Do it, the world is watching, and will NEVER forgive you. Greta is braver than the entire IDF put together and all of us know that no matter what cowardly acts of terror the IDF brandishes.
If Israel hurts Greta they will lock their pariah state status in for decades.
Checkmate Israel.
That's the idea of the flotilla, I think.
I also think bibi doesn't give a fuck, and that ship is likely toast, and there likely won't be consequences for decades (if ever).
There will be IMMEDIATE consequences, you are waayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy off the mark here.
The entire world is watching.
... including military assets we have no idea about, any move now all world leaders will take note of.
The entire world has been watching the genocide in Gaza, and the unprovoked attacks on Syria, and the reckless violence which has killed so many foreign nationals, reporters, and aid workers, and what consequences to speak of yet? What evidence supports your position?
I know, I understand that perspective and feel similarly a lot of the time but I see cracks now, I see them everywhere.
The most easiest piece of evidence is that Piers Morgan admitted to Mehdi Hasan on live tv that he was wrong about Gaza and that what Israel is doing is abhorrent. This is a MASSIVE shift for a VERY prominent UK news anchor that had pretty embarassingly been running interference for the Palestinian Genocide in UK media to keep the public there from turning against this awful destruction of humanity.
It is too late, nonetheless but I will take my victory with a fervor that is meant to honor the fact that it is already too late for so many.
Morgan then said to the doctor who have 9 of his children killed do you blame hamas
You are very optimiatic. You will just here strong empty condemnation. The houthi may be the only one who will reply with actions
Earth, I will tell you how I know that, the reason Greta is doing this is because Greta is angry as I am about my home.
no, why would they have weapons onboard?
they aren't stupid
I mean, hear me out *if I was a submarine captain
Israel is getting desperate, this moment will go down in history.
and now the world has bore witness one final time to the cruelty of the US and Israel.
We are considered rogue states now because we are.
They killed killed in 2010. Last time she was attacked by drones.
I think israel will escape accountability just like always unfortunatly. The flotilla should have been assisted by soldiers of the activists country
The leadership will face accountability eventually. It takes time but justice will catch up with them eventually.
The problem is that the delay will likely mean that the death toll will be even more massive than what it already is.
Also, she is starting to look kinda hot.
Courage, selflessness, and determination are attractive qualities. But you said she's looking hot. Kinda gross man.
It's all part of being human. No need to try and shame me for a bit of self expression.
No need to make the comment you made either. I don't see any other comments regarding Greta's looks, so no, it's not "all part of being human". Something like knowing when and when not (if at all) to say certain things is definitely part of being human though. For example, if someone says something that is undeniably gross, the perfect time to call them out on it would be as soon as you possibly can.
Side note: You're taking the phrase "self expression" wayyyy too literal
All I am saying is relax a bit and don't be so quick to judge. All I have said is that I thought she could be seen as attractive.
I have not said that this is the only attribute she posesses, I have not said that this is what she should be known for.
I think what I've actually done here is be a little lighthearted in a space where it wasn't welcome and now you're piling on.
You clearly misread the room, the smart thing to do would be to come off it, but you don't appear to be very smart
The mental gymnastics scores are in and it's a perfect 10/10 across the board!!
You know you don't have to personally attack people, but I'm sure you find it fun.
ok?
