Thiago participated in 3 different Gaza Flotilla Missions. He was on board the Madleen Gaza Freedom Flotilla and the Family Global Sumud Flotilla. He acted as a main spokesperson while on these boats.

This is disappointing that he would be friendly with Jackson Hinkle. At the start of the podcast episode, Thiago says tells Hinkle "Thank you Jackson. It's a pleasure to be on Legitimate Targets. Thank you for your work. You do very, very important work to build a new society."

I hear what you're saying but honestly I genuinely think we shouldn't harp on about this; I think there's genuinely a lot of desperation in so many of these folks' attempts to help the Gazan people, and they'll do anything to reach as many people as possible. Unless the host is someone hostile to Gaza or Palestinians (like Ben Shapiro for example), I think they'd be ready to be on as many shows as they can to reach as many people as possible. I saw a video with a Palestinian American doctor who went to Gaza to help on Hasan's show and I got the impression there's a huge amount of desperation on so many of these people's part to disseminate information to as many people as possible and to try and sway as many people as possible.

I personally admit I don't know much about Jackson Hinkle myself, and I wouldn't be surprised if this guys knows even less.
