Welcoming home the best of New Zealand – Will Alexander – Christchurch Airport 2.45pm today
Palestine solidarity supporters will be welcoming home Will Alexander this afternoon at 2.45pm at Christchurch airport. Will and his partner Ava Mulla were part of the latest flotilla to try to break the Israeli siege of Gaza.
Will and Ava were aboard the “Conscience” which, along with eight smaller boats, was illegally intercepted by Israel on Wednesday last week in international waters while on its way to deliver desperately needed humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The New Zealand government has not protested this seizure of New Zealand citizens in international waters.
Will and Ava were taken to the “terrorist” prison of Ketziot and with the others were subjected to harsh detention conditions and degrading treatment until flown to Istanbul, Turkiye. Will is flying on to New Zealand and Ava to Germany.
Will and Ava represent the best of New Zealand values of compassion and caring and being prepared to uphold those values for all human beings. Our government represents something else.
We invite media representatives to report on Will’s mission and his welcome home.

Will Alexander was part of the mission to bring world attention to Israel’s illega,l under international law, blockade of Gaza.
In latest news:
Drs in Gaza say that even the most basic medical supplies have still not been delivered to what remains of the Gaza’s health system.
The UN says it has received approval from Israel to begin deliveries Sunday. (Today New Zealand time)
These people have done a good thing. We thank them.

What exactly have they achieved? Aside from falling out with each other on the flotilla with Muslims ending up objecting to the other flotilla participants playing music, smoking cannabis and having sex with each other, and apart from bringing along around an average 50 kg of aid per boat, nothing much at all except praise from MSM journalists who made it appear that the world and Gazans were dependent upon them. Oh, and polluting the ocean by throwing their lithium batteries overboard. Total impact? ZERO!
The Salesman – Greta was unpleasant and was transferred to another boat as well.
