not sure what happened there tho xD
It’s a propaganda mission. The port is under blockade so the ship will be boarded. This is something that’s legal under international law everyone knows this and everyone knows it will be boarded. The point isn’t to bring aid to Gaza, the point is to create a video of Israel boarding the ship.
The ghouls that monetize the suffering Hamas has created want you to watch and are hoping someone dies so they can monetize it, just as they’ve monetized every aspect of the suffering of Palestinians. Since they’ve successfully monetized human suffering they seek to extend the war as long as possible to maximize profits.

Serious question: why would more visibility keep it safer? Israel continues to commit far worse crimes against humanity, very openly, on a daily basis. Why would this be any different?
Well tracker showing nothing, so what’s the story.
Because there is a point of no return in the worlds perception of you, the U.S. has been protecting Israel from that, but every time someone asks difficult questions of Israel and isn’t silenced or hurt the powers of fascism lose respect from other evil people because they look weak.
More eyes on Greta means Israel has to make a choice it doesn’t want to, de-escalate. The IDF is trained in committing genocide with military weapons, they are utterly untrained in fighting an actual war at this point, they really have very little leverage to continue the genocide of palestinians now, though of course “too little too late” is the necessary refrain.
The audience viewing Greta’s ship getting bombed will be a subset of people who care about Palestine. Israel wouldn’t give half a shit.
The only way for her to do this safely is if she became an official diplomat of Sweden.
Lol, ok.
That imagery will be remembered as a pivotal moment in world history and Greta would become (if not literally) basically a Saint.
I don’t think Netanyahu wants that, which is why it is the perfect move.
They havent committed atrocities against anybody who isnt brown yet tho. The Ukraine Effect obviously cant kick in unless they kill a Norwegian
I suppose both a valid point, but also worth considering that 22 years ago was a hot minute ago, especially in a generational conflict
The dogleg is from responding to a mayday from a sinking refugee boat carrying 30-40 people. Due to complications, only the 4 people that jumped off and swam towards the floatilla were able to be rescued. The remaining are presumed to be taken back by the Libyan coast guard where they’ll be punished with violence, detention, and torture in Libya.
You got me curious, so I found a source https://apnews.com/article/freedom-flotilla-thunberg-migrant-rescue-gaza-1c2de4094cda1173c87c570705268157
What are they planning to do with those refugees? Surely they can’t just take them to Gaza too?
No, especially since Gaza is under a military blockade. They’ll all be arrested and sent back to their respective countries. It’s all just a show with no real-world consequences.
I think Israel has shown that they’ll do worse than just arrest them. I’m just saying, the activists signed up to this with a clear knowledge of what could happen, those refugees didn’t. So the moral thing to do is to drop them off somewhere, but that derails their whole plan as they could be detained in that port.
I guess they are under the protection of the ships flag
For what its worth
So Italy, if they don’t get bombed before they return
I think Gaza is a worse destination than Lybia.
Welcome aboard, good news bad news situation for ya…
Is anyone else genuinely and seriously concerned? Surely they wouldn’t, right?
Not Greta though? I know this seems like a weird tipping point considering all we’ve seen, but I don’t know how I’d handle that.
They’ve crossed every red line that Biden drew without consequences, and Trump has basically said there’s no red lines except for temporary cease fires to get US hostages out. They think they can get away with anything and it doesn’t sound like there’s any moderating voices in either the IDF or government.
Thanks for the link ! the shape of their route off Crete looks like me trying to parallel park. I hope they continue to be safe.
I like that they don’t push Thunberg being part of it.
I saw a pro israel website not mentionning an israeli activist in the boat
Right. But what do you think of her new hair?
Last time I watched one of these, my fav mountain climber fell to their death and I was wondering why he hadn’t moved between Camp 2 and Camp 3 for two days.
Diversion was due to asylum seekers in distress.
Godspeed
