JUST IN: BRITISH ACTIVIST SARAH WILKINSON WHO WAS ABOARD THE GLOBAL SUMUD FLOTILLA SPEAKS OUT:
We were given clothes, food, and water in Istanbul— everything we asked for. They even arranged a hotel for us. It was wonderful.
I truly felt we were rescued by Türkiye. I can’t thank the Turkish government enough for ensuring we were safe.
Israeli soldiers look like us — they have faces and hands — but underneath, they are monsters. They can’t even get along with each other. They are cruel, inhumane, and brutal.
I know Palestinians suffer far worse, but being there gave me a small glimpse of what they have to endure.
