New video that showed law enforcement officials detaining far-Left climate activist Greta Thunberg this week at an anti-energy protest in Europe sparked allegations that the entire situation was &#8220;staged&#8221; for the media.
The 20-year-old and her cohorts were protesting the planned demolition of the coal mining town Lutzerath in western Germany to make way for an expanded coal mining operation. The demonstration comes as the continent deals with an energy crisis sparked by Russia’s war in Ukraine.
Thunberg was initially seen smiling as German police picked her up and carried her away. However, video later emerged that showed the moments before Thunberg was carried off by police.
The footage showed the police effectively allowing the media to take pictures and film Thunberg before they removed her from the area.
Several major Twitter accounts claimed that the situation looked &#8220;staged&#8221; for the media.

This is how the fake arrest of Greta Thunberg was done.
Mainstream media will show only one photo where policemen are carrying her. Let me know if any mainstream media has covered this video!

“Greta Thunberg was part of a group of activists who rushed towards the ledge,” a police spokesperson told Reuters. “However, she was then stopped and carried by us with this group out of the immediate danger area to establish their identity.”
“There is no reason to hold them for days,” the spokesperson added. “It might take hours or they will go immediately.”
Thunberg was eventually released by police.
&#8220;Yesterday I was part of a group that peacefully protested the expansion of a coal mine in Germany,&#8221; Thunberg tweeted Wednesday. &#8220;We were kettled by police and then detained but were let go later that evening. Climate protection is not a crime.&#8221;

Germany has expanded its use of coal to the highest levels in more than half a decade after Russia clamped down on natural gas exports to Europe.
Part of the increased demand for energy comes from France, where nuclear reactor outages have caused issues.
Germany has had to extend “the lives of Germany’s nuclear power facilities” despite the country’s desire to move away from the clean energy source.
During a speech several years ago, Thunberg repeatedly condemned adults by dramatically saying, “how dare you!” as she complained about how the world works.
“My message is that we’ll be watching you. This is all wrong, I shouldn’t be up here, I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean,” Thunberg began. “Yet, you all come to us young people for hope, how dare you. You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words and yet I’m one of the lucky ones. People are suffering, people are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction and all you can talk about is money and fairytales of eternal economic growth.”
“You are failing us but the young people are starting to understand your betrayal,” she said. “The eyes of all future generations are upon you and if you choose to fail us I say we will never forgive you. We will not let you get away with this. Right here, right now, is where we draw the line the world is waking up, and change is coming whether you like it or not.”
