I'm gonna' guess that you're just out of the loop on this one.

Israel has released hundreds of Sumud Flotilla members from EU countries. But itâ€™s still holding our US citizens.

Many of the activists whoâ€™ve made it home from this ordeal say thatâ€”unlike w/ the June flotillaâ€”Ben Gvirâ€™s Israeli security forces beat them.
