Thunberg and crew are heroes in my eyes. No doubt a very extreme form of political protest, obviously they knew the outcome here. Even they couldn't predict blatant piracy. Hope she is returned safely...
"The tiny amount of aid that was on the yacht and not consumed by the 'celebrities' will be transferred to Gaza through real humanitarian channels," the ministry added.
They will toss the aid to the wood chipper and laugh about it, won't they...
tiny amount of aid
This is like someone with a micropenis criticizing the genitals of a kitten.
Quite a thing to create the world's most dire need for humanitarian aid in the history of the species and then criticize any aid as tiny in comparison to the need you've manufactured
Isn't boarding and taking over a ship in international waters piracy?
For private citizens yes.
If a nations official forces do it. It is an act of war.
All they had to do was wait until the boat entered Israeli waters to do it legally. Why do it in international waters? Israelis seem to want to break laws just for the sake of showing they dont consider any laws to matter. In some ways they are worse than nazis. They are like perpetually angry butthurt toddlers with weapons.
At no point would the boat enter Israeli waters. Only Palestinian waters.
The illegal Israeli sea blockade is illegal for reason: it is not their water.
there's no "legally" what, they enter Gaza territoral waters, only gaza has authority to regulate it's territorial waters.
Israel has no right to control Gaza's waters.
Why is everyone so hands off and permissive with Israel? Like they can do nothing wrong when they go out of their way to do wrong things?

Good thing Sweden isn't Israel or else they'd have bombed their hospitals already.
