    Let’s be real; everyone on board knew there was no chance the ship would be allowed to moor and offload its goods. It was a photo op. But still a good one since it helps show what Israel is doing in Gaza. They also knew there was very little chance of them actually getting hurt as Israel does care about optics when it involves high profile foreigners. The second they kill someone like Greta all hell would break loose. Which is in sad, stark contrast to the thousands of innocents they’ve killed with nary a peep from the rest of the world.

      I also don’t think we should avoid acting because our enemies might retaliate.

      That’s bitchmade behavior and anyone who supports it needs to be shunned.

      I think greta is kind of a cunt. But shes a cunt we need to stick it to everyone on a global scale. We all know who she is, we all know shes harmless, a lot dont like her, but most will say she is right on her few issues.

        You’re likely picking up on her autism. Most aspies put on a (mental) mask to interact with others. For most it’s intended to be inoffensive and keep you in the background. Greta’s is focused on her goal. She would likely prefer you hated her, but knew about her causes, than be likeable, but forgettable.

        As for harmless, that’s part of the image. She’s as harmless as a friendly bull. It will happily get scratches behind the ears, but still walk straight through the wooden fence to let the cows roam free.
