It was bad enough they were kidnapped, did they also have to send them to France

Guys don't forget about the other kidnapped activists

8 are still being held. I'm most worried about Rima Hassan as she's a Palestinian and still being held.

Aljazeera using the correct word to describe what Isreal did.

Sadly they did not. Current headline says “Greta Thunberg arrives in Paris after deportation from Israel”

[–] FreeWilliam@lemmy.ml 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yep, the title is my summary

[–] UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Al least Greta states it the way your title was edited.

Qatar got some big military contracts from Israel recently they have to tone down their rhetoric a bit.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Not sure if deportation is even the correct word as she was kidnapped and then transferred against her will. The correct term might be 'forcibly displaces'.

Kidnapped from the boat. Then forcibly displaced to another country.

[–] rumimevlevi@lemmings.world 5 points 1 day ago

Yes deportation imply that she entered israel illegally which is not true

Now it's justified to bomb Israel until they release the hostages right?

i wonder wtf france has to do with it, and what crime did she commit to be brought over in handcuffs

[–] PoopingCough@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm not positive, but i believe the majority of their support team was in Paris so I'd guess that's why. Apparently they were given a choice between deportation and a trial and some of them basically had to be convinced to choose deportation so they could speak about their experiences.

How tf do you deport someone from international waters

[–] PoopingCough@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Well they took them to Israel first but yea i agree

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 37 points 1 day ago

Deporting somebody you kidnapped in international waters from a country they did not go to or want to be in.

[–] Goretantath@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Oh wow, the ACTUAL news title people should be using!

[–] bus_factor@lemmy.world 3 points 20 hours ago

Isn't it more human trafficking than deportation if they kidnapped her in international waters and moved her to a different country?

[–] FreeWilliam@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Yeah lol I got flamed for using the actual article's headline last time Never doing the mistake of spreading the "unbiased" propaganda headline again

[–] Hawke@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It’s a tough balance… tough to show the reality but also show how the perception is being manipulated in reporting.

[–] FreeWilliam@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago

True, very true

In the interview, she is asked about the other crew members. She states that she hasn't been able to get into contact as they were put into individual cells, and the crew wasn't given the proper freedom to fully communicate with lawyers. This is not over. They merely release Greta first because she has a platform. She speaks into further detail about this in the interview, so I highly advise you watch it.
