US Senator Lindsay Graham has just tweeted an article titled “Greta Thunberg sets sail with Gaza flotilla that aims to break Israeli naval blockade,” adding the comment, “Hope Greta and her friends can swim!”

Australian Zionist think tanker Arsen Ostrovsky somehow outdid Graham, tweeting “Oh look, the little jihadi Greta Thunberg is trying to get into Gaza, to show solidarity with Hamas. It would be so sad if something were to happen to her flotilla…”

There’s not a lot that can shock me about Israel and its supporters these days. But if you’d traveled back in time a few years ago it would be hard to explain to someone how we got to a timeline that includes Israel supporters openly advocating the assassination of Greta Thunberg.

    Russia is abducting Ukrainian children

    Imagine pretending that evacuating children from a war zone is ‘abduction’.

    Also, there’s the constant bombardment of residential areas

    That’s literally what NATO and Ukraine have been doing, in addition to other attacks against civilians and other war crimes. In addition, you are fine with Ukraine invading both Iraq and Syria.

    They’ve also been cutting off the civilian population from electricity, water, heating, communications etc.

    Literally done by Ukraine against Crimea.

    The opinion pieces I provide are from include ones from actual lawyers and scholars

    They can and often do have rather silly opinions. Look at Lemkin.

      “Imagine pretending that evacuating children from a war zone is ‘abduction’.”

      Why aren’t they returning these children to their families?

      “That’s literally what Ukraine have been doing”

      “In addition, you are fine with Ukraine invading both Iraq and Syria.”

      I must have missed the fanfiction in which Ukraine did that.

      “Literally done by Ukraine against Crimea.”

      “They can and often do have rather silly opinions.”

      Still more trustworthy than an online weirdo defending a fascist regime.

        Don’t have the time to respond in full currently, but

        Why aren’t they returning these children to their families?

        They literally are.

        Still more trustworthy than an online weirdo defending a fascist regime.

        I can grant you that - they are more trustworthy than you, a weirdo who is defending a genocidally racist fascist regime.
