It's not that I'm not making any sense, beardedbruce, it's that you're not using your brain. Israel and the complicit corporate media in the US (and several hasbara people right here in this thread) keep saying that the reason for the blockade is to keep weapons out of Gaza. All of the ships of the last flotilla, including the Mavi Marmara and the Rachel Corrie, volunteered to be inspected by a neutral third party like the UN. Since the government of Israel turned down that offer, it proves that weapons are not the reason they are imposing the blockade. We can prove now that at least one ship, the Rachel Corrie, did make that offer, and we have proof that Israel turned it down (because they didn't allow the Rachel Corrie to proceed to Gaza). So their claim that the blockade is to keep weapons out has been proven to be a lie. Now don't you just feel foolish for accusing me of not making any sense? (If you don't, you should.)
