Israeli Official Slams Greta Thunberg's Gaza Response as 'Instagram Activism'

Amidst the ongoing conflict in Gaza, a wave of criticism has been directed towards climate activist Greta Thunberg. David Mencer, a spokesperson for the Israeli government, has publicly denounced Thunberg's efforts as insufficient and self-serving. In an interview with GB News, Mencer stated, "She's done a job for herself... This wasn't humanitarian aid. This was Instagram activism." The video accompanying the interview shows Thunberg alongside footage of a relatively small aid shipment to Gaza, raising questions about the scale of her humanitarian efforts. The video also highlights the ongoing plight of hostages, further questioning Thunberg's approach. The controversy underscores the complexities of humanitarian responses during wartime and the intense scrutiny faced by public figures.
