A drone strike hit a Gaza-bound activist ship in international waters, sparking global controversy. Climate activist Greta Thunberg blamed Israel for the attack despite never boarding the vessel. The incident reveals troubling alliances between radical activists and anti-Israel groups.
Thunberg joined the Freedom Flotilla Coalition’s latest stunt to break Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza. She recorded a video wearing a pro-Palestinian scarf, claiming Israel “disrespects human rights.” Her dramatic accusations ignored Hamas’s terrorist rule over Gaza and Israel’s legitimate security needs.
The activists claimed 30 people were aboard when drones struck the ship. Malta’s government confirmed only 16 crew members and four civilians faced danger—with zero casualties. Overblown claims of a “sinking ship” collapsed under basic fact-checking.
Israel wisely refused to engage with baseless allegations. The Jewish state has every right to intercept vessels that could smuggle weapons to Hamas terrorists. Previous flotillas carried militants linked to Iran-backed extremists—not “humanitarian aid.”
Thunberg’s pivot from climate sermons to anti-Israel activism exposes her true agenda. She’s become a pawn for groups seeking to demonize the Middle East’s only democracy. Real humanitarian efforts don’t involve propaganda scarves and staged photo-ops.
This flotilla fiasco follows a pattern of left-wing celebrities amplifying Hamas talking points. While Israel fights for survival against Iranian proxies, wealthy Westerners lecture about “oppression” from luxury yachts. Hardworking Americans see through the hypocrisy.
The Biden administration’s silence on this incident speaks volumes. Conservative leaders understand: Standing with Israel means rejecting performative activism that endangers innocent lives. Our ally deserves support against those who want it wiped off the map.
Patriots know truth matters. This attack wasn’t on “humanitarianism”—it was a necessary defense against another hostile provocation. While activists play games, Israel remains on the frontlines protecting civilization from terror. That’s a fact no viral video can change.
