There’s an old joke line that says, “Don’t confuse me with facts.” It’s also a leftist line of argument. I used to try to argue with a leftist about politics, but whenever I’d bring in facts to counter his theories, he’d storm out, furious that I was polluting the discussion with how the world actually works.
Greta Thunberg is a leftist down to the marrow of her bones, so she, too, refuses to have her ideological purity tainted by the facts. That’s why, when Israel attempted to show her and her fellow “selfie” yacht comrades footage of the October 7 atrocities, much of it filmed by the Gazans who committed those atrocities, they refused to watch:
Defense Minister Israel Katz says the detained activists from the boat that intended to break Israel’s blockade on the Gaza Strip refused to view a video showing atrocities committed by the Hamas terror group on October 7, 2023.
“Greta [Thunberg] and her flotilla companions were taken into a room upon their arrival for a screening of the horror film of the October 7 massacre, and when they saw what it was about, they refused to continue watching,” Katz says in a statement.
“The antisemitic flotilla members are turning a blind eye to the truth and have proven once again that they prefer the murderers to the murdered and continue to ignore the atrocities committed by Hamas against Jewish and Israeli women, adults, and children,” he adds.
Thunberg and her comrades (and please note that the old Soviet word “comrades” is her word, not mine, as the video below shows) know that their theories cannot survive reality. Because they have no argument to counter what happened in Israel on October 7, they hew to the principle that “if ignorance is bliss, ‘tis folly to be

Don’t feed them until they watch the video and pass a test on the content.
Ignorance is the fuel of leftoidism.
Tape her eyes open and clamp her head so she can’t look away from the screen. Couple that with limited sleep opportunities.
“taken into a room upon their arrival for a screening of the horror film of the October 7 massacre, and when they saw what it was about, they refused to continue watching,” Katz says in a statement.”
How? They are prisoners under detention. Lock them in a room and play it on a loop. How exactly do they “refuse”?
Of course she did..she doesn’t want to be exposed to the TRUTH of the horror of that day..if she did she would have to admit she is an absolute idiot for supporting Hamas
Exactly lock them in the room and what are they going to do, close their eyes and refuse to watch it..just lock the door and thats it
The Leftist argument is more like, “Don’t confuse me with the truth”.
Lock them in the room with a screen they cannot access or vandalize. Have guards in the room.
Play the video Hamas made of the rapes, the mutilation, the burning, the torture, the begging, and the laughter of the Palestinians. Play it for 8 solid hours with no break.
Have cameras filming the detainees for their reactions. If they laugh, express horror, turn away and cover their eyes... any reaction you record would help show the world who they are.
And the Israelis should release the tapes with zero filter. Let the world see what Palestinians are about. I get the idea of protecting the innocent. But if they did those things to you, would you rather it be kept secret for only the highest in government to see? Or would you rather everyone see? I would like it out there... so the movement out there wailing for Gaza would be exposed as the monsters they are.
This is exactly why Eisenhower had film crews rushed to the German death camps to video everything. Imagine if those films didn’t exist.
And yes, if they close their eyes and refuse to watch it, take video of them doing so. Then expose them to the world as frauds unwilling to watch videos literally made BY their Gaza heroes.
Yes! And cross project it on all four walls.
Can make quite the list of others who deserve the same experience.

Hamas Apologist Greta Refuses to
Acknowledge Hamas Islamic Terrorism
1. The father of lies - satan
2. The greatest deceiver - allah
Of course not.
They don’t want their little liberal utopia bubble burst.
And they don’t care what others went though.
Hard to believe the Israelis can be such bad asses and at times such wimps.
They should have forced them to watch that video … one way or another
Greta was deported and landed in Paris I saw the video of her upon arrival.
They should have made it a condition of her release.
I keep hoping someday FR will include a like button. I like your post.
Israeli political leaders that scheme to the top almost uniformly lack trust in God and certainly have no fear of God, so they cower at the EU and US. The boots-on-the-ground IDF have soldier’s instinct, not political instinct.
