Environmental activist Greta Thunberg’s boat en route to Gaza has been seized by Israeli authorities.
Thunberg, who is infamously known by her “how dare you speech, has now transitioned to be an advocate for Palestinians in Gaza.

On June 9th, Israeli authorities announced they had captured Thunberg’s “selfie yacht” that aimed to deliver supplies to Palestinians in Gaza.
USA Today had more on the story:
Israeli forces have taken command of a charity vessel that had tried to break a naval blockade of the Gaza Strip, and the boat with its crew of 12, including activist Greta Thunberg, was headed to a port in Israel, officials said.
ADVERTISEMENTThe British-flagged yacht Madleen, which is operated by the pro-Palestinian Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC), aimed to deliver a symbolic amount of aid to Gaza June 9 and raise international awareness of the humanitarian crisis there.
But the boat was boarded the night before it could reach shore, the FFC said on its Telegram account. The Israeli Foreign Ministry later confirmed that the vessel was under Israeli control.
“The ‘selfie yacht’ of the ‘celebrities’ is safely making its way to the shores of Israel. The passengers are expected to return to their home countries,” the ministry posted on X.
All passengers were safe and unharmed, the ministry later added. “They were provided with sandwiches and water. The show is over.”
Among the 12-strong crew are Swedish climate campaigner Thunberg and Rima Hassan, a French member of the European Parliament.
Here are videos of Thunberg as Israeli officials took over her boat:
After being stopped by the Israeli Navy, IDF special forces soldiers handed out food and water to the brain dead morons from Europe on the boat including Greta Thunberg. I bet they didnt expect to be treated so well. Look how confused they seem

Greta Thunberg, wrapped in a keffiyeh and boarding a boat to Gaza, is the perfect final form of the climate grift.
From skipping school for the planet to geopolitical cosplay — turns out it was never about the CO₂, just the clout.

Greta Thunberg and a handful of other privileged activists are sailing to Gaza on a tiny boat to “deliver aid.”
At best, they’ve got enough supplies for maybe a dozen people. It’s not humanitarian—it’s the most pathetic, performative stunt imaginable.pic.twitter.com/D7fWeIcR9K

As a punishment, Thunberg and other passengers on the Flotilla will reportedly be forced to watch videos of the October 7th massacre.
Per The New York Post:
“I congratulate the IDF for the quick and safe takeover of the ‘Madleen’ flotilla to prevent them from breaking the blockade and reaching the shores of Gaza,” Israel’s defense minister, Israel Katz, said on X.
“I instructed the IDF to show the flotilla passengers the video of the horrors of the October 7 massacre when they arrive at the port of Ashdod,” he wrote.
ADVERTISEMENT“It is appropriate that the anti-Semitic Greta and her fellow Hamas supporters see exactly who the Hamas terrorist organization they came to support and for whom they work is, what atrocities they committed against women, the elderly, and children, and against whom Israel is fighting to defend itself,” he explained.
It comes after Thunberg had claimed that she and her crew had been “kidnapped” in international waters by Israeli forces after they had set off to try to deliver aid to Gaza later Monday.
