U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday urged Swedish career protester Greta Thunberg to see a doctor because, “… for a young person, she’s so angry. She’s so crazy.” Trump was speaking after Thunberg was deported from Israel along with 170 other activists who were detained while taking part in a flotilla bound for Gaza, as Breitbart News reported. He was asked about Thunberg during a press conference at the Oval Office. The president’s advice to the left-wing Swede was simple: “She is just a troublemaker … She has an anger management problem. I think she should see a doctor. If...

German prosecutors say police recovered an AK-47, several pistols and ammo intended to be used in deadly attacks on Israeli or Jewish institutionsGerman police arrested three men they suspect of preparing a serious attack against Jewish targets in Germany for Hamas, prosecutors said on Wednesday, a week before the second anniversary of the Palestinian Islamist terror group’s attack on Israel.

Newly discovered documents connect Hamas to two key organizers of Greta Thunberg's Global Sumud Flotilla and reveal that dozens of the fleet's boats are owned by the terror group, Israel's Foreign Ministry announced Tuesday. One document released by the agency showed a list of operatives in the Popular Conference for Palestinians Abroad (PCPA), an Israeli-designated terror group that counts Hamas terrorists and flotilla leaders among its members. It included Saif Abu Kashk, the CEO of Cyber Neptune, which Israel's Foreign Ministry called a Hamas front company in Spain that "owns dozens of the ships participating in the 'Sumud' flotilla." "Thus,...

A single "queer activist" has thrown Greta Thunberg’s Gaza-bound flotilla into disarray, with several participants blasting the group’s leaders and at least one coordinator ditching it entirely. The beleaguered Global Sumud Flotilla aims to bypass Israel’s blockade to deliver aid to Gaza. But when self-described "queer activist" Saif Ayadi joined the effort, Khaled Boujemâa, a Tunisian coordinator for the flotilla, resigned in anger. "We were lied to about the identity of some of the participants at the forefront of the flotilla," he said in a Sept. 14 video posted to Facebook, the French outlet Le Courrier de l'Atlas reported, according...

This is too hilarious to be true. But apparently it is, and it couldn't be more entertaining, wondering how it's going to play out. You know, the part where indulged, hedonistic, virtue-signaling, bubble-wrapped Westerners run straight into that ugly brick wall known as 'third world cultures' on their territory, not in the safe laboratory of a London or San Francisco street protest. Their first big mistake of the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF), a multinational convoy of several dozen vessels seeking to breach Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza, was picking St Scowly Pants to lead the repeated watery charge into Gaza....

The fire on Greta Thunberg’s Gaza-bound flotilla was likely started by one of the activists onboard, according to authorities in Tunisia — who said there was “no basis in truth” that it was struck by a drone. Tunisia’s Interior Ministry said there were no drones detected when Thunberg’s Global Sumud Flotilla [GSF] claimed it was hit by one Monday, starting a fire as it was off the Tunisian port of Sidi Bou Said. The ministry maintained that the group’s claim that a drone attack started the fire had “no basis in truth” — and that it was likely started onboard,...

The European Union said on Monday it doesn’t “encourage” aid flotillas heading to Gaza, as vessels carrying humanitarian aid and pro-Palestinian activists including Greta Thunberg sail for the war-ravaged territory. “We don’t encourage flotillas like this, because basically they can escalate the situation, and they also put their participants at risk,” EU spokeswoman Eva Hrncirova said. She said the EU believes the “best way … to deliver the humanitarian aid” is via partner organizations working on the ground. …
