Trump today (October 7) spoke about environmental activist Greta Thunberg, who was detained by Israel: "She has anger management issues. I think she should see a doctor. If you observe her, you'll find that as a young person, she's furious, completely crazy. You can take her away."
Israel said it has expelled environmental activist Greta Thunberg and other 170 members of the international aid convoy to Greece and Slovakia. These people were prevented by Israel last week from delivering aid supplies to Gaza.
Reuters reported that the Israeli Foreign Ministry issued a statement on Monday (October 6), accompanied by a photo of Swedish female environmental activist Greta Thunberg preparing to board a plane for departure at the airport.
Commentary: Greta Thunberg was expelled this time for participating in the "Freedom Flotilla" aid mission to Gaza. Her actions have been criticized by Israel as "propaganda stunts," and she publicly called Israel's actions in Gaza "genocide," which has touched Israel's sensitive nerve. Trump's remarks against Thunberg seem casual, but they are actually a clear political stance: by criticizing opponents of Israel, he subtly shows favor to Israel and strengthens his "pro-Israel" position on the Israel-Palestine issue. This operation of transforming humanitarian disputes into personal attacks not only avoids taking a substantive position on the aid blockade, but also caters to the preferences of his political base.
