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.”

Good thing Sweden isn’t Israel or else they’d have bombed their hospitals already.

Did Hamas rape hospital directors to death or did Israel do that.
Both do and did boss, shitty point.
Source on Hamas doing that?
Raping? Really? It’s a war it’s literally the thing we’ve been doing since the beginning of time.

Again, it’s a war we likely won’t know the full extent of anything really but to take the basic assumption that any combatant force doesn’t have rapists would be both contrary to history and basic statistics.
That was debunked over a year ago by The Intercept (among others):

You said did and do. Source?
Na just tired of stupid discussions on internet, you win, bye
Isn’t boarding and taking over a ship in international waters piracy?
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

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.
why would they care about breaking laws at this point?
Bibi is already wanted by the ICC so why stop now?
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.
We have always lived under “might makes right”. Ask any country that has been under the boot of western imperialism.
This is just the collapse of the charade of “rule of law” as the stranglehold of the western might begins to slip.
this country is run and heavily populated with most vile criminals ever to exist
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.
that seems like an unnecessary maligning of mexican drug cartels.
“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…
Quite a thing to create the world’s most dire need for humanitarian aid in the history of the species and then criticize any aid as tiny in comparison to the need you’ve manufactured
Facts.
tiny amount of aid
This is like someone with a micropenis criticizing the genitals of a kitten.
Nah they’ll actually dangle the food in front of starving people to draw a crowd and then bomb them.
Fucking monsters.
It’s not a war crime, it was a warning bomb.
Fucking genocidal assholes
Israel has a reputation for not even following through on these basic minute propaganda gestures. Because they are comically evil.
Nah, they will give it to their ISIS aligned collaborators and then shoot anyone/bomb anyone else who goes near it.
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 ?
I don’t think kidnapped should be in " ", it’s an entirely literal act of piracy and terrorism
The media is complicit.
Of course idf kidnaps a kid

She was no dummy. But was always going to die this way.
(I only assume she is dead.)
I can understand where the fear that she’ll be killed comes from, but I really don’t think that’s what will happen. She’s too high profile, and her and the others know it. That’s what’s part of what makes this such a bold move. They were basically daring Israel to do something about it. There is a legitimate chance of harm coming to them, but I really expect they’ll just be released in a few days.
