    Greta Thunberg was trolled for this photo as she was seen smiling seeing a sandwich while her pre-recorded video that she had been kidnapped was released.

    The photo of Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, smiling at the sight of a sandwich, became the flashpoint on social media as people asked whether she was kidnapped at all, as she claimed. The Israeli foreign ministry called it a drama and posted the photo of the crew members of Madleen, the Gaza-bound aid ship — sitting side by side while an Israeli soldier offered them bottled water and sandwiches. Greta Thunberg was also among them. But the Freedom Flotilla Coalition claimed earlier that the Israeli military attacked and unlawfully boarded the Madleen which was taking aid to Gaza. “If you see this video, we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel,” the FFC released a video in which Thunberg said this.When the FFC lost communication with Madleen, it began posting pre-recorded video messages and Thunberg’s one was one of them. In a statement, the FFC said Israel had acted with “total impunity” and that the vessel’s cargo, which included baby formula, food and medical supplies was “confiscated.” Israel said it would transfer the goods to Gaza through humanitarian channels.“Israel has no legal authority to detain international volunteers aboard the Madleen,” said Huwaida Arraf, human rights attorney and Freedom Flotilla organizer. “This seizure blatantly violates international law and defies the (International Court of Justice’s) binding orders requiring unimpeded humanitarian access to Gaza.”Israel called the ship a ‘selfuie yacht’ and said the ship was intercepted to give the celebrity activists sandwiches and water and to safely transport them to the shores of Israel.Social media users trolled Greta Thunberg, pointing out that the climate activist might not have liked the fact that the sandwiches were wrapped in plastic. One said that those were also white bread with no mayonnaise and not even toasted.“Greta is now being held hostage by Jews, who are taunting her with sandwiches possibly containing artificial additives and wrapped in plastic. These brutes are forcing her to smile!” one said. British broadcaster Piers Morgan called Thunberg an “attention-seeking narcissist”. “What an insult to the actual hostages in Gaza who really WERE kidnapped. This stupid stunt is all about your ego, and will make zero difference to the plight of innocent Palestinians caught up in this dreadful war,” Morgan posted.
