For the crime of delivering food. Insanity.

Standford prison experiment if it was a nation

The problem's that it'll always be her word vs theirs, so there's plausible deniability.
Unless they're dumb enough to post on social media... then it would be interesting.

I'm sure our european, government-funded and therfore independend public broadcasting services will be outraged after they hear that our cute little Greta was tortured in a prison that looks Guantanamo-like, with blood and bullet holes in the cells!

The most just army of the world torturing a young, peaceful lady. An army we support!

This will result in weeks of coverage: Politicians being interviewed, human rights experts, Greta herself, debates on what sanctions should be put on Israel....

Just kidding. They'll hide it between news about a massacre in Africa and the weather report. And in two days, it will all be forgotten.

they are such good and righteous jews, writing whore and drawing a penis right next to the star of david.

A bunch of guards lined up to take selfies with me while I was sitting like that

Really says a lot about the IDF and Israel that they're always so excited to document the horrible things they do. They're taking pictures so they can show other people. They think other Israelis - their friends and family - will be excited to see pictures of someone being treated horribly. Reminds me of Rachel Corrie and how they found her murder so funny they'd make pancakes with her face on it. What kind of person celebrates murder like that, and what kind of society allows such public celebration of it?

She's a non-violent protestor. Why do they take so much joy in being violent to her?

"What we have been through is only a small, small part of what Palestinians have experienced. "

Say what you will of Greta, but her ability to remain humble is truly admirable.

If they do this to a person they know the world is watching and will hear from, think of how much worse it is for the untold nameless gazans taken hostage by Israel.

Israelis are sick fucks. Their country is the Nazi Germany of our time. How ironic. Their ancestors are likely spinning in their graves.

Funny that Israel just demolished Palestine's nation and "found peace" while Trump was being blamed for Greta's boating incident because he hates her and "windmills". This world is full of corrupt old men. I just want them all to die with their regimes.

I have to say I've been on fence about her in the past but she is willing to put herself in there to bring attention to the issue. Having said that if she goes back they will kill her. She isn't dealing with decent human beings. She is dealing with the type of people who poisons people in 'showers' and makes those they let live shovel the bodies in to furnaces. Of course they have a word for people who express that reality. It used to mean something but their repeated misuse of it have made it meaningless.

I know she wants to stay humble and keep the focus on Palestinian suffering, but it’s important everyone on the flotilla share their experience at the hands of the Israelis.

Every person needs to return to their home country to speak on the depravity of the Israelis and their treatment of foreign nationals to highlight their cruelty and the horrors they inflict upon the population that’s 100% under their control and every whim, who the world has ignored for decades. Of the children held in those same cells deprived of food, water, bedding and often subjected to sexual abuse by both male and female guards.

Why are certain countries so obsessed with flags?

pathetic.

Readind that article makes me... I don't know. I'm not 'mad', I'm fucking restless. First, the torture, sure. We knew the current* Israeli government is monstrous. (*I don't know about all the previous ones, I'm not versed in Israeli history.) But the response from the Swedish embassy?

And, after all that, what's the response of the world? Similar to the Swedish government response as shown here. Evasive, absolutely unwilling to stand up to the monsters. Being monsters themselves by proxy.

I feel like I must act, but know not what to do. I'm restless. I feel like our world is stuck in some kind of non-Newtonian liquid made of Capital, Hunger for Power and Gutlessness. I feel like I want to round up all those monsters, ship them on an island and make sure there's no way out - have fun amongst yourselves, monsters. I know this isn't realist. I know not what to do. Calling my minister here in Canada doesn't do shit - our government is as gutless as all others. Standing in the street hasn't done much either, nor participating in event in support of Gaza and the wish to put an end to the massacre and torture of a whole people.

'I have no mouth, and I must scream'

And yet she's braver and more courageous than any Israeli will ever be.

Even the comic-book bullies are better than this... The sad part is that the West will continue to lick the boot, hoping everyone will just forget. I really hope that that is not the case. What Greta did here is very impressive, and I hope that her spirit will inspire other young people to vote out these dumbfucks in government that try to do damage control in this situation.
