Because there is a point of no return in the worlds perception of you, the U.S. has been protecting Israel from that, but every time someone asks difficult questions of Israel and isn’t silenced or hurt the powers of fascism lose respect from other evil people because they look weak.
More eyes on Greta means Israel has to make a choice it doesn’t want to, de-escalate. The IDF is trained in committing genocide with military weapons, they are utterly untrained in fighting an actual war at this point, they really have very little leverage to continue the genocide of palestinians now, though of course “too little too late” is the necessary refrain.
not sure what happened there tho xD

The audience viewing Greta’s ship getting bombed will be a subset of people who care about Palestine. Israel wouldn’t give half a shit.
The only way for her to do this safely is if she became an official diplomat of Sweden.
Lol, ok.
That imagery will be remembered as a pivotal moment in world history and Greta would become (if not literally) basically a Saint.
I don’t think Netanyahu wants that, which is why it is the perfect move.
