Israel releases Humanitarian Hostages

Thiago Ávila llega a su tierra Sao Paulo y es recibido por la militancia por Palestina después de haber sido secuestrado por el ente ocupante. Además, su esposa y su hija lo esperaban en el aeropuerto.

City News is reporting that "Israel deported two activists on Sunday after being detained for slightly over a week for leading an aid flotilla attempting to break the Israeli naval blockade of the Gaza Strip."

"The two, Spanish-Swedish citizen of Palestinian origin Saif Abukeshek and Brazilian citizen Thiago Ávila, were among dozens of activists intercepted by the Israeli navy off the coast of Crete. Both are members of the Global Sumud Flotilla’s steering committee, whose mission is to break Israel’s naval blockade and bring some humanitarian aid to the Palestinian territory."

First off, the disgusting misrepresentation of this heinous act is outrageous. The headline reads Israel deports 2 activists detained for leading an aid flotilla to Gaza. Deports two activists. They released two hostages they illegally kidnapped in international waters and brought to Israel to be tortured.

They were on a humanitarian mission to provide food to civilians being brutalized in war like the Red Cross or the Red Crescent. Israel has been starving those civilians for three years, blocking aid and killing aid workers. The way the media is misrepresenting these defiant atrocities is shocking. 

Saif Abu Keshek is in Athens. This is what he had to say. Thiago Ávila is back in Brazil. Starving civilians. Blocking humanitarian aid. Killing aid workers and launching double tap air strikes to murder emergency workers. These are the atrocities we see while the mainstream media rationalizes them with lies. 

Fascism is just as bad as Communism. Reject the Agenda.

I don't agree with all of Thiago Ávila's political opinions. He uses similar key words that Mick Wallace and Clare Daly use like anti Imperialism. He also supports fake environmentalism for that anti Imperialism Agenda which like ANTIFA, uses atrocities and a manufactured emergency to justify a one world Communist government run by the United Nations.

Again Fascism and Communism are both wrong. It's not a choice between one or the other. It's denouncing both extremes and finding a healthy balance between the two. It's not letting one extreme con us into embracing the other. It's seeing through the con and the manufactured emergency to find a much more healthier solution without either extremism. That is peace.
