🇮🇹✨ Today, several #italian MPs wore the colors of Palestine’s flag inside Parliament. They said: “Today we don’t hold up the flag, because you would try to take it from us… instead, we wear it on our skin.” ✌️🇵🇸 A powerful message from the heart of the Italian Parliament in solidarity with Palestine. 🙏 From #gaza I send my deepest gratitude to these brave MPs for their noble humanitarian stance. 💌 Please share this message so the world knows that #palestine is not alone. #palestine #gaza #Italy

Nelson #Mandela's grandson #Mandla is set to join the Global Sumud #Flotilla to #Gaza and says that the form of #apartheid the #Palestinians undergo is far worse than South Africa’s apartheid

He is joining the Flotilla, too

#Italian #dockworkers threaten to block shipments to #Israel if communication with the flotilla is broken off for even 20 minutes and Israel does something to the ships and people on them
