So they're torturing her. Israel is torturing her.
Israel has no way to win in this situation. Torturing her will result in media backlash. Executing her would only make a martyr, which is even worse. Somehow, Israel didn’t choose to kick her out immediately.
The worst thing Israel could have done to discredit Greta Thunberg and damage her brand would have been to give her a nice meal, a warm bed in a nice hotel, gently push her onboard the next 1st class flight back to Stockholm the next day and release a statement telling her to go play SJW somewhere else. Instead, they're doing everything possible to confirm they're truly bad people, like dumbasses.
Theyre fucking orcs. Hit that 'translate from Hebrew' button. Only other language you'll see anyone say anything even close to that vile is German.
Huh, translate what? I'm confused
Anything from that vile fucking conlang.
True.
And I think I have an explanation for that:
We do not often read how Israeli politicians talk, verbatim*. They got used responding only to their own media landscape, where apparently they can go much farther in their rhetoric (and subsequent actions) without repercussions. There's also some deep-seated misogyny specifically against women of other race/religion or however they define that for themselves. Like, they'd never do that if she was a typical NY Jew, for example.
Of course that isn't the whole picture; we must also look at the unquestioning support they've been getting from most "Western" countries which no doubt contributed to them developing this sort of impunity.
* Netanyahu often speaks English when addressing the world. It's still bad enough, but it allows him to present a different picture to the world than to his constituency.
They realize that kicking her out just means she will be on her way back on the next boat. They are trying to intimidate her into not coming back.
I hope the Swedish government has a harsh answer for one of their citizens getting kidnapped in International Waters.
Israel has no way to win in this situation.
They could have not taken her hostage.
The Swedish government, and the EU commission is not making nearly enough noise as it should here.
Exactly the kind of thing Israel would do. Such a horrible nation, such horrible people.
Like that time they used an armored water cannon full of stinky shit... Or the time they cut the tail off a CIA agents pet dog.
