That's kinda disappointing. I didn't expect it to go well but this is just kinda a nothing burger. They had to have known the boat wasn't going to make it.
They are engaged in god damn genocide. You think they give a fuck about the legality of detaining a few europeans? nearly every nation will put you in prison for trying to enter illegally by boat. Australia has a concentration camp on Nauru Island for this exact purpose.
Why don't people get it, non-violent protest has never worked. You aren't running a blockade if you just sit there with your hands up when they stop you. This is theater.
At the very least they could have rigged the boat and bailed when the idf came and claimed that it was the zionists that blew up the boat. This action puts next to no pressure on the entity.
Why would you muddy the waters framing them for something when they're committing more than enough crimes on their own? If just one instance of framing were proven it would give them something to point at and claim that everything else being said about them is fake or a setup too.
You are looking into an outhouse and talking about muddying the waters. In this media landscape no claim will go unchallenged regardless of how much evidence there is. The zionists and their supporters already say everything video exposing the genocide is staged by actors. So telling a lie isn't going to make any difference.
The zionists and their supporters are as ideologically polarized as they can get. They are supporting a genocide. The people opposed to genocide however have a lot of room to be radicalized. They need to be motivated to go beyond words. If a Greta said "israel blew up my boat and tried to kill me" and israel says "they blew up their own boat" nobody is going to change sides. What will change is how far people will go bringing an end to the genocide.
Most people aren't indifferent to the plight of Palestine they are just afraid of what will happen if they speak too loudly against the status quo. "Raising awareness" stunts like this are years too late. There is enough awareness. Moving the "genocide bad" people to "israel is a terrorist state that has no right to exist and anyone who disagrees deserves to burn" is the only useful purpose of the propaganda war. Greta getting arrested again doesn't do that.
All fair and very valid points. I'm still not so sure about the sabotage plan, but, I can't deny your logic is sound!
