  • Itamar Ben-Gvir, Convicted Terrorist

    So some people are upset that IsraelrCOs National Security Minister has
    posted video of himself abusing peaceful activists from the Global
    Sumud Flotilla.

    Some of those, in the US particularly, are upset, not that herCOs a bloodthirsty, violent thug -- they seem to see nothing wrong with
    that. No, theyrCOre upset because he is a bloodthirsty, violent thug who
    has brazenly published incontrovertible evidence of his misdeeds. If
    herCOd only been a little more discreet about these abuses, his
    Government could have been able to deny that they had taken place --
    like they have done on so many past occasions. But herCOs made that a
    bit difficult in this case.

    The stupid pig gave these assholes just what they wanted -- "Oh, poor
    me, I was so terribly ABUSED! But it was still WAY better than going
    to Yemen, Sudan, or one of those countries in which hundreds-of-
    thousands of Muslim children are starved to death by their fellow
    Muslims! Frankly, I don't give a shit about these countries, I can
    barely recall their names, and further, I hear it's ACTUALLY dangerous
    there!"

    But Israel claims it is better than those other countries. It calls
    itself rCLthe only democracy in the Middle EastrCY, yet here you are
    admitting that the only way you can make it look good is by comparing
    it to them, not to any actual freedom-loving democracies.

    This latest episode has finally driven France to ban him from entry to
    that country <https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/5/23/france-bans-far-right-israeli-minister-ben-gvir>.

    From those of us who did this much earlier -- what took you so long?

    Both France and Italy have opened investigations into Ben-GvirrCOs
    mistreatment of the peaceful, unarmed Global Sumud Flotilla activists <https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/6/9/italys-foreign-minister-slams-israels-ben-gvir-over-flip-flop-comments>.

    ItrCOs remarkable that Italy, of all people, should be driven to this,
    given the supposed far-right-leaning Government in charge. That just
    shows that even some rightists have limits on how much human-rights
    abuse they will stand for! Who knew?

    The French investigation is being done by the counter-terrorism unit.
