Greta Thunberg And the Traveling Circus

By Rich Kozlovich

On June 9th Andrea Widburg, who accurately described Greta Thunberg as an "angry little troll", posted this piece at American Thinker, Israel has a fitting punishment for Greta Thunberg and her fellow ‘Hamactivists', saying:

My favorite Gilbert & Sullivan operetta is The Mikado.* One of the great songs sees the Emperor of Japan sing that his “object all sublime” is to make “the punishment fit the crime.”........I read what Israel intends to do to Greta Thunberg for invading its sovereign territory with her showboating plan to bring a few pounds of flour to the Gazans (who are not starving)........

In theory, Israel can try to imprison Thunberg and her merry band for violating its territorial waters. However, Israel has a more appropriate plan, and one that fits the crime. It’s going to educate Thunberg, who lives in a leftist bubble, about what happened on October 7....... Greta Thunberg and her posse of international activists will be forced to watch footage of the Oct. 7 terror attack after Israeli forces intercepted their Gaza-bound “selfie yacht,” Israel’s defense minister revealed Monday.

Nor will Thunberg be shown an edited version that cleans up the gore and leaves out the videos of Gazans exulting in the slaughter. Instead, she’ll see the raw footage:

Not only do they need to show the film in its raw form, they need to film the "punishment" and do it close up for each and every one of these people in order to see their reactions, and to show if they're refusing to watch the film.  

The fact is they need to release the film in order for the world to see the horrors perpetrated by Hamas on October 7, 2024.... and they need to do it regularly.  As for Greta, the more you dig into her nitwittery the worse it gets, and it’s clear she’s mentally challenged. 

Other than her much publicized stand of the fraud of global warming, in my Greta Thunberg file I show that she's against growing enough food to feed the world, she's against sufficient energy production needed for advanced societies to function, and any who don't agree with here are all racists.  And now she's an open antisemite and supporter of Muslim violence, torture, and destruction of western civilization. 

In my September 2, 2022 article, The Thunberg Syndrome, I state:

A syndrome is defined as:  a characteristic combination of opinions, emotions, or behavior.  And that's what we are seeing with all those who are in the Church of the Warming Globe, including, and maybe especially Greta Thunberg.   I really hate to pick on a kid, but Greta Thunberg and her parents have put her on the world’s stage, and in a situation that makes her subject to serious criticism. ......She's just 16, refuses to go to school, claims her Asperger's is a "superpower", and is ascribed such mystical powers that her mother even claims "she can see carbon dioxide with the naked eye ... how it flows out of chimneys".

Well, her parents certainly failed this silly child with her cultish worship of Mother Earth and the State.  This isn't about climate or the environment.  This is about imposing a worldwide system of leftist control over humanity.  Her position on climate?  "Climate... is a crisis of human rights, justice, political will. Colonial, racist, and patriarchal systems of oppression created, fueled it."

Now ask yourself, does that sound like a scientific analysis of climate or leftist rhetoric for destroying capitalism?  This was from a child who is incapable of speaking without a script or discussing any science behind her views.  

What we have here is an ignorant spoiled brat with emotional problems (more here regarding those problems) who has been turned into spokesperson for the worldwide “Warmists” movement!  As this piece points out:  I’m sure she’s been a puppet for someone since the day she came on the scene with her ‘how dare you’ blather to the world on Climate Change. Essentially she’s just a ‘Climate Change actress’ because I’m sure she’s getting paid well for her ‘activism’....... 

In her case,  I wonder how this isn’t considered child abuse.

The questions not asked nearly enough are:  Who's funding this mentally challenged, ignorant, foolish person, and who provided that yacht, which needs to be confiscated?  What's interesting is who are the people traveling with her, and what do they do for a living? 

The rest of the crew included six French nationals, including a French-Palestinian member of the European Parliament named Rima Hassan, plus citizens of Brazil, Spain, and Turkey, and an Irish actor named Liam Cunningham who appeared in the HBO series Game of Thrones........... Fortunately for Thunberg and her crew, they were not treated the way Hamas handles its hostages. Instead, the Israeli government released video of the detainees in good spirits as they chowed down on pastrami sandwiches.....

Yet Turkey called this the act of a terrorist state.... Imagine that .... and others are demanding a lot of people send more ships to cause trouble by claiming to have been kidnapped as Thunberg has claimed, in spite of the fact they were given every opportunity to turn back and refused.  

This was "virtue signaling at its worst".  And her reason for this stunt?  "Her complaint was that Hamas was no longer in charge of aid distribution, so she essentially went on a dark money-paid yacht cruise to support Muslim terror".  Which is why they threw their phones and laptops over board in order to prevent proof of what seems obvious:  "Greta Thunberg is a Muslim terrorist working with Hamas."  

Perhaps they might wish to give Greta a dictionary in order for her to look up the definition for the word kidnapped.  But, truth be told, that won't help, since one of the missions of leftists is to redefine words to make them fit their agenda, as George Orwell wrote in his book 1984, war is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength, and more.   

