Public opinion on Greta Thunberg's Gaza aid flotilla blocked by Israel is highly polarized. Many praise the activists' courage and humanitarian efforts, viewing them as heroes trying to address a humanitarian crisis where governments have failed. However, a significant portion criticizes the mission as a publicity stunt, questioning its effectiveness and sincerity. There is intense criticism of Israel's blockade, with accusations of inhumane policies and apartheid. The discourse reflects deep divisions and strong emotions surrounding the geopolitical issues of the Israel-Palestine conflict.

The IDF will say that the dock there is safe and then bomb it 3 days later

So now Israel has to defend themselves from a young woman on a small boat?

Speed Bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing.

"Gears up" for fuck sake stop this wartime bombastic language.  They'll send one speedboat and a rug and that's it.

Gretta is making a public stunt and risking her life by going into an active warzone

Just stop her. A new aid distribution system is already underway anyway. No need for your single boat who’s not even gonna feed a house

Malcolm X Was Right.

If Hamas kills her there’s no world where it isn’t blamed on Israel

pachukasunrise

Gaza is not "Israeli territorial waters" and the Israeli navy has no right to interdict ships there. This is piracy.

Ngl flotilla is the dumbest word I've ever heard. If a little girl during wartime said she was gonna come on a flying tortilla to protest I'd think this was a Kurt Vonnegut take on The Little Prince.

This is the best white jews will get from Malcolm X:


When Malcolm X was asked whether the Black Muslims are anti-Semitic, he replied: “Many Jews have guilt feelings when people talk about ‘exploitation.’ This is because they know that they control 90 percent of the businesses in black communities, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. And they benefit more from black buying power than blacks do from other parts of the white community. So they feel guilty about it.” He also complained that Jews can be found on the boards of such organizations as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, but, he continued, “the same Jews won’t let you become president of B’nai B’rith, or any of their other organizations.” Although Malcolm X denied that his organization is anti-Semitic, his comments left many wondering if that is genuinely true.

The IDF has no downsides in just letting this ship dock, letting them unload and give some food to hungry people, and sail away.

So it’s only a matter of time until this ship is blocked and turned away.

Waffles86

Man I’d let it go through right to the welcoming arms of the Gazan people. They’ve been waiting for her.

Great-Draw8416

When I first read the news I thought it was going to be a decent sized ship but the little boat she is on can really only carry a tiny amount of aid that won't make a dent  maybe feed a family for a week at most and there's a very real threat that once they dock in Gaza that they could be taken as hostages. 

This is just a very silly publicity stunt and any sane country would stop Greta and friends from a suicide mission.  Even if you're Pro Palestine I hope you see the stupidity of her stunt and how dangerous it would be for her to step foot in Gaza right now.

Gears up? lol 

It’s a small sailboat with no aid. Let them dock. If Hamas doesn’t kill them fly them home. 

It’s not like they’re carrying actual aid.

TallTacoTuesdayz

Why not just let her go to Gaza? Sure they will make propaganda videos from it, but this is not going to help your cause israel

New_Error2178

What is the actual legal status of this "blockade breaking" and what are the legal and likely options on the table for both sides?

You all have got to stop speaking her death. It’s not just morbid and tasteless, but it’s fucking poor strategy to bury someone before they die, you’re diluting her power and yours.

femoral_contusion

How hard is it for you all to stop playing fascism meteorologists and just say she’s brave and amazing?

I’m proud of the way she’s grown and how she’s used her platform to really speak the truth. She’s an inspirational young leader and I wish her the best of luck on her mission.

Daring_Scout1917

So glad that she’s anti-Israel. Not surprised that she is, given Israel’s actions and eco-fascism, but glad nonetheless

SecretMuffin6289

She’s fucking amazing, what a human being 

But I can’t lie guys, I’m scared for her :(

DireWolfGoT

CrashCulture

She's so brave and I admire her and everyone on that flotilla so much!!

Phloofy_as_phuck

We'll need her voice in the coming decades

sauronsdaddy

Takes some real guts to sail into an ongoing genocide, especially considering the IOF’s history of violence against activists. She’s turning more cameras and eyes to Gaza and that’s what we need.

