🇵🇸 How Greta Thunberg Was Canceled for Opposing Israel | Mint Press
Once the favored child of the establishment, #GretaThunberg has been dropped by the global elite.
A MintPress News study finds that coverage of Thunberg in The New York Times and Washington Post has dwindled from hundreds of articles per year to barely a handful, precisely as she widens her focus from the environment to the capitalist system that is causing climate breakdown, and the Israeli attack on #Gaza, which the Swedish #activist has labeled a “#genocide.”

🇵🇸Catania, Sicily, Italy- The #FreedomFlotilla Coalition (#FFC) confirms that its civilian ship, #Madleen, carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza, has been attacked/forcibly intercepted by the Israeli military at 3:02 am CET in international waters at 31.95236° N, 32.38880° E.
The ship was unlawfully boarded, its unarmed civilian crew abducted, and its life-saving cargo
-including baby formula, food and medical supplies confiscated.
"Israel has no legal authority to detain international volunteers aboard the Madleen," said Huwaida Arraf, human rights attorney and Freedom Flotilla organizer.
"This seizure blatantly violates international law and defies the ICJ's binding orders requiring unimpeded humanitarian access to Gaza. These volunteers are not subject to Israeli jurisdiction and cannot be criminalized for delivering aid or challenging an illegal blockade-their detention is arbitrary, unlawful, and must end immediately."

Our 'Madleen' was on a mission of urgency after a year of set backs, carrying baby formula, food, medicine, and basic humanity. Then came unidentified vessels, speedboats, quadcopters, and finally, Israeli soldiers. Francesca Albanese recounts what happened in real-time as she spoke to the crew live. She reminds us that 'Madleen' was a UK-flagged boat seized in international waters. Israel's interception is an act of piracy. Abduction is illegal, as is their siege, genocide, occupation and countless other war crimes across Palestine. So what makes a small, aid boat so scary for the Israeli occupation? According to Francesca Albanese: it is our humanity. It is everyone's defiance. It is our collective power to break the siege.
