    The rumour is that she was recorded every minute of her time in Israeli
    hands and her claims of being maltreated have been quietly responded to >>> with a 'STFU. We have the tapes. And can prove you are a lying
    fraud.'

    Actually, the IDF seems to be saying that Greta herself didn't complain
    much, and the reports seem to be mostly coming from other detainees.

    Your post, though, was the first and only occurrence so far where I saw
    the mention of such recordings so far.

    Sure. The IDF are *absolutely* the most trustworthy party here with no
    history of extrajudicial activity, lies and murder. <eye roll>

    Rumour is that Donald Trump is a very stable genius.
    Rumour has it that Donald Trump is suffering from dementia.

    I would sooner believe that Greta Thunberg was mistreated in IDF custody but I have heard so far of no complaints from her but that the flotilla was stopped from relieving the starvation of Gaza children
    which even moved Trump to compassion.

    I think it was reported that she complained of less than acceptable
    conditions to some diplomatic representation/mission; there have also
    been reports of food and water deprivation, as well as of disreputable behaviour possibly to be exploitable as political propaganda (in which
    event there will be footage of it?), by both IDF members and a minister
    of the israeli cabinet. [1] (apparently mainly based on [2], but with
    further content)

    There have also been reports that IDF members were likely trying to
    forge signatures of detainees based on their travel documents. [3]

    What's the icing on top of the cake to me is the portuguese foreign
    minister blaming activists for choosing Yom Kippur, when Israeli
    services would be understaffed or closed. For a trip *to Gaza*, not
    Israel... [4] That comment could have been completely avoided...
