Israel Shares Pic of Greta Smiling & Being Handed Sandwich Amid Kidnapping Claims
In a bizarre turn of events, the Israel Foreign Ministry has shared a picture of activist Greta Thunberg smiling and being handed a sandwich, claiming she is “safe and in good spirits” and on her way to Israel. This development comes amidst claims made by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, a pro-Palestinian organization, that Greta and the crew of their charity ship have been “kidnapped” by Israeli forces.
The photograph, shared by the Israel Foreign Ministry on Twitter, shows Greta with a warm smile on her face as she is handed a sandwich by an Israeli official. The caption reads, “Safe and in good spirits: Greta Thunberg arrives in Israel.” The tweet also includes a statement from the Israeli government, assuring the public that Greta is “free to move around” and will be “treated with respect” during her visit.
However, this narrative has been disputed by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, who claim that Greta and the crew of their ship, the Al-Aqsa, have been taken into custody by Israeli forces. According to the coalition, Greta was on board the ship as part of a humanitarian mission to deliver aid to the Gaza Strip, a territory controlled by the Palestinian Authority.
In a pre-recorded video shared by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, Greta can be seen speaking out against the Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip and calling for action to be taken to end the “humanitarian crisis” in the region. The video also features footage of the ship being boarded by Israeli naval forces, who are seen detaining the crew and passengers.
The Freedom Flotilla Coalition has accused the Israeli government of kidnapping Greta and the crew of the Al-Aqsa, and has called for international action to be taken to secure their release. The organization has also expressed concern for the safety and well-being of Greta, who is being held in an Israeli detention center.
Greta’s presence on the Al-Aqsa was a major coup for the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, who have been criticized in the past for their alleged support of terrorist organizations. The coalition has denied these allegations, and has instead emphasized the humanitarian nature of their mission.
The controversy surrounding Greta’s visit to Israel has sparked widespread debate and discussion on social media, with many expressing concern for her safety and well-being. Others have criticized the Israeli government for its actions, accusing them of using Greta as a pawn in their political games.
In a statement released by the Israeli government, officials claimed that Greta was never on board the Al-Aqsa, and that she was instead invited to Israel as part of a separate humanitarian mission. The statement also emphasized that Greta is “free to move around” and will be “treated with respect” during her visit.
Despite these claims, many have expressed skepticism about the Israeli government’s account of events. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition has released footage of Greta on board the Al-Aqsa, which appears to contradict the Israeli government’s version of events.
As the situation continues to unfold, many are left wondering what will happen to Greta and the crew of the Al-Aqsa. Will they be released, or will they face further detention? Only time will tell.
