So Israel went ahead and murdered 9 members of an AID flotilla - WTF?

Prophet Saddam · 05-31-2010, 08:27 AM

In international waters, no less.

When are we going to stop supporting this murderous country? The entire region is fucked.

Israeli commandos storm aid flotilla; 9 killed - Yahoo! News

JERUSALEM – Israeli naval commandos stormed a flotilla of ships carrying aid and hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists to the blockaded Gaza Strip on Monday, killing nine passengers in a botched raid that provoked international outrage and a diplomatic crisis.

Dozens of activists and six Israeli soldiers were wounded in the bloody predawn confrontation in international waters. The violent takeover dealt yet another blow to Israel's international image, already tarnished by war crimes accusations in Gaza and its 3-year-old blockade of the impoverished Palestinian territory.

Imagine if Iran had done this. The bombs would be flying.

Prophet Saddam · 05-31-2010, 08:55 AM

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. This looks like an act of piracy on the part of the Israelis. There will be an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council later today.

Maybe they'll write a sternly-written letter to Israel begging them to show restraint and asking them not to finish in our mouth.

israel doesn't have to worry about the security council. Their partner in terror will protect them.

Prove me wrong. israel doesn't care about the 3 billion, they care about our veto power.

HTAM · 05-31-2010, 10:48 AM

I'm surprised, but I'm not.

Before the end of the day both sides will have felt the actions were justified, and it's more 'rockets, grenades, and car bombs, oh MY!'
The real tragedy here is the people who have a vested interest in decisions that lead to events like this, perceived or otherwise, are rarely the ones who are held accountable or become fatalities.

They should be more like our government. Y'know the guys who insist that this nation is founded upon Christianity. The TRUTH, yo!

ISrael can attack aid-ships cruising in international waters and kill whoever they want without suffering ANY consequences

israel can have nuclear weapons

israel can bomb whoever they want

and the world does nothing

Greetings everyone, and long time me no pop in here.

I (Adam Syed) am going to be a guest on the radio show of Kevin Barrett at the Pacifica affiliate NoLiesRadio.org from 12 to 1 pm EST in less than 12 hours (Tuesday June 1).

We're going to be discussing the controversial issues of Israel, Zionism, and that one other favorite topic of mine.

IMO Israel has acted as a rogue state ever since its creation and it is an apartheid state. The United Nations "gave" the land to the Zionists under conditions that were never met, namely the protection of the region's existing inhabitants.

Anyway, over and out for now...

Bad dog · 06-02-2010, 12:38 PM

actually it was the protesters that attacked the commando's first.
They were sent in with paintball rifle (the non lethal sort) as primary weapons.
After being mobbed and having some secondary weapons (the soldiers own hand pistols) used against them, some of the soldiers that hadn't jumped or been thrown into the rea, began to return fire.

Grieves · 06-02-2010, 12:47 PM

Dude from my town is/was on that flotilla....Pretty small world...

so they went in with paintball rifles but also had hand pistols as secondary weapons?

that was actually the SECOND mistake

the first being they boarded the ships illegally, thats where the buck starts. everything that happens after that is on the israeli's. the people on the boats were simply defending themselves against pirates.

why are you calling it a mob when its a group of people defending themselves from an illegal measure?

Because israel is ALWAYS the victim.

so on my way from work one of bibis fromer chiefs-of-staff is on the AM(1210) dial and i give him a listen..carefully weigh what he has to saywhat he has to say, and objectivly speaking he was dead wrong... the blockade is indeed illegal, untill such time as gaza is formally recognized as a state & the two officially declare war...

nationionlism subjugates the individual to serve the needs of the state
