Little Miss Greenpeace, Greta Thunberg, decided to play captain and sailed a so-called ‘aid’ boat straight into Israeli waters, right into the middle of a war zone. Predictably, the Israeli forces seized the boat and detained little Greta and her entourage of activists.
This isn’t a simple rescue mission or a humanitarian effort as the drive-by media wants you to believe. This is a classic case of virtue signaling, of liberals using a serious situation to gain brownie points and media limelight. It’s demonstrably absurd!
The Freedom Flotilla Coalition – the group behind this seafaring sideshow – claimed their crew was ‘kidnapped by Israeli forces’. Kidnapped? Really folks? They literally sailed into a military blockade. What did they expect, a welcoming committee?
Israel isn’t buying into this circus act. They’ve called out the voyage for what it truly is: a cheap PR stunt. They described Thunberg’s vessel as the ‘selfie yacht of the celebrities’, and I couldn’t agree more.
These activists are not saviours. They’re egotists playing a dangerous game in a war-torn region. They’re not delivering ‘desperately needed aid’. No, they’re delivering photo-ops and soundbites for the biased media back home.
The Israeli military even offered sandwiches and water to these activists aboard the yacht. Now, does that sound like ‘kidnapping’ to you? Of course not! Yet, the liberal media won’t tell you this part.
The Israelis have been very transparent. They said the aid will be sent to Gaza through established channels. The activists, including our young climate campaigner, Thunberg, will return to their home countries. A far cry from the ‘kidnapping’ narrative, wouldn’t you say?
Yet, the drive-by media continues to peddle their tales of woe and injustice. They’ll have you believe that this was an unspeakable act of aggression by the Israelis. But this was nothing more than a poorly executed publicity stunt.
