There is a great irony in a certain autistic Swedish teenager who wants to save the planet from the evils of fossil fuel but is, at the same time, willing to turn over a significant portion of that planet to Bronze Age barbarians who care as much about the environment as they do women’s rights.

But that’s the case. The Swedish teenager in question is the Swedish Doom Pixie, Greta Thunberg, and in recognition of her support of Hamas, she has been named “Antisemite of the Week” by a group called StopAntisemitism.
Climate activist Greta Thunberg was named “Antisemite of the Week” by a Jewish group following her arrest at a recent anti-Israel rally.
Thunberg “has joined the ranks of keffiyeh-clad protesters, brazenly voicing her disdain for the Jewish state,” the watchdog group StopAntisemitism said Friday, days after Thunberg was among those hauled off by Danish police during a demonstration at Copenhagen University.
“She has sadly transformed her activism into a platform for vile Jew-hatred,” the organization added.
Maybe this isn’t as shocking as it seems on the surface. The Hamas/antisemitic movements are fundamentally anti-freedom. The radical “green” movement in which the Doom Pixie has made her name is also a fundamentally anti-freedom movement. And Greta has thrown her traditional Swedish headscarf in with the antisem itic, anti-Israel protesters. She’s branching out, it seems; broadening her horizons, as it were.
The 21-year-old was arrested on Sept. 4 while protesting with the group Students Against the Occupation, which called on the university to cease all connections with Israel, including putting an end to several cross-university student programs.
Among the programs between Copenhagen University and Israel is even a student exchange program dedicated to Thunberg’s flagship cause — fighting climate change, according to StopAntisemitism.

Because radical Islamic regimes have such a great track record on environmental issues.

Greta’s on record demanding Stockholm University cut all ties with Israel. She wrote:
“We demand that the Stockholm University administration cut all ties, agreements and collaborations with the genocidal, apartheid state of Israel,” she wrote after attending a demonstration at Stockholm University in May, where she was also carried away by police.
Some obvious things she gets wrong:
- Israel is not a genocidal state. Greta clearly lacks any real understanding as to what “genocide” means, but one hint we may offer is that what Israel is doing in Gaza is not genocide.
- Israel is not an apartheid state. Israel has many Arab Muslim citizens. Those citizens can and do serve in the Isreal Defense Forces, they can be elected to and serve in Israel’s Parliament, the Knesset, and can hold sensitive jobs in fields like emergency medicine. If Israel is trying to be an apartheid state, they are failing.
Were I advising the Stockholm University administration, my advice would be to tell Greta Thunberg and her compatriots where they can stick their demands, that being in a place where the sun most assuredly never shines.

It’s rather baffling that anyone takes this young nitwit seriously. If anyone had taken her claims about climate change at face value, her support for murderous barbarians should negate any such consideration.
