“The embassy has been able to meet with Greta,” reads the email. “She informed of dehydration. She has received insufficient amounts of both water and food. She also stated that she had developed rashes which she suspects were caused by bedbugs. She spoke of harsh treatment and said she had been sitting for long periods on hard surfaces.”

“Another detainee reportedly told another embassy that they had seen her [Thunberg] being forced to hold flags while pictures were taken. She wondered whether images of her had been distributed,” the Swedish ministry’s official added.

She got arrested and there might be some questionable treatment. That’s a far cry from doing “everything imaginable to her”. Quoting another flotilla member in your post who is obviously exaggerating is a bit disingenuous.

Wtf are you on about? There are so many steps before you have to resort to murder. If you have exhausted them, you should be able to claim self defense.

If you just straight up murder someone, yes, you should be prosecuted.

The first paragraphs referred to a specific case, in which the defendant told her brother about the abuse and then the brother murdered the abuser. About 38 years ago.

She was not allowed to talk about the years of abuse during trial, as that was not relevant to the case.

I haven’t read the case, but I’m just gonna assume that the threats her husband made were relevant.

If the law is just about histories of abuse becoming admissible evidence, I don’t really see a problem with the bill.

Why isn’t it surprising, that ‘the gray zone’ is playing into the “The Mossad killed Kirk” conspiracy theories?

This article seems very one-sided.

This petition wants to extend existing laws, to not only include nonviolent offenses, but anything except murder.

As far as I can see, this would authorize courts to vacate the conviction (make as if it never happened).

Now I am no lawyer, so I might be wrong here.

But if I’m right, this seems kinda unhinged, considering self defense exists.

Like if someone is posing a threat, you are allowed to defend yourself, but chopping body parts off in their sleep is not an OK response to abuse.

If I’m misunderstanding something please enlighten me. But this seems to greenlight revenge.

Damn, they just firing all the good engineers, huh?

They usually pay people to spread the misinformation.

I think I tracked down the source for that image. It seems to be by Omar Al-Qattaa and pictures a child in Gaza with cerebral palsy and malnutrition. According to this, Malnutrition can be a side-effect of cerebral palsy, due to difficulties swallowing etc. Which is probably made harder by the war, which is bad, but not reflective of the general population.

It’s always pretty hard to find the sources for these images and when you do, it often has some special circumstances or is just from Yemen or smth.

Apart from that, are there no rules here for news-articles or NSFL tags?
