As of this writing (11:48 GMT), it is roughly half-way between Sicily and Gaza.

Hey Jade - there’s a handy way to quickly access a website if you’re on an iPhone I can tell you how: open the tracker in Safari, hit the export button at the bottom of the screen, scroll down to ’Add to home screen’ (you can shorten the default name now if you want) and it creates a tile on your home screen that directly opens the tracker in your default browser, hope that helps.

Here in Aotearoa it’s maddening the sanctimonious liberal twits who virtue signal about the existential crisis that is anthropogenic climate change but nay a bad word for that vile ethno-supremist scum committing genocide. Unlike those half-wits, Gretta understands that if we can’t save Gaza we can’t save ourselves.

all those bombs, drones and other things they use to destroy and murder are also worse for the environment than anything else we do to it. Seems the ones with the power want to get rid of us one way or another.

I am an old lady which I only mention because I love laurel, and inevitably I end up I read ing the dueling comments between two people who somehow get their jollies from insulting each other on the comment page. So as I stumble to the end of my life, I wonder if commentators hurling vile descriptions of each other back and forth anonymously on the comment page really think that when they get to my age they will have made the world a better place. I just don't get why anyone thinks that calling someone they don't know a vile name is going to make the world a better place.

Dorothy,

The other user is a literal neo-Nazi who shares white supremacist, and antisemitic hate content. This is all publicly visible on their profile.

Your parents generation would have shot someone like him during the war.

A hallmark of a tolerant society, is to not tolerate intolerance. Therefore if you want to see a nicer world, you too need to treat Nazi's how they deserve to be treated.

Hi Dorothy...first of all id like to apologize if my comment to another individual here has caused you any discomfort and ofcorse you are entirely correct, this back and forth nonsense couldn't ever make the world a better place.

So what I'm doing is acknowledging your statement whilst fronting up to your truth pointing out my failures, I'm sure you'll agree that these forums are ment for that purpose, well in a "perfect world 🌎 anyway"

At the age of 62 I have still way to many questions unanswered but have concerns around not myself but thoes I leave behind, if it wasn't for them I would just walk away from this utter madness.

I think what will make the world a better place is when Mother nature decides she needs to clean house again.....🙏

One glance at your page, Dave, and it's Hitler, Nazi marching and Jew hating Nazi styles. So... guess you didn't realise you are holding the Nazi card? Or you did and you got nothing else so you play silly buggars in the comments section.

Another great one, Laura. I remember being horrified by Israel killing many of the Mavi Marmara's passengers/crew and then surprised that they got away with it. Still horrified but, sadly, no longer surprised.

Laura, your brilliance makes me laugh and cry . I am always so grateful for your wisdom on the murderous insanity.

I have totally changed my view of Greta from this courageous act. Maybe more of us will do it…what if the area was flooded with ships ….like in the famous Dunkirk rescues ?

David Attenburough praised Greta to the skies he was so impressed with her. He said she had done more for animals and the environment on this planet than he did, simply through stubborness and through social media. She is so small, autistic, only 22 years old, and fearless! And what a hero using her celebrity (famous and infamous) status to make sure people are feed in GAZA. Willing to die for the cause, which I feel is entirely possible as Israel will bomb them and say Hamas did it.

Greta, is amazing and so courageous.

My prayers and wishes are for her safe passage . For peace & massive aid to be delivered to the Palestinians. Then their land to be returned to them 🧡

Painfully obvious that Israel and its backers are itching to take these comparatively high profile opponents out (none shall oppose the Fascist US-Isrealhell Power Couple and its

Western Handmaids). Whether they hold off remains to be seen. Even if they do, there's not much face-saving that the Neoliberal/Neocon Empire can do at this stage in the eyes of the rest of the world.

This action will attract the greatest possible attention. It is hard to imagine how the media will conceal this.

No matter how the trip goes, Israel has already lost.

So this initiative cannot lose.

I’m afraid that the media have taken over millions of minds, especially here in the US. They routinely twist the truth to such a perverse extent that every story they report falls back on a body of lies that they’ve trained these millions to accept without question, without logic, and most especially without historical context. I don’t think most of these mindless receivers are reachable. The rest of the world is going to have to act.

"Apparently, a majority of the international public now hates the world's only murderous ethno-state..".

We need to motivate them to hate their WA$P $ponsors all the way back to Mother Eng£and, the Nato po$$€ and Rot$chi£d...otherwise they're only targeting the scapegoat manufactured decoy duck.
