Keir Starmer has ‘legal duty to stop Gaza genocide’, says Greta Thunberg
The Guardian ^ | Sun 7 Sep 2025 | Robyn Vinter

Keir Starmer must obey his “legal duty to act to prevent a genocide”, Greta Thunberg has told the Guardian while travelling onboard an aid flotilla heading for Gaza.

The Swedish activist said there was a “huge absence of those whose legal responsibility it is to step up” under international law, and called out the UK prime minister before a potential meeting this week with Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog.

In a message to Starmer, who has been urged by his own MPs not to meet the Israeli head of state on Wednesday, Thunberg said: “The words we will use to describe people who are standing on the wrong side of history, supporting or committing war crimes, those words do not exist yet, those slurs do not exist yet, but we will be using them towards people like [Starmer].”

She said people around the world were “waking up” to what is happening to the Palestinian people and refusing to “watch a livestream genocide” take place.

“We have seen civilians all over the world stepping up but there is a huge absence of those whose legal responsibility it is to step up,” she said. “These governments, these people in power, have a legal duty to act to prevent a genocide and to not support an apartheid regime.”

No 10 has refused to confirm whether the prime minister intends to meet Herzog, who was highlighted by international court of justice judges in a case after he blamed the “entire nation” of Palestine for the attack on Israel on 7 October 2023, when Hamas-led militants killed about 1,200 people and took 251 hostages.

Starmer has an ethical duty to protect his Country’s borders, language and culture.

Forget the rental Ukrainian Yutes.

...and why should anyone care what The Bad Swede has to say? Who, exactly, appointed her as an authority on ANYTHING?

I’d listen to a cartoon character, or that crazy drunk lying on a mattress behind the liquor store, before I’d listen to her.

She probably set the fire herself with a gas can explosion.
Her ego thrives on notoriety……her parents should have shut her down a long time ago because now she feels she’s nothing without it.

So a Swedish protester tells a British Prime Minister to end a genocide that isn’t actually happening. Who makes this shit up?

“Keir Starmer has ‘legal duty to stop Gaza genocide’, says Greta Thunberg”

So Greta does believe in violence.

She’s certainly on *something*.
Psych meds is my guess.
