Robert Martin: Tweets of a Pro-Palestinian Peace Activist
by Mike Burch

Robert Martin is an Australian peace activist who supports the Palestinian people in their quest for freedom, equality and justice. Hell, he not only supports them, he is risking his life to help them by joining the Gaza Freedom Flotilla III. Trying to break Israel's illegal blockade of Gaza can be a very risky business, since Israel murdered nine Turkish activists on the high seas, including an American citizen, Furkan Dogan. So my hat is off to Robert Martin for having the courage of his convictions.

Robert Martin is a straight shooter who makes no bones about his disdain for Israel's brutal, unjust treatment of Palestinians. Here, for example, are some of his tweets and re-tweets:

Israeli military kills Palestinian kids, United Nations whitewashes it
#Israeli forces level #Palestinian land near #Nablus
BDS 10 years on, Israel fears "strategic threat of the first order"
ICC delegation to visit Israel this month to investigate war crimes
Holocaust survivor sums Israel up as a Nazi state
Wake the hell up people!
Israel is not defending itself
Palestinian children gather rubber-coated steel bullets after they have been fired upon by Israeli soldiers
When will mainstream media report the truth?
Well if throwing stones gets you 20 years in prison in ISRAEL why is the IDF watching on whilst zio-jews throw them?
Wow. Israel says murder of four children on Gazan beach was an attack on militant 'commandos'. Course it was.
Israel's decree that killing 4 young boys playing on a beach is consistent with its laws is quite a self-indictment
540 Palestinian children were killed in Gaza over 50 days, 70 percent of whom were younger than 12 years.
Imagine your children subjected to this kind of harassment EVERY MORNING going to school. CRUEL!
UN’s Ban Ki-moon caves in, takes Israel off list of serious child abusers
Palestinian children tortured, used as shields by Israel: U.N.
"Now, in 2015, there is really no excuse for musicians agreeing to play in Tel Aviv," says Roger Waters
Hey "israel", fuck you and your planes.
