Lindsey Graham Fantasizes About Sinking Gaza Aid Ship Carrying Greta Thunberg
Briefly

On February 28, 2025, Sen. Lindsey Graham made controversial comments regarding a civilian humanitarian aid ship en route to Gaza, staffed by activists including Greta Thunberg. He suggested that the activists would be in danger, saying, "Hope Greta and her friends can swim!" His remarks have been condemned as incitement of violence and reflect his longstanding reputation as a warmonger. Criticism has come from various quarters, highlighting the implications of his statements amidst a humanitarian crisis precipitated by Israel's blockade on Gaza, which has severely affected aid efforts.
"Hope Greta and her friends can swim!" This post is a clear incitement of violence from the senator - who has a reputation for being a warmonger... inciting violence against a civilian ship.
This is [what happens] when you sell your soul to Zionism," said Palestinian journalist Abubaker Abed in a reply to Graham, criticizing his hateful comments and calling him cowardly.
Strange for a U.S. Senator to wish for what would be a terrorist attack on a civilian aid vessel," said Dylan Williams highlighting the alarming nature of Graham's remarks.
The attack comes as Israel's two-month blockade has left the aid operation in Gaza on the verge of total collapse, amplifying the severity of the humanitarian crisis.
