In her post, Hassan accused Western governments of "colonial complicity", Arab regimes of "cowardice", and the Palestinian bourgeoisie of "collaboration." She added that the mission was not only an act of solidarity with Palestinians but also was a process of personal and political transformation: “We think we are liberating Palestine, but it is Palestine that is liberating us a little more every day.” Quoting Ben M’Hidi, she concluded: “Throw the revolution into the street, the people will pick it up.” Hassan is among 12 activists—including Swedish campaigner Greta Thunberg—aboard the Madleen, a civilian vessel attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza in defiance of Israel’s naval blockade.
