| Activists demand flotilla be allowed to leave for Gazoo; American captain of Gazoo flotilla ship released after Saturday arrest. A group of Gazoo flotilla activists occupied the Spanish embassy in Athens on Tuesday, demanding that the Gazoo-bound flotilla be allowed to leave Greece for the Gazoo Strip. The 21 Spanish activists intend on sailing on the Spanish boat Guernica, which has been docked on the southern Greek island of Crete for the past few weeks, awaiting an opportunity to sail as part of a flotilla that aims to challenge the Israeli blockade of Gazoo. The activists insist that they will continue to occupy the premises of the embassy until the Spanish government asks Greek authorities to allow them to sail to Gazoo. Meanwhile on Tuesday, John Klusmire, the American captain of the flotilla boat Audacity of Hope, was released from custody on Tuesday after he was incarcerated on Saturday on charges of setting sail without permission and endangering passengers. |

| #1 Dont you just love this soap opera? Oh, and how's that old Audacity of Hope, workin' out fer 'ya? What is it about the Palestinians that attracts this wealth of resolve and character? It just seems to attract flies all over this kind of issue for some strange reason. "The Audacity of Hope", yeah, dont step in it, 'cause apparently a lot of fools have. Half the United States population standing there with their faces beaming in the supernal Light of the One. Greek columns. Rainbows. The Messiah who was going to bring a "better world". It isnt going to get better anytime soon either, is it? They are going to default, you know? Sure they are. And then they wont accept responsibility, they will blame each other and still continue to do nothing. And eventually the lights will fail and your money will be paper stacked in a wheelbarrow. And you can sit there late in the winter in your Perry Como sweater and look at the burned out neighborhood. Do you own a gun? You dont? Well, there you are. How good is your Spanish? |
