ISRAELI Navy forces have intercepted almost two dozen ships from a Gaza-bound international flotilla, and detained more than 200 people onboard, including famed Swedish climate and humanitarian activist Greta Thunberg. The forces ordered the flotilla to change course with the reasoning that they were heading into an active war zone and violating a lawful naval blockade. The activists were sailing toward Gaza with the aim of bringing humanitarian aid and attempting to break the Israeli blockade. On the evening of Wednesday, October 1, the Global Sumud Flotilla, or GSF, said through an Instagram post that Israeli forces had boarded three...

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,...

An international flotilla aiming to breach Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza reported increased drone activity early Wednesday as it approached the region. “We have now entered the high-risk zone, the area where previous flotillas have been attacked and/or intercepted,” the Global Sumud Flotilla announced via Telegram. The flotilla, named Global Sumud, departed Barcelona last month with the stated goal of delivering aid to Gaza and challenging Israel’s security cordon. Global Sumud resumed its voyage Sunday after undergoing repairs in Greek waters. Organizers announced that Greek vessels had joined the mission, bringing the total number of civilian boats to 47. Organizers...

The international flotilla aiming to breach Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza resumed its voyage Sunday after undergoing repairs in Greek waters, Reuters reported. Organizers of the Global Sumud Flotilla announced that Greek vessels had joined the mission, bringing the total number of civilian boats to 47. “Brothers and sisters in Gaza, we sail with hope in our hearts. Your resilience is our compass, your struggle is our struggle. Together, we will break the silence of the siege,” the group declared on social media. The flotilla includes activists from dozens of countries, among them approximately 40 Italians and Swedish climate activist...

Greta left ship in Tunisia because "focus not on Gaza" and got on a different ship/took a plane (confusion). waaah. Transcript linked below video.

Why is anyone surprised that Allah-fearing Koran-bashers and genderfluid Westerners are struggling to get along?Remember when leftists chanted, ‘Yemen, Yemen, make us proud / Turn another ship around!’, goading the medieval anti-Semites of the Houthi movement to bomb merchant ships in the Red Sea? Well, now those same people are blubbing like babies because Israel allegedly pumped some ABBA on to their flotilla of boats heading to Gaza. So it’s fine for a racist militia to rain missiles on the hard-grafting men of merchant ships, but heaven forbid that the Jewish State subject the lily-handed activist class to a bit...

Greta Thunberg and the members of her freedom flotilla have been blasted by Abba on repeat after radios on board the vessels were hijacked. The Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF), which believes the incident to be the work of an Israeli attack, were subjected to hours of relentless playing of ‘Lay All Your Love On Me’ by the Swedish pop band – in a possible nod to Ms Thunberg’s nationality.

Swedish professional protester Greta Thunberg and supporters now traveling in a 51-vessel convoy to Hamas-terrorist controlled Gaza have a problem. Opponents have hijacked their radios and communications systems to play ABBA on repeat and block out any other comms within the anti-Israel fleet. The Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) alleges the ongoing radio jamming incidents using the mellifluous tones of the legendary Swedish super group to be the work of an Israeli attack. Mamma Mia! Greta’s Gaza Flotilla Flooded with ABBA Music on Repeat as Radios Hijacked 2 BARCELONA, SPAIN - AUGUST 31: Greta Thunberg waves as she greets people while...

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....

YOU HAVE STOLEN HER DREAMS! HOW DARE YOU! 😭 More from The Jerusalem Post: Climate activist Greta Thunberg was removed from the Global Sumud Flotilla's Steering Committee last week, and the mission's spokesperson left the Gaza-bound vessels amid a reorientation of communications priorities. Thunberg, who joined a previous run of the Israeli naval blockade around Gaza in June with the Madleen, appeared on the GSF's website as part of its leadership committee until at least last Sunday. Il Manifesto, which has a correspondent aboard one of the flotilla vessels, reported on Tuesday that Thunberg was seen dragging her suitcase along...

A boat carrying Greta Thunberg towards Gaza has been set ablaze in a suspected drone strike off the coast of North Africa, witnesses have said. The 22-year-old Swedish climate firebrand is part of a controversial convoy of around 350 activists and aid workers, sailing on what they describe as a 'peaceful mission' to deliver supplies to Palestinians in Gaza. But reports have emerged overnight that one of the vessels – the so-called Family Boat, flying under a Portuguese flag and carrying members of the flotilla's Steering Committee, including Greta – was attacked 'by a drone and caught fire' off the...

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...

Gaza aid flotilla organisers say boat carrying Greta Thunberg hit by suspected drone and is on fire Greta Thunberg’s ‘Freedom Flotilla’ claim their ship has been ‘bombed’ and set on ‘fire’ by a drone. “The Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) confirms that one of the main boats, known as the 'Family Boat' - that was carrying GSF Steering Committee members, was struck by what is suspected to be a drone.” Yasemin Acar, one of the activists travelling with Thunberg posted a video saying “The Family boat has been officially attacked a drone came right above it, released a bomb and it...

Greta Thunberg’s aid flotilla was forced to turn back to port after hitting stormy weather just hours into its journey to Gaza, organizers said Monday. The 22-year-old eco warrior was on one of 20 boats that set off for Gaza from Barcelona on Sunday on what they called the “largest solidarity mission” in history — with Israel threatening to arrest her in harsh “terrorist-level” conditions. But storms bringing 35 mph winds soon forced Thunberg and her pals — who also included “Game of Thrones” actor Liam Cunningham — to turn back. “We conducted a sea trial and then returned to...

The country that invented “flight shaming”, a concept championed by climate activist Greta Thunberg, has scrapped its air tax in a bid to boost its ailing economy. As of July 1, Sweden has dropped the levy of 76–517 kroner (£5.50–£37.40) per passenger per flight, an eco measure introduced by the centre-left government in 2018. The U-turn will be seen as a disaster by environmentalists, and it exposes a tension at the core of the aviation versus climate debate. When jumbo jets disappear emissions drop, but other things begin to dwindle too: regional growth, connectivity and – it appears in Sweden...

The Jewish state of Israel has committed yet another genocidal war crime against humanity by sadistically torturing an autistic 22-year-old child aboard an El Al deportation flight on Tuesday. Greta Thunberg, the Swedish climate activist, was "kidnapped" earlier this week after her Gaza-bound resistance yacht was intercepted by Zionist occupational forces. The torture began almost immediately. Thunberg, who suffers from severe mental anguish on account of being passionate about climate change,...
