Israel Blocks Greta Thunberg’s High-Seas Stunt

I think the IDF should have made them sail back the way they came! Who paid for her trip back home? If Israel paid, they should bill her!

"Do you think Greta's boat should have been allowed to reach Gaza?" Absolutely not. She is nothing more than a self serving piece of euro-trash. Jumping onboard with anything that might get her name back in the news.

I would have handled this differently. I would have allowed them to visit Gaza, where they would see that the people are not starving and life is pretty good despite Hamas everywhere. IDF did show some class by feeding them but unfortunately, they walked out of the video. Sorry, this should have been mandatory watching so they could see what really happened on 10/7/23.

This was definitely a publicity stunt, perpetrated by well-known persons from political and TV fame. If their aim was to help Gazans, they would have had more aid aboard than they were carrying. I agree that the fighters on the ground would have grabbed them, holding them hostage and that Israel 'saved' them from an embarrassing situation that may have turned deadly. There are better ways to make your point than to put yourself and others in danger.

No, she shouldn't have been allowed to reach Gaza. Who knows what fate awaited them if they did. Greta Thunberg is feeding off the publicity. She'll keep doing stunts until she stops getting publicity. She should be ignored and go away!

Israel should go fetch those dumped phones and try to retrieve the messages on them.

I might have let them go to Gaza, where they would either be laughed out of Gaza by Hamas, or taken hostage, but only after having checked the boat thoroughly to make sure there were no weapons or money that Hamas could use, and telling all of them that Israel will STILL be shooting and bombing and these people need to sign a waiver saying they understand that they are accepting responsibility for their own safety and will not expect a cease fire to happen if they are taken as hostages.

We have more important things to be busying ourselves with than this "persons" nonsense.

The vessel DID reach Gaza. Israel saved their lives by removing Greta and said company from the "flotilla," before they reached the terrors of Hamas. They would have been held for ransom. The less popular would have been BEHEADED, as an example and a warning. Greta and Co. should be Kissing Israel's butt!

Great job on the part of the IDF. Never cater to fools. Bruce's idea is wonderful, but I seriously doubt Greta and her cohorts would have acknowledged the truth even seeing it in full view. This is the problem with the uneducated. Their "truth" is whatever they wish to make it and their overblown egos revel in displays of self-righteousness. Losers.

I think Israel should have put them all into viewable individual holding rooms, one at a time, with the Hamas video playing on a loop. Should have been kept there until tears could be observed streaming down their cheeks. Only after that should they have been sent back home !

Israel did exactly what it should’ve done—for their own security and for Thunberg’s crew’s safety. They tried to sneak in by boat, in the dead of night, like cowards. In America, we call that what it is: illegal entry. That makes her an illegal immigrant, plain and simple. No port of entry, no clearance, no respect for the law—just entitled activists thinking the rules don’t apply to them. She should be treated accordingly. No exceptions.

She and her companions should have been incarcerated like Hamas incarcerated their prisoners'.

Glad that IDF did what they can do to stop them and sent Greta back home. She wasn’t kidnapped. Glad that they stoped their goal to Gaza. I wouldn’t be surprise if they tried again but secretly without letting the world know. IDF will need to keep their hawk’s eyes on Greta and her group!

No, no, no They should have been forced to watch the the film with the atrocities that took place. They then would have been silenced. Maybe they might have changed their stance on the current situation.Personally I think they are seeking attention as that seems boost their self esteem. They are children who will never grow up.

This boat should have immediately been blown out of the water, These people are accomplices to terrorists

Yes, the IDF should have let them enter the Hamas paradise.

I don't see how Israel could have done anything differently than they did. The prejudiced world press will frame it totally differently than it was. The world sees what it wants to see and that is that Israel is the aggressor and the root of all evil. I don't know how anyone can change their closed minds. Until, perhaps, it is too late...

No..... End of conversation. Nothing else to say. JJW

so sick of these people. the U.S. i being attacked and funded by ideologically by left wing haters under the banner of 'climate change' and equity regarding every 3rd world group that they feel is owed something by U.S. citizens.

Of ourse she should have been allowed into an occupation zone. Why not?

How would Greta feel if she lived next to terrorists who kidnapped her friends and neighbors?

NO

The IDF was right to intercept them at see. They were uninvited, and therefore had no legal right to land. What I would have done differently, rather than fly them back in the comfort of commercial airlines, is to have loaded them in the back of a military cargo plane for the return journey. Let them experience the discomfort that people who REALLY work for the safety of their country endure all the time.

Y are the people so hateful towards israel there is problem with Nigeria , Sudam and so many closed countries but yet they pick on israel , Thunberg and her so called activist has neither knows history nor the Bible nor is she genuinely interested in the lives of the people . She does need attention. That's the problem
