Israeli foreign ministry posts video of Thunberg’s arrest; vessels carrying about 500 activists intercepted about 75 miles off coast of war-torn territory
No, Greta was kidnapped
Again.
I didn’t know that Israel is just casually pirating away in international waters. Weird how that’s not ok when somalians do it.
All these powerful men with guns scared of a 22 year old girl in a sailboat.
So glad those Italian and Spanish ships did…
Absolutely fuck all. Spineless.
It was all for show to appease protestors.
They said from the beginning that they were only there to rescue anyone should they end up in the ocean. Not to protect the aid boats.
The fact that they openly said that tells you all you need to know about thier governments.
bruh, just how much kiddie porn blackmail does israel have on the west…goddamn.
For once, it doesn’t have to be blackmail. The Zionists have Uncle Sam. Relations between the EU and the US are already not the strongest they’ve been. Risking the ire of a large power like that is not exactly smart diplomacy.
Would it have been the right thing to do? Absolutely.
Even on that insane wild-eyed little Italian blondie PM?
It’s stronger… it’s money.
So glad those Italian and Spanish ships did…
Being there likely saved Gretta from getting merc’d by an IDF sniper.
They’re not doing enough, but they’re also not doing nothing.
they did absolutely nothing, stopped following then when they reach the orange line, which is not gazan or Israeli territorial waters, but the heart of the Mediterranean where Israel likes to attack civilians.
They literally turned around before they reached the Israeli boats. So no, that didn’t happen
No, because they left when the flotilla entered the danger zone
Not arrested. Kidnapped and taken hostage.
Israel is terrorist country. Must be banned from every international organization.
its kidnapping …
Kidnapping or abduction is the unlawful abduction and confinement of a person against their will, and is a crime in many jurisdictions
Oh phack! Again? Why can’t they just let Gretta win? Its just a few truck loads of food. WTF. This world is just so evil. How can any god let any of this happen?
the IDF/benny cant have a PR campaign against him, her being so infamous internationally brings more attention to the matter. hes already in a tenous position, he wants to stay out of jail from his previous crimes.
rational people would understand that either god doesn’t exist, or that he’s evil and should not be worshipped
Reading the Bible, I don’t know how you’d come to any other conclusion but that God is a Monster.
welp: there’s your problem! right here:
Reading the Bible
I am constantly surprised by how many people worshiping the thing haven’t actually fucking read it. Or just heard some cherry picked platitudes from it in church.
Indoctrination is a hell of a drug
welp

The Epicurian Paradox. God claims to be omnipresent, omnipotent, and omnibenevolent. But the mere existence of evil overwhelmingly disproves this claim:
- If god is able and willing to stop evil, but evil is able to hide from/fool god, god cannot be omnipresent.
- If god is able to find all evil and willing to stop it, but unable to do so, god cannot be omnipotent.
- If god is able to find evil and stop it, but unwilling to do so, god cannot be omnibenevolent.
In any of the three cases, if evil exists, god has been proven a liar in at least one of the three claims. Potentially two, or even all three. But at least one must be true if evil exists. And if at least one is true and god is a liar, why are we following him?
I also agree with this. Sure if one day something does show up, we can change our minds then. I’m sure the evil phuck would understand.
Gaza is under a siege designed to oppress and break the population so that they can’t fight back, israel forces control everything that goes in and use it as a tool to displace people.
No gods no kings
There isn’t one, silly
Exactly! But we should still be good to each other. It feels better when everyone is happy.
Why can’t they just let Gretta win?
I mean… They did, didn’t they? It was never the goal to actually get there. The goal was obviously media attention (again) and we are now commenting under a news article…
Its just a few truck loads of food.
That’s the point… Why let a few influencers enter a war zone with the risk of them getting killed when they could instead easily let a few trucks waiting in front of the boarder enter Gaza?
Risk them getting footage of the absolute devastation more like. Nothing can be allowed in, especially cameras.
Yeah, why doesn’t Israel just let the trucks waiting at the border in? I wager it is the same reason they stopped the flotilla.
I am massivelly curious about what the reaction of Italian dockworkers to the Italian frigate doing jack-shit nothing will be …
Strike called in Italy, protests flare over interception of Gaza aid ships
Italian unions called a general strike for Friday in solidarity with the international aid flotilla for Gaza, while protests sprang up in a number of cities late on Wednesday after reports that the ships had been intercepted by military personnel. In the southern city of Naples, demonstrators got into the main railway station and halted train traffic, while police surrounded the Termini railway station in Rome after protesters gathered close to entrances.
…
In the northwestern city of Genoa, the USB announced that it intended to block the port and called on all protesters to gather at 10 p.m. (2000 GMT) at one of the main entrances. Over the past two weeks, protesting Italian dockworkers have prevented various ships from docking and loading, targeting vessels they say were involved in trade with Israel.
I don’t think they expected the crew of that ship to go Last Samurai here
high seas piracy, and NATO cannot keep the Mediterranean safe.
Fuck Israel. Fuck the whole evil country. Religion is fucking stupid anyway, so a theocratic country is extra stupid.
Release the hostages, Israel!
You mean the thousands of Palestinian hostages including women and children too, right?
Yes, all of them
Every single Palestinian living in Gaza is basically a hostage at this point
Maybe the Italians should strike again until their navy actually protects the flotilla
No doubt they’ll do what they did last time and just force her to watch Oct 7th footage and go “…Are you… Are you convinced yet? Please be convinced… Please”
So much for all those ships sent to protect it. So much performative theater.
