He was trying to deliver baby formula to starving children in Gaza. For that, Israeli forces choked him, beat him, and surrounded him with special police. Chris is a human rights defender.
I read this with tears in my eyes. Chris Smalls is doing what I wish I could do, if I would dare to step out of my comfort zone -- which I don't. I'm 79, is that an excuse? Not really.
And you wonder why Israel and the Jews are hated so much. America Jews could speak out and also demand his release but they are silent, but they cry out when they’re called out and accuse those who criticize them as antisemitic. If the Jews want respect they must respect others!
Are you speaking of yourself in 3rd person? I have no knowledge of this, but I have knowledge of 3 things - the good work of Chris that I witnessed, his personal interactions with me on dozens of occasions, and his courage in attempting to go to Gaza.
Please share this far and wide. Comment and post.

None of us have a worthy excuse
I feel you. I give myself all sorts of excuses. The truth is I’m just not doing enough. Nothing can be enough
This is sad.
This is great work, Shaun, we are all grateful!
It’s my honor
Imagine the headlines if Hamas had kidnapped an American citizen. But Israel does it and the Us government is silent.
Anti-Black racism is pervasive in the apartheid terrorist rogue state of Israel. In other words, Israel is a racist endeavor!

Hey Shaun if Chris such a great guy why did he illegally fire the ALU’s female vice president Michelle Valentin Nieves with no due Process ????

Are you really as self-centred as your comment makes you appear?
