According to Israel's Foreign Ministry, the Madleen was redirected to the Israeli port of Ashdod, and the passengers would be returned to their countries of origin. The ministry released a video showing the activists wearing life vests and receiving food and water. In a statement posted online, it described the ship as a "selfie yacht" and said the aid would be transferred to Gaza through established procedures.
The civilian vessel, named Madleen and operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC), was stopped in international waters. The Israeli military stated that the interception was part of enforcement measures related to its longstanding naval blockade of Gaza. The FFC said the group was attempting to deliver humanitarian aid, including food, baby formula and medical supplies.
The Israeli government stated that unauthorized attempts to breach the blockade are "unlawful" and "undermine ongoing humanitarian efforts."
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said he instructed the Israel Defense Forces to prevent the Madleen from reaching Gaza and that the passengers would be shown a video of the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks upon their arrival in Israel.
Israel and Egypt have maintained a blockade of Gaza since 2007, following the takeover of the territory by Hamas. Israel says the restrictions are aimed at preventing the import of weapons and materials used by militant groups; and that all passengers "are safe and unharmed."

This ship of fools. Lets say there there are 20 onboard. Offer to show them the sights that might change their thinking. Show them towns with Israeli Muslims. Show them the female IDF. Show them IDF rehab centers for the wounded. Show them mosques and churches.
If not volunteers, then take the 10 most intelligent and force them to see some of Israel that will make an impact om them.
The IDF might have saved that little skank’s life. Who knows if the muslim dudes she was on the ship with might have had plans to hand her over to Hamas for a tidy sum? I put nothing past them.
Written, rehearsed and filmed days ago
Gaza-bound ‘Freedom Flotilla Coalition’ boat carrying Greta Thunberg boarded by Israeli forces
“Selfie Yacht”. That’s funny.
cant believe she hasnt been cast in an “EXORCIST” movie of some type..
Duly added to my political vocabulary. { snicker }
That’s a very interesting picture, meaning that brat can actually smile. And for some reason she’s not looking like a retard as she typically does.
I have a feeling her mental capacity is such that she can be easily led, much like Biden with his dementia. I’m guessing she was conned into going on this stupid boat ride and probably quite scared. By looking at the picture she seems quite happy, and possibly relieved she’s safe. In the mean time her handlers are making propaganda stories out of it.
Whatever the story behind her insane little crusade, it’s all an act. We are shown only what they intend us to see, which is completely inconsistent with pictures like this and others.
Who gives a flying f@ck what Greta Thunberg Consultants has to say?
Yay....Of course the little princess is thrilled....
The Jews do know show business!
>> take the 10 most intelligent and force them to see some of Israel that will make an impact on them
I like your thinking man’s optimistic long view but I’d prefer to simply “make an impact on them”. Good and hard, leave marks. If you know what I mean (and I think you do).
>> “Selfie Yacht”. That’s funny. ==> The Jews do know show business!
ROFL
Ok, so her climate change aka global warming rants don’t seem to be working, so she has to switch gears and pretend she’s active in some other cause. She was about to enter a country illegally. I think the Israelis are treating her very well considering. I would not be so nice.
” I’m guessing she was conned into going on this stupid boat “
I believe her far-left whacko parents have been pulling her strings from the get-go. But she might have become a true believer over time, as much as her puny brain is capable of thinking.