The Left’s Twisted Morality - One of the strangest things about leftists is that they claim to be more moral than the rest of us. This is because they have an inverted moral sense: on issue after issue, the Left’s position is not good, but evil. Whether it is excusing Hamas, issuing orders to keep illegal immigrant pedophiles and human traffickers in the U.S., or telling girls to shower with boys, the Left’s pet issues are all on the wrong side of any sane moral code.

Truth, facts, and history are on the same side, all of which is despised by leftism since time, truth, and history are not on their side.  Disaster follows leftists just as Sancho Panza followed Don Quixote, a mad man.  That's history, and that history is incontestable.  

Greta Thunberg is a strange and angry person who's been out of the limelight for a couple of years, and I have to believe that whatever far left source that's funding her requires her to be actively involved in promoting leftist insanity on a regular basis, and she will comply, following madness, just like Sancho Panza.

 As for that video they were shown of the horrors perpetrated by Hamas on innocent and defenseless civilians, mostly filmed by the terrorists, she and the rest of these misfits refused to watch it.

P&D Geopolitical Edition

By Rich Kozlovich

As is well known Hamas launched a surprise attack against an unarmed defenseless civilian population performing vile acts on men, women, and children, even baking a baby alive in an oven and filming it to the great pleasure of Gazans.  They initially attacked wearing some form of uniform, but as soon as they became the targets they dumped those uniforms as they had no desire to have a standup fight with armed and trained military personnel.  Killing defenseless men, women and children is so much easier.   

Now it's a war of attrition, and some are questioning who will survive, Hamas or Israel?  Get real, Hamas is doomed in Gaza, and even the Gazans are marching against them.  Not in favor of Israel mind you, just in favor of their own self interests, they would still dance in the streets if more coffins with dead Israeli hostages were paraded through the streets.   There are no innocents in Gaza, and in spite of Hamas claims 70% of casualties have been women and children, that's another lie, it turns out "72% of casualties are male, a demographic that aligns with Hamas combatants."

 In Turkey President Erdogan arrested his political opponent in the upcoming election and Erdogan's regime has taking on all the ear marks of the Iranian model of government, and an awful lot of people are really unhappy about that, triggering massive demonstrations involving hundreds of thousands of people, as the author goes on to say:

The arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, the leading political rival of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, on corruption charges — after being accused of both corruption and terrorism — marks yet another sign that Turkey is becoming the next Iran: A state where elections are tightly controlled, rigged in advance and reduced to a democratic façade without free and fair campaign conditions.

Turkey’s Islamist ruler has not yet established an official Turkish equivalent of Iran’s Guardian Council — a 12-member body that vets all candidates in elections and disqualifies those who pose a perceived threat to the mullah regime. However, the arrest of İmamoğlu, following the earlier imprisonment of popular Kurdish political leader Selahattin Demirtaş, who has been in jail since 2016, confirms that a de facto Guardian Council is taking shape in Turkey.

Turkey is becoming a state where elections are tightly controlled, rigged in advance, and reduced to a democratic facade without free and fair campaign conditions.

Notice the pattern playing out here worldwide.  Erdogan weaponized the justice system, wants to rewrite their constitution eliminating their legislative structure to install him as the absolute ruler, a "theocratic dictator".

While there may be some validity to charges of corruption against İmamoglu, corruption is so wide spread in Turkey's political sphere that would be expected, but it's only allowed for those who support Erdogan.

Will these demonstrations alter Turkey's political structure?  We'll see, as every tool of oppression is being used against anyone who stands against Erdogan.  But I think it needs to be understood none of this is really about Democracy as we know it.  It's about changing who's in charge for their own benefit.  Corruption in government isn't an anomaly throughout the Middle East and Africa, it's the rule, and it's a rule the group in power wants to exploit to the limits, and even beyond.

Anything said by Erdogan that may sound reasonable and conciliatory, is simply not to be taken seriously.  Remember, Iran is the model for what Erdogan is doing, and just like Khomeini who talked about bringing democracy to Iran and had no desire to become Iran's ruler, it was a deliberate lie.  A lie that was reported by a gullible media, after all they really liked the idea the pro-American government of the Shah of Iran was deposed.

In Turkey Erdogan has manipulated the tax system to punish anyone who disagrees or challenges him and fines any newspaper massively for reporting the facts about his polices, aims, and goals.   The media that remains spews out adoring accolades of Erdogan's greatness, and the tens of millions of children who've gone through their education system have been properly indoctrinated to be pro Erdogan supporters, all of which makes these massive demonstrations even more amazing.

Support for terrorist groups is part of Erdogan's foreign policy, and it's time the west recognized that, but Turkey is a member of NATO and that can't be ignored.  Their support of violent terrorist jihadi groups has to be addressed by declaring Turkey a supporter of terrorists, and such a designation should be the touchstone for all negotiations and dealings with Turkey.
