A group of pro-Palestinian protesters blocked the entrance to the Port of Tacoma early Monday morning, in an attempt to prevent military supplies from entering the port and being loaded onto ships headed to Israel.
"We are stopping the ships, we are stopping the boats, we are causing a delay in whatever they do to support, basically, sending military supplies to Israel to continue bombing our children," said Nour, a 25-year-old Palestinian at the port entrance.
Nour did not give her last name. KUOW has not been able to confirm any information around a ship picking up military supplies at the Port of Tacoma.
The Seattle chapter of the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network began planning for the demonstration on Friday, after it says it received information that a ship had left Oakland, Calif., and was headed to Tacoma to pick up military supplies destined for Israel.

I'm sorry. You couldn't pay me to live in Tacoma. I lived in Silverdale/Poulsbo/Bremerton areas for 3 years when stationed at Bangor.

Now this is interfering with National Security and should be dealt with as an insurrection... but it won't be, because Palestinians are yet another liberal pet project. Another protected class that can't be punished for anything.
