effect their free movement and civil liberties for the forseeable future.

Maybe they should consult flotilla survivors for creative direction for their next "performance" for the media!! Bah!
