Organizers of the pro-Palestinian flotilla featuring Swedish anti-Israel activist Greta Thunberg announced that they had to abandon course just a day after departing Barcelona.
The reason?
Rough seas.
The “voyage will be postponed,” they declared.

On Thursday, Israel carried out a targeted airstrike in the capital city of Sanaa, eliminating the self-proclaimed Prime Minister of Yemen’s Houthi government, as well as his entire cabinet. In a single strike, Israel liquidated the leadership of one of the world’s most heinous terrorist groups – something no other country in the world has ever done. This isn’t just a victory for Israel – it’s a victory for all of us. In addition to waging a violent insurgency against the Yemeni government for over a decade, the group has also targeted countries like Saudi Arabia and the UAE with drone and missile attacks. They've killed multiple crew members of international shipping vessels, and they've repeatedly waged war against Israel, sending millions running for shelter, many, many times. Now, though, the group’s operational and strategic capabilities have been set back – and the message is clear: the reach of Israel is limitless. Indeed, since October 7th, the Jewish state has carried out the most impressive and successful counterterrorism campaign in history – and they aren’t done yet. Another day, another mission, and another instance of Israel doing the world’s dirty work.
Votes by Sen. Jon Ossoff in support of resolutions calling for a halt of U.S. shipments of specific weapons to Israel met with overwhelming, but not universal, criticism from within Atlanta’s Jewish community.
Ossoff, a Jewish Democrat who has talked publicly about relatives living in Israel, voted Nov. 20 in favor of two of three resolutions advanced by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vermont. Those resolutions called for a halt to U.S. delivery of tank rounds and mortar shells. Ossoff voted against a third resolution that called for a halt to delivery of guidance kits for joint direct attack munitions, known as JDAMS.
Sixteen Democratic senators, including Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock, voted in favor of advancing all three resolutions, while another Democrat supported one of the three. Though the resolutions were defeated in the Senate by a large margin, their votes reflected divisions in the Democratic Party over Israel’s conduct of its war against Hamas in Gaza following the Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist massacre of 1,200 people and the kidnapping of 250 more.
Ossoff’s votes likely will be an issue when he seeks re-election in 2026.
The first-term senator explained his votes in a Senate floor speech. “I remain steadfastly committed to the U.S.-Israel alliance, and I also believe we must be willing to say no, even to our closest friends, when we believe it is in America’s national interest,” Ossoff said in closing.

During the chuppah (ceremony), Dee’s surviving daughters, Keren and Tali, delivered moving words about their late mother, Lucy, and expressed their heartfelt support for their father’s decision to remarry Aliza.
The ceremony was officiated by Efrat's Rabbi Shlomo Kimchi and Rabbi Yair Bienstock, with musical accompaniment by Rabbi Shlomo Katz. IDF Chief Cantor Shai Abramson also participated, dedicating a moving song to the couple.
Rabbi Dee’s wife Lucy and two of their daughters, Maia (20) and Rina (15), were brutally murdered by Hamas terrorists in April 2023. Since then, Dee has become an internationally recognized figure of faith and resilience. He has authored three acclaimed books on faith, prayer, grief, and healing, following the success of his first book on contemporary Judaism, "Transforming the World: The Jewish Impact on Modernity."
Aliza Teplitsky, originally from Toronto, was active in Bnei Akiva and later served as director of programs for the movement in North America, based in New York. She immigrated to Israel in 2005, worked on the Jerusalem light rail project, designed exhibitions at the Israel Museum, and worked in tourism. Today, she manages a customer service team at a Tel Aviv hi-tech company.
Rabbi Dee and Aliza will continue to live in Efrat together with Dee’s three surviving children - Keren, Tali, and Yehuda.
