    Apparently a flotilla flying isntreal flags has appeared, no info yet on what this is.

    I don’t think you could actually find 200 people in “Israel” who are decent and are boat owners, so probably nothing good. Also, the flags.

      would be so fucking funny if it was a “freedom floatilla” being sent to israel as a propaganda stunt. “israel needs aid! look what we have to do to get it to them all because of KKKhamas!!!”

        Considering the statistics on “Israeli” opinions, doubtful. Low chance there are 200 anti-zionists in the entire country who own boats, never mind 200 who would be willing to use the boats for this.

          No, I mean deception by non-“Israelis”, using the zionist flag to try to get the IOF to let them go about their business. I doubt it, and I’d be even more doubtful it would work. But it’s a fun thought.

            They set off from within “Israel” (edit: I think). The non-“Israelis” there would be Palestinians, who know that the deception would never work. If they were looking to drastically risk their lives this way, I don’t think they would bother pretending to be “Israeli” nationalists. The simplest explanation is the best, this is a fleet of genocidal nationalists attempting to intimidate Palestinians and their allies.
