The 18 national campaigns of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla coalition (Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, International Campaign to Break the Siege, Malaysia, New Zealand, Norway, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Türkiye, the United Kingdom, and United States) met in Dublin, Ireland, December 5-7, 2025, to plan for many more vessels to sail to challenge the illegal Israeli naval blockade and the genocide in Gaza.
Israel continues to break the cease-fire in Gaza and has escalated the vicious attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians and their land in the West Bank.
The inaction of governments to stop the genocide in Gaza, has compelled citizens to bring attention to the continuing genocide by sailing boats in an attempt to break the siege of Gaza.
Therefore, plans are under way for an escalation, for more boats in 2026 filled with unarmed civilians to challenge the illegal Israeli naval blockade of Gaza.
The Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) was formed in 2010 after Israel assassinated nine Turkish citizens and one Turkish-American citizen on the Mavi Marmara ship. Over the past 15 years, the FFC has sailed dozens of boats to challenge Israel’s illegal naval blockade of Gaza.
In 2025, the FFC sailed the ships Madleen, Handala and Conscience. The Conscience was bombed by Israel off Malta on May 1, 2025, and was repaired to join the October 2025 mission.
The FFC’s efforts to break the naval blockade on Gaza expanded significantly in 2025, when the FFC was joined by two major new initiatives—the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) and the Thousand Madleens to Gaza (TMTG), resulting in a historic number of ships sailing in 2025 to challenge Israel’s genocide and unlawful siege on Gaza.
On the last day of the FFC Dublin meeting, representatives of GSF and TMTG joined the meeting to ensure that each organization was made aware of preliminary ideas for 2026 to work toward an even larger collective effort for 2026.
Details of these plans will be made public by each organization at the appropriate time.
As reported in the FFC press release for the meeting, this year’s meeting took place just three weeks after the passage of UN Security Council Resolution 2803, “which rubber-stamped the Trump plan for Gaza. Its adoption was a historic betrayal—not only of the Palestinian people, but of the very foundations the United Nations claims to defend. Resolution 2803 represents one of the most dangerous attempts in recent years to render international law irrelevant. It does not advance Palestinian rights in any meaningful way; instead, it installs a neo-colonial trusteeship led by the very powers that have armed, funded and politically shielded Israel’s atrocities for decades.”
“Security Council Resolution 2803 is a moral abdication by the world’s most powerful governments and the very institution that has failed Palestinians for over 80 years,” said FFC Steering Committee member Huwaida Arraf of US Boats to Gaza. “When states fail, people must take action. This is not a time to let up on our work, but rather to intensify our decolonial struggle, broaden our ranks, and turn collective outrage into unstoppable global momentum.”
The FFC press release continued: “Gaza needs us—needs all of us—now more than ever. Ending the siege is not only a political necessity; it is a profound moral duty. We will continue to act, organize, and sail in solidarity until Palestinians in Gaza can live with freedom, dignity, and justice.”

Kako je moguće da Zelenski zna unaprijed kada će Rusija napasti, gdje i s čime?

Postoje trenuci u povijesti kada se slučajnosti počnu ponašati kao loše laži. Ponavljaju se, usklađene su i postaju previše precizne da bi ostale nevine. Najnoviji masovni napad na Ukrajinu otvara upravo takav prostor sumnje. Satima prije nego što su nebo nad Kijevom i Lavovom presjekle eksplozije, upozorenje je već bilo izrečeno. Ne općenito, ne diplomatski maglovito, nego gotovo programski. Volodimir Zelenski je govorio o velikom napadu koji dolazi, a onda je došao. Brzinom, intenzitetom i geografijom koje su se poklopile do nelagode.
Naravno, službena objašnjenja postoje. Obavještajni rad, sateliti, presretanje komunikacija. Sve to stoji. No, kada se upozorenja ponavljaju s takvom točnošću, kada se zna ne samo da će udariti nego i otprilike čime i gdje, tada se rađa hipoteza koju nitko ne želi izgovoriti naglas. Što ako Ukrajina ne “pogađa” buduće poteze Rusije, nego ih zna unaprijed jer su već negdje, iznad karte svijeta, precrtani dogovorima velikih?
Ruska verzija priče dodatno dolijeva ulje na vatru apsurda. Osveta za napad na rezidenciju Vladimir Putina. A onda, kao u kazalištu sjena, slijedi demonstracija sile: hipersonični projektil Orešnik, lansiran s poznate lokacije, putanja koja se gotovo demonstrativno ne skriva i brzina koja se teatralno ističe. Poruka je poslana, ali kome točno? Ukrajini, koja je već bila u skloništima, ili nekom trećem, daleko izvan dometa sirena?
Ovdje dolazimo do najosjetljivijeg dijela ove analize, koji mora ostati u zoni hipoteze, ali ozbiljne hipoteze. U svijetu u kojem međunarodne norme pucaju kao tanko staklo, a planeta se ponovno dijeli na interesne zone, ideja da Rusija i Sjedinjene Američke Države vode paralelne ratove i paralelne pregovore više ne zvuči kao teorija zavjere iz mračnih kutaka interneta.
Zvuči kao hladna geopolitika. U takvom aranžmanu, Ukrajina može istovremeno biti žrtva i informirani sudionik, netko tko plaća strašnu cijenu, ali unaprijed zna kada mora povući glavu, a kada poslati poruku svijetu.
Podudarnosti su ono što bode oči. Upozorenje nekoliko sati prije udara. Točno prepoznavanje eskalacije. Spominjanje balističkih projektila, a zatim njihova stvarna uporaba.
Lavov, daleko od prve crte, ali nikada izvan simbolike. Sve to pojedinačno može imati racionalno objašnjenje. Zajedno, tvore obrazac koji je statistički gotovo nemoguć ako se oslanjamo samo na intuiciju i sreću.
Ova analiza ne tvrdi da postoji tajni sporazum ispisan na salveti u nekom neutralnom gradu. Ona tvrdi nešto suptilnije i opasnije, da živimo u vremenu u kojem se ratovi vode pred kamerama, ali se njihovi okviri dogovaraju izvan kadra.
Ako je to istina, tada nas ne treba najviše plašiti Orešnik, njegova brzina ili domet. Treba nas plašiti spoznaja da su sudbine gradova, pa i čitavih država, možda već unaprijed raspoređene u tišini ureda gdje se ne čuju sirene, ali se vrlo dobro čuju interesi.

Do you know what the Partisans did with such traitorous bosses?
Such treasonous bosses were taken to empty place and shot him themselves.
Ron Paul said that Hamas are founded of Netanyahu. I believe him. Why? Because it was only because of Hamas that this catastrophe happened in Syria and also in Lebanon. Is it normal for someone to kidnap a few people and give the adversary such a good reason to destroy the entire resistance axis? From Nasrallah and Hezbollah to Syria and Assad. Hamas is a scam to stupid Arabs like as HTS and ISIS. But the biggest fraud is Putin, who secretly informs Trump and NATO about his moves.https://www.logicno.com/politika/kako-je-moguce-da-zelenski-zna-unaprijed-kada-ce-rusija-napasti-gdje-i-s-cime.html
