The Greta photo that exposes the hollowness of Leftie activism
Telegraph ^ | 09 June 2025 | Stephen Daisley

Thunberg’s pathetic, self-serving stunt ended with sandwiches and water. As Israel’s Foreign Ministry says, the ‘show is over’..

The picture of Greta Thunberg being offered a sandwich and a bottle of water by an IDF soldier is perfect. Here she is, smiling sheepishly, revealing the utter hollowness of her activism. ..

Thunberg and her fellow passengers aboard the MV Madleen, the boat which tried to run the naval blockade of Hamas-run Gaza, have been now taken into custody by the Israeli navy. No injuries ...

Israel described the Madleen as a “media provocation”, but whatever images the activists hoped to come out of their voyage it was probably not Thunberg being given food and water by an Israeli soldier. It is an embarrassing end to a vanity mission for Thunberg, the climate change activist turned ego warrior who has adopted Palestine as her latest cause.

“There are ways to deliver aid to the Gaza Strip – they do not involve Instagram selfies,” the Israeli ministry of foreign affairs said. (Even more cattily, the ministry’s statement referred to Thunberg and her chums as “celebrities”, enclosing the word in deliciously bitchy quotation marks.)

Ah, but Thunberg meant well. It was an act of resistance, a show of solidarity, a sincere effort to get aid to a desperate civilian population. These excuses are somewhat undermined by the discovery on board of less than one truckload of aid...

For context, Israel sent 1,200 truckloads of aid into Gaza in the past fortnight in addition to the 11 million meals delivered by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. While it’s amusing to see HMS TikTok provoke the IDF into nothing more drastic than snack distribution and a free trip to Tel Aviv, no one should doubt the dangerous folly of Thunberg and her companions.

Everything Leftist morons do is ‘just for show’. They never actually want to solve anything, nor do they even know how. Just ‘raise awareness’ is all they know how to do by pulling stupid publicity stunts and mugging for the cameras.

These are the ‘useful idiots’ Lenin and Stalin told us about. They have no clue as to what they are actually doing, they just believe in ‘The Revolution!’.

That is so funny! Thanks. :-)

Paraphrasing Rush, ‘Humor is based on reality.’

Miss you, Rush. Really, really miss you!

This whole debacle probably started as a joke, her and some weirdo friends were likely smoking some wacky weed and she says, hey, let's float down to Gaza and give the IDF some s*hit!...and here we are.

She's nothing more than a child, a retarded child with some very ignorant friends and someday she's going to get someone hurt or worse with one of these stupid stunts.
