    Probably because they dont want to turn her into a martyr...

    Alternatively its because killing a white western girl with a recognisable name is more difficult to justify over here and they are VERY aware of this

    I truly believe that they were ready to murder her before they saw the reaction she was getting and realized it would have backfired tremendously.

      EDIT: Kidnapping. The word you're ignoring in the title is kidnapping.

        Adalah, an Israel-based non-governmental legal organization that is representing some of the activists, said that those who remain are being held in Givon Prison in Ramleh, central Israel.

        So grab the passengers of a boat in international wares and jail them in Israel. 😒

        In a statement to CNN, Israel said that it “is preventing the entry of all vessels into the Gaza Strip, in accordance with international law.”

        Is there a charitable interpretation that could make this statement true?

        They were running a blockade. Being arrested was the point.

            Since Gaza is an open air prison under the control of Israel and not recognized as an independent state we can blockade it all we want.

            Best I got.

            Really hard to justify genocide.

                        The ship was nowhere near Gaza. They were off the coast of Egypt in International waters. Israel just kidnapped a bunch of people. Also they only released Greta? What about the other people?

                          Another reason would probably be she's too old for IDF scumbags, murdering any child above 12 yo doesn't do it for them.

                              Palestine is not a recognized country in most of the western world, which in itself is a travesty, but you can probably infer a lot of bs from that.

                              Like claiming a certain religious group has no human rights bc they're not recognized as humans.

                                  She already said that she'd do just that. Let's see how fast they'll let her leave next time. If at all.

                                    That's not even true.

                                    As of March 2025, the State of Palestine is recognized as a sovereign state by 147 of the 193 member states of the United Nations, or just over 75% of all UN members. It has been a non-member observer state of the United Nations General Assembly since November 2012.

                                    75% of the world recognizes Palestine as a sovereign state.

                                      To be fair, they specified “western world”. If you look at the map of countries that recognize Palestine, it’s pretty glaring that a good chunk of Europe, Canada/US, and Australia/NZ don’t officially recognize it.

                                        The others refused to be sent back to France, as they would have to agree to be permanently banned from Israel.
