Climate radical and notorious anti-Israel protester Greta Thunberg just got the ultimate dose of poetic justice.

As reported by the UK Telegraph, Thunberg was booted out of the region via Paris on Tuesday — on a commercial flight, no less. That’s right: the same climate crusader who once refused to fly because of carbon emissions had to board a jet to get back home.
