Israel's Backers Are Now Advocating The Assassination Of Greta Thunberg (www.caitlinjohnst.one)

US Senator Lindsay Graham has just tweeted an article titled “Greta Thunberg sets sail with Gaza flotilla that aims to break Israeli naval blockade,” adding the comment, “Hope Greta and her friends can swim!”

Australian Zionist think tanker Arsen Ostrovsky somehow outdid Graham, tweeting “Oh look, the little jihadi Greta Thunberg is trying to get into Gaza, to show solidarity with Hamas. It would be so sad if something were to happen to her flotilla…”

There’s not a lot that can shock me about Israel and its supporters these days. But if you’d traveled back in time a few years ago it would be hard to explain to someone how we got to a timeline that includes Israel supporters openly advocating the assassination of Greta Thunberg.

When I see this cunt, Lindsay Graham, my BP rises up to 1000!

Hopefully, he'll get a stroke or something similar soon!

The first time I heard of that rat bastard was in 2012 when he declared that people accused of terrorism have no right to a lawyer. Fuck him. Fuck him to hell.

Any time I hear his name, all I can think about are his ladybugs. 🤢

I rather that he gets outed and his gop friends turn on him first

I think they only really care about power. Whether Lindsey Graham is "Lady Lindsey" or not is a triviality for the peasants to fight over.

He could still get the Ernst Rohm treatment if things get really out of hand.
