Greta Thunberg, in a video posted on social media, said she and other members of the Freedom flotilla en-route to Gaza have been kidnapped by Israeli forces. This comes after the Daily Mail reported that several Israeli vessels surrounded the ship Madleen, prompting the crew to raise an alarm.
Thunberg shared a pre-recorded video appealing for international help. “My name is Greta Thunberg, and I am from Sweden,” she said in the clip. “If you see this video, we are being intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel. I urge all my friends, family and comrades to put pressure on the Swedish government to release me and the others as soon as possible.”
“The tiny amount of aid that was on the yacht and not consumed by the ‘celebrities’ will be transferred to Gaza through real humanitarian channels,” the ministry added.
They will toss the aid to the wood chipper and laugh about it, won’t they…
Nah they’ll actually dangle the food in front of starving people to draw a crowd and then bomb them.
Fucking monsters.
of course not. they’ll use it to lure in more starving people to massacre
death to israel
She was no dummy. But was always going to die this way.
(I only assume she is dead.)
Israel has decided to grab the attention of some of the people who weren’t already outraged. It’s a bold more. I hope it works out the way I think it will.
All they had to do was wait until the boat entered Israeli waters to do it legally. Why do it in international waters? Israelis seem to want to break laws just for the sake of showing they dont consider any laws to matter. In some ways they are worse than nazis. They are like perpetually angry butthurt toddlers with weapons.
this country is run and heavily populated with most vile criminals ever to exists.
when contemplating about what they are capable of, then think of them as the most disgusting mexican drug cartel not a country of law and human decency.
At no point would the boat enter Israeli waters. Only Palestinian waters.
The illegal Israeli sea blockade is illegal for reason: it is not their water.
They want to make a point that they don’t care about international law
And that they will most likely suffer no consequences from it
You may be right. The whole world is on the brink ,deciding if we will move forward as a global “rule of law” or a global “might makes right” future.
Why is everyone so hands off and permissive with Israel? Like they can do nothing wrong when they go out of their way to do wrong things?
Old colonial power just became neo colonial powers.
because Israel lobby owns every american congress, senate and president. therefore they own the US israeli foreign policy and at the same time they own the who west too more or less, because nobody at least (yet) doesn’t want to stand up to the US.
Israel has a huge lobby in most Western countries. And Epstein material on their politicians.
And Epstein material on their politicians.
For Germany: Israel is an indulgence for the Holocaust.
For the USA: Israel is an unsinkable aircraft carrier in a largely hostile region that is protected by international law.
For the rest of Western Europe: They are vassals of the US, so naturally they don’t want to piss of their daddy.
For everyone else: they don’t want to provoke the US either.
Western countries never face any consequences for their atrocities.
Greed.
Because if you criticise you’re called “Anti Semitic”
BS. Those countries doesn’t care about being labeled antisemite they are racist toward palestinians
manufactured consent and capitalist profit. it’s a cult.
We just need to help god make the book of revelations happen so Jesus can come back!

Thiago Ávila, a Brazilian activist, was also in that boat and was kidnapped by the Israeli state. That’s a crime against humanity.
they have been murdering activists, journalists, doctors, kids, women, pregnant women for decades. israel was founded by slaughtering entire villages and raping little girls to death.
you thinks these vicious scum care an iota about humanity ?
Isn’t boarding and taking over a ship in international waters piracy?
For private citizens yes.
If a nations official forces do it. It is an act of war.
When Israel does it “it has a right to protect itself” from unarmed civilians bringing food.
Curious to see how the EU and other European countries will respond. One of the people on board is a EU PM.
Besides Greta the boat had people from many other European countries such as France, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands. There are also a Turk and a Brazilian on board.
I really hope the people on board are safe. They don’t deserve this.
Empty strong condemnations
They will respond politically. And that is all.
The history means every nation in Europe is split to hell on this subject. So what ever action any specific gov takes. Will be the end of that gov. So no gov will have the courage to challenge with anything but diplomacy.
Do either Israel or it’s enablers care?
Yep
yes, and an act of war.
Israel would claim that the flotilla was providing material assistance to a military enemy, and were a legitimate target

I don’t think kidnapped should be in " ", it’s an entirely literal act of piracy and terrorism
An act of war
