1/EU governments should firmly condemn Israel's illegal maritime kidnapping of the Madleen crew and demand their citizens are freed immediately.

This morning, the Israeli military boarded and seized the Madleenโ€”a civilian vessel delivering a symbolic amount of aid to Gazaโ€”and kidnapped its crew.

Many of those on board are citizens of EU member states. Those governmentsโ€”along with all othersโ€”should unequivocally condemn Israel's illegal actions and demand the immediate release of their citizens

Sent a support ticket to a #service that I #subscribe to expressing my disappointment that I couldn't seem to do very basic things with their product/ service.

Bitch-ass #CustomerService #rep replies back scolding me for not viewing the "#onboarding #video".

Ok.

First off, if you have a product or a service and you only provide a "video" to teach your customers how to use your product, well... fuck you.

Videos don't work for everyone. Some of your customers might be deaf, or visually impaired.

Second, if you need a fucking #TRAININGVIDEO to teach your customers how to use your product or service you have flat out FAILED in every conceivable way.

Your product or service should be intuitive enough that your customers don't need a training video to learn how to use your product.

(I'm looking at you #ORACLE!)

Anyhow, rant over.

This is correct.

Just because they were prevented from delivering the aid and were kidnapped, doesn't mean they didn't do huge good.

A huge number of people noticed, and saw the injustice in Palestine, and some even looked past the official propaganda to learn about the real history.

Even the mockery from the "right wing media" eg Sky Australia, caused people to look deeper.

And that is a huge success.

#GazaGenocide / Special report: Ethnic cleansing through healthcare denial

This investigative report documents systematic war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Israel against Palestinian healthcare workers and patients during the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

The report documents how #Israel weaponized healthcare as part of its broader genocidal campaign, using medical institutions as instruments of ethnic cleansing while Israeli medical professionals actively participated in or remained silent about these crimes against humanity.โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹

Mass Detention and Torture of Medical Personnel

At least 380 healthcare workers from #Gaza have been arrested by Israeli forces since October 2023, with 24 forcibly disappeared. The report documents extensive torture in Israeli detention facilities:

- Dr. H., an orthopedic surgeon, was beaten, sexually assaulted, and tortured for 69 days at Sde Teiman detention camp

- Medical staff were subjected to โ€œdisco roomsโ€ with non-stop deafening music, dog attacks, and systematic beatings

- Prisoners were kept shackled and blindfolded constantly, fed through straws, and forced to use diapers

Deaths in Custody

At least 90 Palestinians have died in Israeli custody since October 2023, including prominent doctors:

- Dr. Adnan al-Borsh
- Dr. Iyad al-Rantisi
- Dr. Ziad al-Dalo
- Paramedic Hamdan Abu-Anaba

For comparison, only 9 prisoners died at #Guantanamo Bay over 20+ years.

Medical Complicity in War Crimes

Israeli healthcare institutions systematically violated medical ethics:

- Hospitals refused treatment to Palestinian patients on government orders

- Medical staff participated in torture and abuse of Palestinian detainees

- Israeli doctors called for bombing Gaza hospitals and exterminating all Palestinians

[โ€ฆ] โ€œIn early November 2023, close to a report by the World Health Organization that the Israeli army had killed at least 9,770 Palestinians by that point - including about 4,000 children - and wounded another 25,000, dozens of Israeli doctors published an open letter calling for bombing hospitals in Gaza.โ€

[โ€ฆ] The doctors wrote: โ€œGaza residents who chose to turn hospitals into terror nests in an attempt to exploit Western morality, they are the ones who brought destruction upon themselves.โ€They added that โ€œabandoning Israeli civilians and protecting mass murderers just because they are hiding in hospitals - is inconceivable.

- The Israeli Medical Association justified attacks on Palestinian hospitals

[โ€ฆ] Dr. Chana Katan (see #Wikipedia entry, hopefully some could take the time to update en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chana_โ€ฆ), an Israeli-American gynecologist and one of the signatories to the letter, said: โ€œI will do everything in my power to support and protect IDF soldiers, and ensure they return home safely. The IDF has the duty to attack terrorists hiding inside hospitals in Gaza.โ€ UN representatives and human rights organizations, including Human Rights Watch, have repeatedly emphasized that Israel has not provided sufficient evidence for claims about the use of hospitals by armed groups. Analysis of visual findings revealed that the claims of the IDF spokesperson are not credible.โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹

[โ€ฆ] Dr. Amos Szabo, a senior surgeon at Maccabi Health Services, wrote on social media X that he sees his reserve military service as a means to promote public health, โ€œsince this involves eliminating cockroaches and other disgusting insects.โ€ A few months earlier he also wrote: โ€œGaza must be erased. There are no innocents there.โ€

Destruction of Gazaโ€™s Healthcare System

Israel has systematically destroyed Gazaโ€™s medical infrastructure:

- Over 1,400 healthcare workers killed

- Hospitals bombed and besieged

- Medical facilities deliberately targeted despite no evidence of military use

- 15 paramedics executed by Israeli forces in coordinated ambush

Dr. H.โ€™s testimony from detention (one testimony out of many quoted):

During the March 2024 raid on Nasser Hospital, Dr. H., an orthopedic surgeon, was beaten by soldiers who โ€œkicked him in the stomach, groin and testicles, ordered him to undress, handcuffed him, blindfolded him and led him to the hospital courtyard.โ€ He was then taken to the notorious Sde Teiman military camp.

Dr. H. testified that during his 69 days at Sde Teiman, guards put him in a โ€œdisco roomโ€ - a room without mattresses where deafening music played non-stop. He was then taken to an interrogation room where, according to his testimony, โ€œthey tortured me for six days, with my hands and feet tied behind my back to a chair. They beat me in the stomach and slapped me while my eyes were covered.โ€

After 43 days, Dr. H. was transferred to a detention facility in Petah Tikva for continued interrogation. There he was examined by a doctor who confirmed he had developed hernias in the groin and abdomen area. โ€œDespite him saying I needed surgery and shouldnโ€™t be interrogated,โ€ Dr. H. recounted, โ€œI was returned to Sde Teiman without any medical treatment. When I returned to the detention facility, the soldiers beat me, slammed my head on the floor, pushed me into the sand, and kicked and punched me.โ€

Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up (Official Music Video)


"Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley is a quintessential pop anthem that has become a cultural phenomenon. With its catchy melody and memorable lyrics, this song embodies the spirit of the late 1980s, celebrating themes of love and commitment that resonate across generations.

Lyrics:
We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinkin' of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy

I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it

And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh) never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up)
(Ooh) never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up)

We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it

I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
