US Sanctions Gaza Flotilla Organisers While Condemning Ben-Gvir Video

Al Jazeera·20 May 2026

The US sanctioned Gaza-bound aid flotilla organisers as 'pro-terror' while Ambassador Huckabee simultaneously condemned Israeli minister Ben-Gvir's video taunting detained activists, exposing a stark contradiction in American foreign policy toward Israel. This diplomatic tension signals the growing isolation of Israel and its key ally from the international community — a biblical pattern Scripture describes in the last days, where the nations turn against Israel and pressure mounts from all sides. Zechariah 12:3 warns that Jerusalem will become 'a burdensome stone for all people' and that all nations will be gathered against it, a geopolitical reality accelerating in real time.
