The Jewish state of Israel has committed yet another genocidal war crime against humanity by sadistically torturing an autistic 22-year-old child aboard an El Al deportation flight. Greta Thunberg, the Swedish climate activist, was "kidnapped", after her Gaza-bound resistance yacht was intercepted by Zionist occupational forces. The torture began almost immediately.
Thunberg, who suffers from severe mental anguish on account of being passionate about climate change, was ruthlessly taunted by her militant captors. They offered her water in a plastic bottle - a major contributor to ocean pollution and fossil fuel consumption - as well as a shockingly mediocre sandwich that was also wrapped in earth-killing plastic. Academic experts have described this as a form of psychological torture - akin to mock execution - that is arguably more traumatic than waterboarding.
The torture resumed the next morning, after Thunberg allegedly signed a deportation order and was forced aboard a gas-guzzling jumbo jet. Aviation is a significant contributor to global CO2 emissions, and it is unclear if Thunberg was given an opportunity to purchase carbon credits to offset the environmental harm caused by her trip.
After arriving in Paris, she described being "illegally attacked and kidnapped by Israel," and recalled how authorities tried to make her watch a cheap fake propaganda video of the alleged "crimes" committed by Hamas resistance forces during the Oct. 7 liberation campaign. (Greta Thunberg repeatedly claimed that she was kidnapped by Israel - but no ransom was demanded or paid. It was one of the shortest 'kidnappings' in history.)
Another 'Flotilla' Stopped by Libya and Egypt
Activists from 80 countries planned to march to Egypt’s border with Gaza to spotlight the deepening humanitarian crises in Gaza. Organizers said hundreds arriving in Cairo had been detained and deported to their home countries in Europe and North Africa. Meanwhile, an aid convoy traveling overland from Algeria picked up new participants along the route in Tunisia and Libya, but it was stopped in the city of Sirte, about 940 kilometers (585 miles) from the Libya-Egypt border. (This is not reported by 'Israel-loving' news programs. No international condemnation. Egypt detained more than 200 pro-Palestinian activists.)
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered an attack on Iran as it had become clear that Tehran’s nuclear and missile programs are becoming an immediate existential threat to the Jewish state, with the danger so urgent he was prepared to launch the strikes even without US support. “If we don’t attack, then it’s 100% that we will die,” he argued in a statement to the nation, hours after Israel launched attacks on the Iran’s nuclear and military structure.

Food for Thought: by Steven Shamrak
Why don’t Europeans and the ‘Ugly Nazi’ demand that Egypt open its border and let civilians of Gaza leave the war zone? They can easily resettle in 22 Arab countries (their size is 644 time greater than Israel). This would be a very humanitarian effort!
Zionism is the Jewish National Independence Movement
Eight humanitarian workers were brutally murdered while providing food to Gazan civilians; o the sound of crickets. A world that could not contain its fury at the accidental killing of aid workers in Gaza last year suddenly does not care about the deliberate murder of aid workers from the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation in 2025. Only Israel can be criticized.
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich signed a bill authorizing the transfer of 91 million shekels from the frozen Palestinian Authority funds in Israel to the families of terror victims. The funds are channelled directly to bereaved families and terror victims eligible to collect after a legal ruling, as well as to Israeli entities that bear the burden of debts - primarily the Electric Corporation, which provided services to the PA but did not receive full payment. (Should have been done years ago.)
The International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA, passed a resolution declaring that Iran is in noncompliance with its nuclear safeguards obligations, further ratcheting up pressure on the Islamic Republic over its controversial program amid strained negotiations with the US and concerns Israel may strike its facilities. Iran reacted immediately, saying it will establish a new enrichment facility and scale up uranium enrichment after the vote against it. The announcement said the facility will be “in a secure location”. (No time to waste any more!)
The US is not Longer Pursuing Independent Palestine
Mike Huckabee, the US ambassador to Israel, has said that the US is no longer pursuing the goal of an independent Palestinian state. He suggested that any future Palestinian entity could be carved out of “a Muslim country” rather than requiring Israel to cede territory. “Unless there are some significant things that happen that change the culture, there’s no room for it,” Huckabee said. Those probably won’t happen “in our lifetime”.
With the Friends Like this who Need Anti-Semites
Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Norway and the UK are imposing sanctions on Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir for allegedly “inciting violence” against Palestinians in Judea and Samaria. The countries are moving to freeze the ministers’ assets, and they will face travel bans. Smotrich and Ben-Gvir do not have assets in any of the five countries. “It is outrageous that elected representatives and members of the government are subjected to these kinds of measures,” Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar stated. The US Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemns sanctions against Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich by five Western countries.
Hamas has killed 50 Palestinian fighters armed by Israel in Gaza in recent months. Militia led by Yasser abu Shabab says Israeli troops stepped in to defend the militia gang backed by its forces. Abu Shabab has been nicknamed “the Israeli agent” and described as a traitor on social media in Gaza. His Israeli-armed gang now consists of more than 100 men who operate in eastern Rafah.
Yasser Abu Shabab issued a call to recruit Gazan volunteers with diverse skills to fill civilian administrative roles. Volunteers will participate in “establishing administrative and community committees in eastern Rafah” to assist in managing the area and restoring civilian life.
Recognition of ‘Palestine’ Postponed
Plans for the United Kingdom and France to recognize a Palestinian state at a United Nations conference in New York, scheduled for June 17-20, have been abandoned. French President Emmanuel Macron had publicly framed recognition of “Palestine” as “a moral duty and political requirement.” Instead, Macron, in an apparent U-turn, sets conditions for Palestinian statehood and steps towards a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, the release of Israeli hostages, comprehensive reform of the Palestinian Authority, economic reconstruction, and the cessation of Hamas rule in Gaza.
Quotes of the Week:
“The time has come for the Iranian people to unite around its flag and its historic legacy, by standing up for your freedom from the evil and oppressive regime. The Islamic regime, which has oppressed you for almost 50 years, threatens to destroy our country. The objective of Israel’s operation is to thwart the Islamic regime’s nuclear and ballistic missile threat to us. As we achieve our objective, we are also clearing the path for you to achieve your freedom. This is your opportunity to stand up and let your voices be heard.” - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, message to Iranian people.
Debunking Settler Violence Narrative
by David Isaac
The “settler violence” campaign, which claims that violence against Arabs by Jewish “settlers” spiked post-Oct. 7, 2023, is based on fraudulent numbers. The campaign’s goal is to defame not merely the Jewish communities of Judea and Samaria, but the Israeli army and by extension the entire State of Israel.
The 125-page report, “False Flags and Real Agendas,” produced by Israeli NGO Regavim, describes the “settler violence” smear as a “modern-day blood libel.”
A flurry of news items appeared in the liberal mainstream press in the United States and elsewhere about escalating “settler violence” in Judea and Samaria.
The campaign received a “shot of steroids” after the Oct. 7 attack because those promoting a Palestinian state felt the need to create moral equivalence between “Hamas and settlers,” Naomi Kahn, director of the International Division at Regavim, said. “More than delegitimizing the Jewish presence there, it’s about delegitimizing the moral standing of the IDF. It’s portrayed as the army that allows this immorality to happen. By attacking the army of the Jewish state, you attack the entire Jewish state.”
While Regavim stressed that Jewish violence does exist, and should be punished when it occurs, but the numbers are so small as to be negligible.
“If you’re an American living in a city with a population comparable to that of Area C (the Israeli-controlled part of Judea and Samaria), you’re (as a Jew) more than 300 times likely to be the victim of violent crime than if you are an Arab living in Area C,” she said.
