Let's make this absolutely clear: Israel attacking a ship sailing under the flag of the UK and kidnapping it's international crew including Greta Thunberg and Member of European Parliament Rima Hassan is Piracy and Terrorism.

A solidarity from workes all over the world against genocide in Gaza, not only at French:
>The cargo ship that was supposed to bring weapons to Israel left Fos-sur-Mer without its cargo.
June 7, 2025 Good News , War , Middle East , Solidarity
-There can be no talk of "participation in the ongoing genocide orchestrated by the Israeli government." The dockworkers at the port of Fos-sur-Mer near Marseille said this and put it into practice.
"This week, everything happened very quickly. On June 4, the investigative media outlet Disclose revealed that an Israeli cargo ship was scheduled to dock in the French port the following day to secretly load 14 tons of spare parts for machine guns. These parts are manufactured by the French company Eurolinks, based in Marseille. Immediately after this information became known, the CGT port workers' union in Fos-sur-Mer announced that the "container of Eurolinks links [...] had been made available" and that the workers would not "load it onto the ship."
Not only were these critical military components for assembling ammunition left at the dock, but the dockworkers also blocked two other containers of rifle barrels from the Aubert et Duval company that were to be transported to Israel on the same ship. On Friday, June 6, the ship finally departed without the cargo it was supposed to pick up in France. The CGT (Central European Customs Workers' Union) subsequently supported the action, declaring: "Customs officials do not want to be complicit in this genocide. Customs can enforce an export ban on weapons and weapon parts, so let's do it!"
In retaliation, police arrested the general secretary of the CGT union at the port of Marseille. He was "interrogated for several hours by investigators from the finance brigade" about a 2014 case that apparently had nothing to do with the union action. A low-level maneuver that creates few illusions.
This fine initiative throws a spotlight on the shame of the French government, which, while publicly claiming to condemn the situation in the Gaza Strip, continues to authorise the supply of weapons of war.
After Fos-sur-Mer, the ship was scheduled to dock in the Italian port of Genoa this weekend. There, too, the workers took the initiative and organized a rally at the port entrance. Dockworkers in this city have been protesting against Saudi arms deliveries for the war in Yemen since 2019. Since then, the dockworkers have organized themselves into a collective and regularly protest against their involvement in war crimes. For example, they refused to load containers destined for Israel in 2023.
Last summer, a massive US military tanker capable of carrying 300,000 barrels of fuel crossed the Mediterranean to supply and refuel Israeli warplanes. In Spain, the ship was prevented from docking in Gibraltar due to the mobilization of pro-Palestinian groups. It was unable to dock at the port on July 30, 2024.
Further actions took place outside Europe. On April 20, 1,500 people demonstrated in Tangier, a major port in northern Morocco, against the docking of a container ship chartered by the Danish shipping company Maersk. It was suspected of transporting parts for military aircraft to Israel.
Dockworkers in Tangier refused to load the equipment: "18 of the 20 crane operators on the first shift" went on strike. Two days earlier, a large demonstration against the ship's arrival in Morocco had taken place in Casablanca, leading to clashes with police. On April 14, the Moroccan Dockworkers' Union called on "workers, users, and infrastructure managers in the port of Casablanca to boycott the ship."
In the fall of 2023, the port of Oakland, California, was blockaded for several days to prevent a ship loaded with weapons bound for Israel from leaving. Hundreds of people took turns disrupting port operations, while others chained themselves to the ship's entrance.
War relies primarily on logistics: the production and supply of weapons, technology, fuel, transport, etc. Without workers, no military operation is possible. Strikes and blockades have always been the best means of preventing militaristic massacres and genocides.

