This is the ship with Greta Thunberg, headed for Gaza. There was an inflatable raft carrying ~40 people fleeing from Sudan. The Libyan Coast Guard wanted to take the refugees to Libya. The Libya Coast Guard vessel lied and identified itself as the Egyptian Coast Guard. The refugees are afraid of Libya. Four refugees jumped from the inflatable. The 4 refugees were left in the water. Madleen rescued the 4 refugees.
these absolute gigachads are doing IRL sidequests and I'm here for it
I wish I had a quarter of the courage these folks have, holy shit what an incredible mission

not to take away from what they're doing according to their abilities, but i don't have access to a ship, do you?
no, but even if I was invited to go, I don't know if I would have the courage to risk being imprisoned and tortured by an Israeli prison guard
these people are incredibly brave, and I have the deepest admiration for every one of them
Not only do they have balls of steel sailing to bring aid to an area under genocide, but they are even managing to recruit in the middle of the sea.
That's an IRL one piece arc, crazy shit. I really hope it's gonna end well.
Greta D. Thunberg
The fact that you seemingly literally cannot sail the Mediterranean without happening across capsized refugee vessels is nothing but harrowing. There will only be more murder.
That's the craziest part of this screenshot, the fucking Frontex drone saw this ship and raised the alarm. Frontex (and their drone operators) watching people drown on a daily basis and patting themselves on the back, because those people drowned in the Mediterranean rather than reaching the EU.
So Libya is not doing great since Gaddafi, is it?
It's still got two governments competing for control of the country, I don't know much about them though.
AFAIK they're basically rival oil cartels that are fronts for different Gulf states doing something like inter-imperialist violence. It's ancapistan right now.
But at least they're free!
lost the election, still got everything she ever wanted.
My government said they would destabilize the area and both mainstream political parties engaged gleefully in doing exactly that.
now israel is gonna claim the refugees are hamas being smuggled in and that's why they had to blow the freedom floatilla up
Is this going to turn into One Piece.
i support Greta queen of pirates
Braver and more morally righteous than any dipshit troop.
Piratekings and queens
Fire emblem recruitment
these people are saints.
Thats amazing, but I hope those refugees know where they're headed..
