Israel Katz, calls Thunberg a anti-Semite in a statement.
-Israel will not allow anyone to break the naval blockade on Gaza, Katz said in a statement to “The Time.”
– To the anti-Semitic Greta and her friends, I say plainly: You must turn back, because you will not come to Gaza, he says.
In addition to Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, actor Liam Cunningham, French MP Rima Hassan Mobarak, who is of Palestinian origin, and other activists are on board the Madleen.
“Madleen” is also said to have saved four of approx. forty refugees. The four jumped into the sea and swam towards Thunberg and her crew, to escape the Liberian navy.
