Climate activist Greta Thunberg arrested in the Netherlands

Let’s be honest Greta Thunberg is a high school dropout who is a terrorist.  She has closed roads and bridges, stopped emergency vehicles, harmed the health and economy of many—in the name of a scam.

It is time she goes to jail and stay there for years.  Greta does not practice free speech.  She is a terrorist that abuses people for her own ego and illiteracy.

“Thunberg was initially detained and held for a short time by local police, then was detained a second time after she quickly rejoined a small group of protesters blocking a road leading to the city’s main railway station after she was released.

At that point, she and others were taken away in a police van.”

Nothing but a long prison term for her terrorist activities will stop her.  Make an example of her and others in the “cause” of the climate or support of Hamas.  Otherwise, chaos and destruction will occur.

Dutch authorities have detained Greta Thunberg and other climate protesters from the Extinction Rebellion group after they blocked a motorway in The Hague on Saturday.

Dutch authorities detained prominent Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg twice on Saturday, when she joined Extinction Rebellion demonstrators to occupy a motorway in The Hague, Netherlands.

Thunberg was initially detained and held for a short time by local police, then was detained a second time after she quickly rejoined a small group of protesters blocking a road leading to the city’s main railway station after she was released.

At that point, she and others were taken away in a police van.

A spokesperson for the group Extinction Rebellion said Thunberg had been held for several hours before being released in the evening.

Thunberg had joined members of Extinction Rebellion to protest Dutch fossil fuel subsidies. 

Dozens of police officers, including several on horseback, were seen blocking protesters from getting onto the A12 motorway leading to the national parliament in The Hague.

Activists from the group have blocked the highway more than 30 times previously to protest the subsidies.  

Police later announced on X, formerly Twitter, that they had arrested more than 400 people throughout the course of the day for ignoring orders to disperse.

Protests against fossil fuel subsidies

The demonstrators waved and chanted: “We are unstoppable, another world is possible.”

“It’s important to demonstrate today because we are living in a state of planetary emergency,” Thunberg told AFP news agency. “We must do everything to avoid that crisis and to save human lives,” she added. 

Asked whether she was worried about being arrested, Thunberg said: “Why should I be?” 

Extinction Rebellion has said it will continue to hold protests until the Dutch government stops using public funds to subsidize the oil and gas industry. 

“Meanwhile the ecological crisis continues to rage and the country’s outgoing cabinet pretends that we have all the time in the world, while the crisis is now,” Extinction Rebellion said in a statement posted on X.

The protest was part of a plan to apply pressure on the Dutch government ahead of a planned debate about fossil fuel subsidies in June.

Are we running out of oil?

In February, Thunberg, who is 21 years old, was cleared of a public order offense by a London court over a protest at an oil and gas conference in October.

In January, she was detained with other activists during protests against the demolition of the German coal village of Lützerath. Thunberg shot to fame in 2018 when she began staging weekly protests outside the Swedish parliament.

She has repeatedly been fined in Sweden and the UK for civil disobedience in connection with protests

One thought on “Climate activist Greta Thunberg arrested in the Netherlands

  1. I hope they add the charges of What A skank! too. I pity the poor guard at the prisons. that snarling face could tempt the Pope to have a bad Easter Sunday! The Netherlands have had so much trouble with the greenies. The farmers, and Holland is a huge Euro food producer and are being unfairly scapegoated for the phoniest scam in history, Klimat Xhange! IMO, the CCP is behind this to weaken Western Nations.
