| Pro-Palestinian Organizations Target Israeli Shipping Firm | |
| 2014-08-17 | |
Pro-Paleostinian organizations have announced that they will begin sabotaging the operations of shipping company Zim in the United States. Under a banner of "Block the Boat for Gazoo," the action's organizers called for people to stop the firm's vessels from docking at ports and unloading their merchandise. The protest's first action — according to the group's Facebook page — will be an attempt to prevent the docking of a fat merchantman in Oakland, Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,. They are expected to protest in the port area. The group said "the world has watched in horror as Israel has continued to bombard and devastate Gazoo. Millions around the globe have come out in support of the Paleostinian people and against the Zionist regime, holding massive marches, demonstrations, and actions. It's time to step it up. " After the action in Oakland, activists are expected to attempt similar efforts in Seattle and Vancouver — part of a protest movement that will grow and spread across borders and countries, according to the organizers. In response, Zim said that "the company trusts the local authorities to perform their legal duties." | |

| #5 Zim said that "the company trusts the local authorities to perform their legal duties." Don't bet on it in Washingtonsatn Zim; our illustrious (D) governor recently pulled the Wa State patrol from escorting Wa State Ag inspectors from a grain terminal that was the object of a bitter strike/lockout. W/out the grain inspectors, no grain could be shipped. So the illustrious (D) governor showed that not only is he in the union's pocket but he also gave a big F.U. to the farmers as well. I suspect he will not support any LEO presence at a ZIM docking where protestors are. Just another Donk P.O.S. |

| #2 We need to nuke Martha's Vinyard and ARCLIGHT Gaza. Excessive stupidity MUST be curtailed before it overtakes the planet. Arrogant stupidity is a terminal illness, with no known treatment. Unfortunately, it's not the sources of the stupid that are most often killed. It's all the collateral damage they do. TERMINATE STUPIDITY! |
