Israeli authorities screened footage of Hamas’s October 7 atrocities to Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg and other pro-Palestinian flotilla participants upon their arrival in Ashdod on Monday, shortly after the IDF intercepted their ship, the Madleen, in international waters.
According to Defense Minister Israel Katz, the activists refused to continue watching the film after seeing the brutality of the attacks.
"These antisemitic flotilla activists closed their eyes to the truth and once again proved they prefer the murderers over the victims,” Katz said. “They continue to ignore the atrocities committed by Hamas against Jewish and Israeli women, the elderly, and children.”
The activists were given the option to sign a voluntary departure form or face arrest after 96 hours. Among those refusing to leave is French MEP Rima Hassan.
Hassan has previously drawn wide criticism for her denial that the Bibas family, excluding Yarden Bibas, were murdered, her claim that the October 7 massacre was “legitimate” and her insistence that Palestinians in Europe should be allowed to join the “resistance.”
Peaceful protestor held at gunpoint refuses to watch violent propaganda.
As such, branded as hypocrite.
Modern politics.
Delivering baby formula to certain people seen specifically as a form of protest by all media.
Modern politics.
Is no one going to say or do anything about the fact that Israel illegally “intercepted” another ship in international waters?
Also arrested for what? They weren’t even under Israeli jurisdiction when picked up.
They refused to watch a propaganda video 🙄
This is quite literally the plot to A Clockwork Orange.
At leat in A Clockwork Orange the point of the footage wasn’t to try to persuade them that violence is good.
There’s no footage from October 7th that comes close to what happens in Gaza every fucking day.
The IOF and the apartheid officials need to be forced to watch every hour recorded of Palestine’s suffering.
Fair’s fair.

Isreal knew Oct 7 was coming.
Source: I know this sounds crazy but trust me
Well, those Gaza children shouldn’t have committed those atrocities.
Maybe next time they’ll pick a better region to be born in
“Yeah, I agree, that is horrible. I am literally just trying to keep more innocent people from suffering and dying…”
This unlawful attempt at forced brainwashing is truly scandalous and absolutely intolerable with its repugnant double standards.
No one disputes that the terrorist attack by Hamas was brutal.
Nevertheless, this by no means justifies the genocide being committed by Israel. There are also horrific images of this, of starving children, cold blooded murder of civilians and unbearable suffering - and Israel is even using every means at its disposal to prevent the world from seeing the full extent of their own atrocities.
If Israel were to adhere even remotely to international law and human rights, Thunberg would not be there.
It is absurd that this country continues to portray itself as the victim. They are the perpetrators and responsible for crimes against humanity.
These savages who represent Israel are truly the scum of the earth.
Hamas wanted hostages, not bodies.
Don’t give an inch. The brutality came from the Israeli side. They fired on their own people to stop them from being taken hostage.
No one disputes that the terrorist attack by Hamas was brutal.
Lol what. > 33% active duty IDF soldiers killed. Almost no children.

You would have said the same thing about the ANC fighting against apartheid.

wouldn’t the footage be of defenders coming in to boot out the invading zionists?
Are the Jewish nazis trying to guilt trip them into helping their genocide? Before you even say anything what’s the difference between a free range cage and a cage? The comfort level of the animal. A lot easier to gun down when you say it’s safe here
what’s the difference between a free range cage and a cage? The comfort level of the animal.
I think you are making a rhetorical point unrelated to animal welfare, but in point of fact, “free range” hens do not enjoy a meaningfully greater level of comfort. The only way to reduce these suffering of exploited vulnerable individuals is not to pay for their exploitation in the first place.
You and I both know it’s the marketing of the comfort level of the chicken but there is no such thing in reality under industrialism. Nobody is under a rock here.
Most people live in Plato’s Cave and their entire reality is constructed by marketing.
You guys don’t like the flavor of suffering in your eggs?
Allegory of the cave is not based in marketing. Capitalism drives our reality more than marketing. The real mental illness is our modern day economy.
Correct, but marketing (really, propaganda) is part of how capitalism reproduces itself.
Remember, kids, nothing Israel has done justifies October 7th, but also, October 7th justifies everything Israel is doing.
“Hostage refuses to be psychologically tortured by war criminals”
According to Defense Minister Israel Katz, the activists refused to continue watching the film after seeing the brutality of the attacks.
So this headline is probably a lie.
😂
So Israel is doing the „But they are doing it too!” thing
Are we in kindergarten or what?