Communities Fight Against ICE Detentions in Los Angeles
Tensions escalated in Los Angeles on Friday following a series of federal immigration raids that resulted in the kidnapping of dozens of people. Unfolding across multiple sites, the raids were part of US President Donald Trumpโs intensified ethnicprogram cleansing against migrants.
People poured into the streets to throw rocks at ICE vehicles, swarmed agents, burned ICE vehicles, and chased down agents in the street.
According to local media, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents targeted precarious workers at several locations, including a Home Depot in the Westlake District, an apparel store in the Fashion District, and a clothing warehouse in South Los Angeles. Television footage showed unmarked, military-style vehicles and vans transporting uniformed agents throughout the city.
The Los Angeles City News Service reported that dozens were taken into custody, though ICE has not yet issued an official statement.
By evening, protests had erupted in downtown Los Angeles in response to the raids. Demonstrators gathered near a federal court building, where anti-ICE slogans were spray-painted on the walls. Crowds also massed near a nearby jail believed to be holding some of the detainees.
Live footage from Reuters showed LAPD officers in riot gear forming lines in the street, equipped with batons and tear gas rifles. After ordering protesters to disperse, police declared an unlawful assembly. Fearless protesters reportedly threw chunks of broken concrete, prompting police to respond with volleys of tear gas, pepper spray, and flash-bang rounds.
It was unclear whether any arrests were made during the confrontation. LAPD spokesperson Drake Madison confirmed that those who refused to leave the area were subject to arrest.
One of those detained during the raids was David Huerta, president of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) of California. According to an SEIU statement, Huerta was injured and taken into custody by ICE while observing enforcement activity at one of the raid locations.
ICE did not respond to requests for comment on Huertaโs detention.
The LAPD backed up ICE by attacking the rebellion that followed. Trump exacerbated the situation, deploying 2,000 national guard troops. Nonetheless grafiti was spotted in the area reading, โKill ICE.โ
The Genesis Abraham is the Future, not the Antique, Primordial Past. Abimelech and Pharaoh are the Christian Church. The Seed of Abraham is in the World Today but not of the Christian World Order. The Deeper Meaning of Abimelech and Sarah in Genesis.
The Book of Genesis is a prophecy about the Christian age. It uses emblems to tell a deeper spiritual story, which is wrongly interpreted by many Christians and Jews to be totally literal history. But Genesis is not literal history--Genesis is the prophetic future!
This is too funny, but I'm an old enough fart to have used a slide-rule. My early study for a 1st Class Radio Telephone license included calculating by slide rule. Fortunately, I picked up a used HP-35 calculator for $320 before I actually took the FCC test. The test WITH the calculator took me 4 hours and I ran out of battery at the end of the test. But I passed.

There are more of you than there will ever be of the LAPD. They've known that since Rodney King. Push them aside, get the ICE and National Guards perpetrating this, and expose, unmask, and dox all of them on live stream.
@pluralistic OK so I love the name "The Newbury Street Irregulars" so much I wish some Boston tech meetup could adopt it without engaging in copyright violation ๐
It's interesting that ICE is conducting these raids in cities like LA, San Diego, Minneapolis, Chicago, where they know they will face extreme opposition, but huge agribusinesses in places like Kristi Noem's South Dakota go untouched.
Krist Noem, who was Governor from 2019 to 2025, helped boost the stateโs thriving dairy farms that generate $7.2 billion a year. Much of that growth wouldnโt have been possible without state and federal officials looking the other way at the legal status of the farm hands who pull the long shifts needed to keep the milk flowing.
Itโs theater. In a city you can drive up in a couple vans, flash some military hardware around, flex in front of the media. Not so easy if you have to drive for miles over country roads, plus itโs less likely thereโll be any media types tagging along to hype it up and incite both sides. If they really wanted to make their quotas theyโd go to the farms. But thatโs just not good tv.
It's a deliberate organized provocation of unrest.
The Trump regime is searching for the matches to set their own Reichstag on fire, hoping it will enable them to proclaim extraordinary emergency powers.
They will call the protesters & resisters "insurrectionists" while engaging in their own organized subversive insurrection against the constitutional order, the Rule of Law, democracy, civil liberties & rights. It's a coup in the making.
Calmness, coolness & nonviolent civil disobedience facing the Trump regime's provocations are the call of the hour. Don't hand them the pretext to grab total dictatorial power. ๐โโฎ
French journalist Yanis Mhamdi (working for @blast_info) aboard the #Madleen, at 1:49 AM CEST:
โI am a journalist, and after covering the Freedom Flotilla convoy for a week, my arrest by the Israeli army is imminent. Humanitarians and journalists should not be arrested. I call on all my colleagues to mobilize.โ
Im already seeing people in a tizzy, declaring the residents in the LA as "peaceful."
Stop. You're only helping the fascists.
The media gets paid to convince the people that our lives don't matter. That we aren't allowed to defend ourselves or our communities. That murder pigs have every right to execute us as they please.
The gestapo brought violence to the LA area. If local pigs, fed pigs and military pigs don't have the guts, moral fiber, or wherewithal to disobey, they deserve nothing.
If they die because they decided to obey fascist orders and lay seige to a city that was minding its own business, good. Becoming a "good" fascist is about the best thing they can do.
Self and community defense should be encouraged, aided, lionized.
Fascist pigs should be demonized, defenestrated, and given no quarter.
And the media should not be aided and abetted at determining who gets to live and die. Because if you haven't figured out yet, that media is not going to side with you.

Imagine a girl crossing the Mediterranean to bring some food to starving people.
And imagine that girl being told that โshe canโt get anywhere near Gazaโ, because her act of bringing food to dying people is an โantisemitic act of terrorโ.
The problem is that Israel is ruled by Nazi lunatics.
Nazi lunatics who have lost all touch with reality and throw the โantisemiticโ insult to anyone who doesnโt agree with their genocide - theyโre broken records by now.
There can be no justice and fairness in a world where we let those lunatics survive and thrive. We need a new Nuremberg trial for these criminals, and we need it now.
