In Israel is undesirable, now comes by sea
In the 12 -member crew of the Madleen Bar, Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FCC), which floated against Gaza with a symbolic amount of humanitarian aid these days, in addition to the Swedish (climate) activist Grete Thunberg and an Irish player Liam cunningham Even a French-Palestinian MEP Rome Hassan. The 33-year-old Lawless Lawyer, for the first time, warned the public in two television appearances on French television in early 2023, and because of its activism and views since 7. October that year, when Hamas’s attack on southern Israel gave the reason for the genocidal war in Gazaeven more exposed.
In the Palestinian refugee camp near Syrian Aleppo -born member Mélenchon On Sunday, France and the European Left announced on its online social channels to head with FCC, Greto Thunberg and other activists against Gaza. She described the elimination as a symbolic and political act, with the aim of considering international law, ie. « Stop blocking gauze and stopping genocide in progress. »
Together with Greta, they urged followers in the video posted on her Instagram profile to extend the voice of eliminations and, through an online application, are monitored, as this will only take care of her safety. A similar expedition, on a slightly larger barge, tried to achieve the gauze with the same purpose in early May, but was injured near Malta in the attack of allegedly Israeli drones. Israel did not comment on the incident.
As Rome Hassan said in her path yesterday, they have processed four possible scenarios at petrical education: whether they manage to arrive on the gauze shore, or intercepts by Israelis, or attack (in this case they have only a few hours to get rid, and the barge finally sinks).

From a refugee camp to the European Parliament
In Israel and among the stewed Rome, Hassan is not popular. In February this year, when she wanted to enter the country with a group of MEPs, this is her and Irish Members of the Left Lynn Boylan prevented. As a reason he is the Minister of the Interior Moše Arbel cited her advocacy for boycott Israel and numerous statements in the media and on social networks. Part of the delegation intended for the occupied Palestinian territories were then the Slovenian MEP Matjaz Nemec and Irena Jovevwith which they share similar views on Israeli occupation and the war in Gaza.
And yet not entirely. In France, an international law specialist with a master’s degree from the Faculty of Law of the University of Sorbona on Apartheid in South Africa and Israel, for example, upset with the statement that Hamas has a legitimate right to armed resistance in the context of colonization (but not to the coverage of hostages, etc.), and Roberto Metsola addressed a letter requesting her to deprive her of parliamentary immunity.

Due to the Propalestinial views, the descendants of the survivors of Nakba and on the other side of the Syrian Kurds receive not only outrage, accusations, convictions, boycott, bans and attacks, but also threats of death and hostile messages, in which, in addition to death, was threatened by rape. So she resorted to Lebanon, Jordan and Syria for a while, where her father still lives in the Neirab refugee camp on the outskirts of Aleppo. There, she devoted herself to writing a book and taking pictures.

The first was her mother because of domestic violence, her children joined her after several years of separate life. She put her Palestinian identity aside there to learn the language and turn into a new environment, even though it was stabbed. She started activism at fifteen, when at the age of eighteen, when she received French citizenship – her first citizenship at all – she wanted to travel to Israel to get to know the « land of her ancestors », and in February this year, she had to contact her at the Paris Airport.

With the unburdened France, Rima Hassan, who worked in the field of migration, refugee camps (in connection with these also established her own non -governmental organization) and inclusiveness, brought together at the end of 2023, and was later invited to run for European elections.

She says she has three identities: refugee, Palestinian and class, but that she was first shaped.
He advocates a solution to one, not two countries and is often dressed in kefi. He claims that they are not disturbed by the existence of Israel and Jews, but colonialism. Her opponents consider her an anti -Semit and a supporter of terrorism. President of the National Assembly and MEP with whom they sit opposite in the European Parliament, Jordan Bandella, did he so labeled her as Rimo Hamas.
She was just getting back to Instagram from sailing to Gaza. »Notice from Israeli military radio: The Israeli Navy is preparing for the arrival of the Freedom Flotilla ship to the Coast of Gaza in the coming days. The army says she is ready for various scenarios that will be implemented in accordance with the policy instructions. We know how Nonjahu And his far -right regimen treats Palestine -based voices, « she wrote, urging further mobilization in the event of a need for a quick response.
