(Worthy Satire) – Environmental activist Greta Thunberg made headlines this week after claiming she was “kidnapped” by the Israeli Defense Forces during a protest near the Gaza border. However, eyewitnesses and leaked footage tell a different story — one that includes vegan meals, complimentary Wi-Fi, and bedtime stories in three languages.
“They dragged me into a climate-controlled room,” Thunberg recounted on her livestream. “And then… they gave me a gluten-free meal and asked if I preferred lavender or chamomile tea. The horror.”
“It was terrifying,” she sobbed. “They gave me warm socks and herbal tea without even asking my pronouns.”
An IDF spokesperson confirmed her brief detainment, saying, “Yes, Ms. Thunberg was taken into custody for trespassing in a restricted zone. Per standard protocol, she was offered food, a blanket, and an iPad with nature documentaries. At no point was she harmed — though she did get mildly offended when someone said ‘global warming’ instead of ‘climate crisis.’”
Thunberg described the experience as “deeply traumatic,” especially when a soldier offered her a hoodie “in a non-neutral earth tone.”
Activist groups immediately jumped on the incident, accusing Israel of “emotional violence via excessive hospitality.” Several influencers launched the #FreeGreta campaign — which quickly fizzled when people realized she’d already been released, refreshed, and rehydrated.
Asked if she now feels safe, Thunberg replied, “No. Not until Israel signs the Green New Deal and apologizes for the psychological toll of feeding me without a consent form.”
Meanwhile, the soldier who held the door for her was reportedly disciplined — for assuming she wanted oat milk instead of almond.
