Dont let people fool you about there being a London hamas operative behind Greta and the ship.

It's just an accusation by Israel that is provided with no proof. Seeing as how he lives in London and they are a major ally of Israel you would think they would provide the proof for it so that there is not a free hamas operative walking around London. They don't have the proof for it obviously, its just a smear to turn people away from those trying to help the people of Gaza. I've even seen people claim Greta is a hamas supporter. This is ridiculous and disgusting and exactly what a authoritarian government does. Shame on anyone doing this.

1. The absurd lie of the "dangerous anti-semite/ publicity hound/ Jihadist-Greta" - lol - is meant to distract us from...

The darkness of Israel's actions. The schemed-starvation and murder of aid seekers continues. Happened again today, with over a dozen killed, many more wounded.

The sham GHF set up by Israel has closed its aid centres - with NO DATE SET FOR REOPENING. It says it is for Palestinians' own PROTECTION. However they are far from protected - they are being shot by the IDF for even approaching the sites. Starving, and having been forced to walk for up to 8 hours. Then either killed or having to walk back empty-handed.

THEY NEED PROTECTION FROM THE IDF for heaven's sake! International forces must step in. These people have NOTHING to eat and Israel has schemed it so that they can't access food without being shot or terrorized.

Greta's message and mission is to bring awareness to the forced and schemed-starvation in Gaza and the other crimes of Israel -and to mobilize people to force their governments to ACT!

But I totally agree with you - all the ridiculous and laughable assertions don't stand up to scrutiny or common sense. Signs of desparation... but in their defense, it must be hard to know and hide from yourself that your side is not only starving babies but committing crimes against humanity like extermination for heaven's sake!

VIENNA (Reuters) -U.N. experts said in a report on Tuesday that Israel committed the crime against humanity of "extermination" by killing civilians sheltering in schools and religious sites in Gaza, part of a "concerted campaign to obliterate Palestinian life."

"We are seeing more and more indications that Israel is carrying out a concerted campaign to obliterate Palestinian life in Gaza," former U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay, who chairs the commission, said in a statement.

"Israel's targeting of the educational, cultural and religious life of the Palestinian people will harm the present generations and generations to come, hindering their right to self-determination," she added.

In its report, the commission said Israel had destroyed more than 90% of school and university buildings and more than half of all religious and cultural sites in Gaza.

"Israeli forces committed war crimes, including directing attacks against civilians and wilful killing, in their attacks on educational facilities ... In killing civilians sheltering in schools and religious sites, Israeli security forces committed the crime against humanity of extermination," it said.

No shit Sherlock. With all due respect to the UN.

4. Like with any mass psychosis and mass denials, the moment of truth...

Or reckoning... is inevitable. That sort of cognitive dissonance and mental/emotional dissociation can be maintained if you're in the MAGA cult but who would want to be like them, right?

OTOH never underestimate the power and sway of tribalism compounded by decades of indoctrination, national myth-making and demonization and dehumanization of the people who are oppressed and occupied by the country you idolize and think is necessary for your survival. It really isn't easy, but doing the right thing rarely is.