Designer_Stress_5534

I hope we won't be remembering her by her young face, I really hope.

breadtokimhyunjin

she is genuinely my hero. climate activist vegan anti-capitalist badass. pretty dope

Certain-Belt-1524

Never seen her genuinely smiling, nice to know she has good days

Nouseriously

Hope they make it and can make a difference! 

Are they carrying any aid on the boat?

bspec01

2 drones on them now, either side of the boat!!

Plus there's Liam Cunningham with her, the guy who plays the role of a sailor on GOT popular in Westeros for smuggling food during a war

She always looks like she's having a great time. Even when she's getting hauled off by cops with with a smile but here its even more so. She looks free. I hope she knows that the hopes of millions are with her.

OphidianSun

The best strategy on Israel's part is to escort her and introduce her to a group of locals who say it's all Hamas's fault..

This trip, full of emotion but without support from any country. It will probably be corrupted by Israeli propaganda.

Let's hope this group is smart enough to understand the situation

Paltamachine

I'm afraid of Israel stopping this boat, I confess

seriemaniaca

This is the incredible bravery of an advocate that so much more of the world needs to emulate and learn from. Greta used to make me cringe away back in my liberal days, but this is a legitimately amazing example of how advocates should be, they don’t just attack problems, they call out its imperial roots and confront the problem where it hits the worse.

Great-Sympathy6765

She is amazing. Few people have done as much as her and no matter what happens, she will go down in history as a hero. I desperately hope she makes it through unharmed. 


And to the alarming amount of people who have already written her off as dead or hate on her for one or another reason; she has done more in her life to make the world a better place than entire institutions has, and you ever will. I think it's disgusting how pretentious and self-important some people are whenever they talk about Greta Thunberg. It reeks of misogyny.

There is more humanity in that girl's pinkie than in all of israel.

scaramangaf

Good tides and good fortune to her and everyone else on the boat. I am so grateful they are trying again after the last mission was interrupted. She's one of the best activists I've had the fortune to see in my lifetime, and she has matured into an amazing woman. Also, Liam Cunningham on the boat, yet another W for the Irish. 

This mission is truly putting every country out there (minus Yemen and South Africa) to shame for their complicity. Here's hoping many more boats will launch in their wake.

IS THAT MOTHER FUCKING LUFFY IN THE SIXTH PIC

Alone_Regular_4713

She’s a woman of focus, and sheer fucking will. I don’t know much about her politics other than climate issues and that she’s anti-israel, but this is inspiring none the less. Hell, makes me feel lazy in comparison- I hope this encourages others to act.

Zeekemanifest

This young lady is living her best, most honest and truthful life.

I wish I had the stones to live with a fraction of the courage of her convictions.

Godspeed, Greta.

alkseeghosts

She’s amazing for doing this. I wish she was more anti capitalist but besides that still a great representation.

KwintenDops

What a badass.  They tried to blow her up and it didn’t slow her down a minute.  Guts of steel on that young lady.  

It’s really cool seeing how her activism has grown and evolved.  Looking forward to all her future endeavors.

Tracker at the moment

I don't know how radicalized Greta is but she took the initial liberal promotion to do more with it. Hopefully the food helps thousands of people.

why would anyone complaint about this? she delivering aid!

GianfrancoZoey

If Israel attacks this ship, it's actually over for them. Greta is still mostly a hero for white liberals.

Tyrayentali

I guess the climate change talking points and protest she used to do  ain’t bringing in the views she used have 😅

Zealousideal_Wrap775

I don't understand when we started drooling over her again? At the core she's a pure self-centered eco liberal that jumped on the Palestine wagon due to falling out of the spotlight. I am sorry but no amount of actions would make reconsider my view of her. Action might be good but motives and background are not.

TwoFoldApproach

Sigh... They're going to kill her, aren't they? That's a suicidal mission, best of luck Greta

Is this a sick joke? They are absolute deranged to send children as shield. I hope and pray for the safety of everyone on board and that they can carry out their task

You know it’s apartheid because if a Palestinian was chilling on a boat in the Mediterranean, the Israeli army would shoot them.

October 7th was a terrorist act.  What Isreal is doing is an ongoing state sponsored terrorist act

An aid vessel carrying Greta Thunberg and other activists is attempting to breach Israel's naval blockade of Gaza by delivering humanitarian aid. Israel’s Defense Minister has vowed to prevent the ship from completing its mission, raising tensions.
