"Madeleine is a great Tasmanian and a true hero," Greens Senator for Tasmania Nick McKim said. "Her courage has given heart to the people of Gaza and inspired so many of us around the world." "Her actions sent a clear message to the Australian government that genocides should be resisted, not enabled." "Madeleine's arrest in international waters was was just one of countless crimes committed by Israel over many decades." "It was an act of piracy and kidnapping." "The attempt by Israel to indefinitely detain Madeleine unless she signed a waiver was nothing less than extortion, and should result in the strongest possible diplomatic response from Foreign Minister Penny Wong." "Thanks to many in the community who rallied and organised to support Madeleine and everyone else imprisoned by Israel for trying to bring aid to Gaza." "While Madeleine is coming home, we must remember the profound suffering still being faced by the people of Gaza, and that millions of Palestinians continue to live in fear with their rights trampled by Israel's apartheid regime."
