Israeli authorities screened footage of Hamas's October 7 atrocities to Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg and other pro-Palestinian flotilla participants upon their arrival in Ashdod on Monday, shortly after the IDF intercepted their ship, the Madleen, in international waters.
According to Defense Minister Israel Katz, the activists refused to continue watching the film after seeing the brutality of the attacks.
"These antisemitic flotilla activists closed their eyes to the truth and once again proved they prefer the murderers over the victims,” Katz said. “They continue to ignore the atrocities committed by Hamas against Jewish and Israeli women, the elderly, and children.”
The activists were given the option to sign a voluntary departure form or face arrest after 96 hours. Among those refusing to leave is French MEP Rima Hassan.
Hassan has previously drawn wide criticism for her denial that the Bibas family, excluding Yarden Bibas, were murdered, her claim that the October 7 massacre was "legitimate" and her insistence that Palestinians in Europe should be allowed to join the "resistance."
Which halfway credible evidence do they have? They have none. The blockade is illegal so intercepting it is illegal too
Their twisted argument is that the terrorists live among the people therefore any action against the terrorists also harms the people, and any effort to aid the people aids the terrorists. So aid = terrorism.
Tou said it it's a twisted argument. Nobody believe it so international law apply here
international law doesn't meaningfully exist
whoever has the highest capacity for violence gets what they want, same as it ever was
"israel" is an outpost of the US, so it can do what it likes because no one with bigger guns will oppose them
I know that bur it still impoetant for people to know that everything israel does is agsinst all laws and moral
And international law says they can sieze the boat.
No, it doesn't say that
No. It doesn't
That's not an argument compatible with international law though, which was your original claim.
