Wywiad z Romanem Kurkiewiczem - Flotylla Wolności 2

Jaś Kapela, Krytyka Polityczna:
Skąd pomysł, żeby wziąć udział we Flotylli Wolności 2?

Roman Kurkiewicz:
Po raz pierwszy pomyślałem o tym przed rokiem. Po tym jak Freedom Flotylla 1 została spacyfikowana przez oddział izraelskich komandosów, który zastrzelił dziewięciu aktywistów, brałem udział w małej warszawskiej manifestacji. W poniedziałek będę miał rozprawę sadowa w tej sprawie. Pewnie zostaniemy uniewinnieni. Wtedy pomyślałem, że może nie ma się co dziwić i krzywić, że nikt z Polski nie bierze udział we Flotylli, tylko trzeba to zrobić. Nikt poza Ewą Jasiewicz, która jest obywatelką Wielkiej Brytanii, a także aktywistką i autorką książki „Podpalić gazę”, m.in. o jej doświadczeniach wolontariuszki pogotowia ratunkowego podczas operacji „Płynny ołów”. Nie jest dobrze, że w sprawie polityki okupacyjnej Izraela właśnie tu w Polsce nie zabieramy głosu. Na polski antysemityzm odtrutką okazuje się nie wysiłek edukacyjny, poznawczy, tylko radykalna, bezkrytyczna proizraelskość, bezdyskusyjne i demonstracyjne wspieranie polityki państwa Izrael, w tym tej wobec ludności palestyńskiej...

Bombing for "democracy" in Libya‬‏? One million Libyans say no! / Bombardowanie dla demokracji? Milion Libijczyków powiedziało NIE!


A Million People March (BBC says"tens of thousands") in Tripoli to support their leader Gaddafi.

Marsz miliona (BBC mówi 'dziesiątki tysięcy) ludzi popierających Kadafiego w Tripoli / Libia.




Translation of Gaddafi's speech:

Translation of Gaddafi speech today, translation by Karim Budabuss:

The leader is talking now. He is saying that this is a historical day, and he is challenging Sarkozy, Cameron and Obama to switch on their TVs and watch the crowds and he is saying that they will find out that they are delusional because they entered a war which they never win, he also says if you continue targeting our houses we can do the same coz Europe is not far away but he said lets not do this and watch the crowds , kids and women. They are not here because i ordered them to, it is they are free will. in this war you are not facing me you are facing these crowds.

I am nothing, if you want peace with Libyans, it is up to the crowds. If you want any thing , negotiate with the crowds.

The regime is not Gaddafi regime, it is a Libyan regime .

Even if many got scared, defected and escaped, the Libyans will remain, and each coward will be replaced with a hero. Is it a democracy to bomb the civilans, we don't want a democracy which comes with bombs.
The socialist Jamahyria will win, the real democracy which serves the people. I advice you to stop bombing, and stop becoming merecenaries for some rebels. The Libyans said their words, they marched, their tribes made it clear that the future is for Libyans, the oil is for Libya, Libya is ours. You are delusional, a group of traitors convinced you that Libya is easy to get, you hired mercenaries , propaganda, sychological war all that didn't allow you to make any progress on the ground.
Turn on ur TVs and watch the longest Libyan flag 4.5 km, I didn't make this flag, people donated to make this flag. Those rebels are no different from who betrayed Libyan during the Italian invasion.

Libyan people go in millions without weapons to liberate the regions under rebel control. You Libyan people are the only one who can finish this war with a victory. If they want to negotiate we welcome that, otherwise we are continuing and they are definitely losing no matter how many weapons they drop with parachute to the rebels. We will not betrayed our history nor our children and their future.

The glory is for you brave Libyans, the struggle will continue.

PLEASE EMAIL GREEK PM TO RELEASE FREEDOM FLOTILLA II



PLEASE EMAIL GREEK PM TO RELEASE FREEDOM FLOTILLA II




On Friday July 1 the Greek government announced that it was prohibiting the departure from Greek ports of any ships, Greek or foreign, for Gaza. The Canadian Boat to Gaza, the Tahrir Greek port authorities boarded the Tahrir Friday and seized its licence.

Canadian officials have not commented on the incident, although dozens of Canadians are aboard the Tahrir.

Freedom Flotilla II’s aim is to peacefully challenge Israel’s blockade of Gaza, which violates international law and inflicts grave hardship on Palestinians. Over the last 18 months, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has dramatically strengthened ties with Greece. Netanyahu recently implored European leaders to provide financial aid to Greece. Greece is currently rocked by a financial crisis and popular protests against Papandreou’s proposed austerity measures to deal with it. Greece’s decision to prevent ships from leaving Greek ports for Gaza may be an indication that the Greek PM is reciprocating Netanyahu’s gesture.

The organizers of the Canadian Boat to Gaza stated late Friday that their vessel was now blockaded in Greece. “We have been unjustly and duplicitously treated.” said Irene MacInnes of the Boat’s organizing committee, in an online statement. “Israel has in effect extended the illegal blockade of Gaza to Greek ports, using the Greece’s economic difficulties to influence the government’s position,” added David Heap, another member of the boat’s organizing committee.
