Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel’s national security minister, is planning to present Benjamin Netanyahu with a plan to detain the activists in harsh “terrorist-level” conditions in the Ktzi’ot and Damon detention centres for females, according to Israel Hayom, one of Israel’s biggest newspapers…

Israel Hayom quoted individuals close to Mr Ben-Gvir saying: “Following several weeks at Ktzi’ot and Damon, they’ll be sorry about the time they arrived here. We must eliminate their appetite for another attempt.”

    Ah yes, because as everyone knows the best way to stop determined activists from talking about your human rights abuses is to show them first hand your human rights abuses. I’m sure they’ll just shut up after that.

    So Israel is now announcing its intent to torture EU citizens?

    What comes next, invading Cyprus?

    There is something particularly disgusting about how right-wing talking heads have latched onto this fantasy of punishing Greta Thunberg, for many years now.

    Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel’s national security minister, is planning to present Benjamin Netanyahu with a plan to detain the activists in harsh “terrorist-level” conditions in the Ktzi’ot and Damon detention centres for females, according to Israel Hayom, one of Israel’s biggest newspapers.

    “Following several weeks at Ktzi’ot and Damon, they’ll be sorry about the time they arrived here. We must eliminate their appetite for another attempt.”

    What is wrong with these people? You can literally hear the quickening of their breath when they voice their torture fantasies like that.

    The activists were also offered the chance to watch footage of Hamas atrocities from Oct 7, which they refused, according to Israel Katz, Israel’s defence minister.

    I heard this one before. Like it was some sort of gotcha. Like anybody even claimed that Hamas killing people is OK.

    Fucking perverts.

        I’m saying…. The act would make here even more committed. The opposite of what Israel would hope for. I’m not saying she’s not very committed. It’s not a criticism of Greta, calm down ASPD

          I know you’re not criticizing her; I meant more in the sense that turning committed+ into committed++ wouldn’t have much practical effect in Greta’s case. Id wager that most of what she can realistically do she’s already doing.

            No, actually, she could become pro-Hamas.

            There are levels of commitment beyond where she’s at. This isn’t even her final form.

      Great, because her commitment so far has been kinda “meh” 🫳

      🙃

      Edit: I guess the “🙃” isn’t clear enough so: /s

        The irony is pretty clear - unlike the minds of that sort of commenter who’s downvoting finger is a lot (~several weeks) faster than their sarcasm detector. I feel free to say nasty things about rhese spoilsports in this place because I am pretty sure they never made it past the first sentence.

      My guess is that these extreme right-wing politicians have their fan base in Israel who will clap (and enjoy the righteous feeling of punishing a woman who deserves it stirring their loins). And that’s who the speeches are for.

      And maybe they haven’t realized that the whole world is listening to their disgusting display of savagery now.

      For the sake of Palestinians I hope they figure it out soon, although it would be nice to see them walk deeper into the trap they set for themselves.

      [ I got distracted. This was supposed to be a direct reply to your statement - now it’s indirect. ]

    Eliminate her appetite for another attempt just means they fully intend on letting her go.
