Israel Kidnapped Gaza Flotilla Activists, A Father Demands Answers | The West Report
Gemma O’Toole was aboard the Freedom Flotilla when it was stopped by Israeli forces. While her father, Patrick Kaiser, said the family had not heard from him for more than 64 hours, the main footage they saw showed detained activists being zip-tied, placed in stress positions and being mocked by Israeli minister Itamar Ben Gvir.
While Australia summoned the Israeli ambassador and condemned Ben-Gvir’s behavior, Gemma’s family are calling for stronger action, sanctions and a serious reckoning with Australia’s selective approach to international law and human rights.
