The Israeli troops have taken control of the British-flagged charity vessel Madleen, which had tried to break a naval blockade of the Gaza Strip. The boat–operated by the pro-Palestinian Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC)–with its crew of 12, including activist Greta Thunberg, is now heading to a port in Israel, officials said on Sunday.
The FCC posted a pre-recorded “SOS” video of Thunberg on X and said, " the volunteers on ‘Madleen’ have been kidnapped by Israeli forces. Pressure their foreign ministries and help us keep them safe!"
“the west”? No, I don’t think so either.
Being an American though, I could absolutely see “the United States government via Trump and the republican party almost unanimously” cheering her torture and death, and honestly I personally know people who would probably pay to watch it happen live.
I believe people in the Israeli government recognize how bad that would look and likely have even issued orders not to harm her or anyone who was with her directly.
However, I also believe that a politicians orders mean about as much as a fart in the wind to anyone in the militarh if they believe differently and think they can get away with it. And as TV shows and movies like to say, “accidents happen”
