Thread Name: BS: New Israeli atrocity: attack on Gaza aid
Subject: RE: BS: New Israeli atrocity: attack on Gaza aid
"My ruminations on this disquieting subject earlier this week were rudely interrupted by the latest news that Israeli efforts to inspect a convoy headed for Gaza resulted in pacifists attacking IDF members with clubs, knives and guns and getting shot."

Except that there is no evidence that there were any knives or guns.

"Admit it. If a convoy of activists insisted on bringing uninspected cargoes into North Korea, attacked customs officials who tried to inspect them and got killed, there would be no outcry."

The activists and ships were inspected by customs officials in Turkey.

If there had been any attempt to attack Turkish or Israeli customs officials the flotilla would have loast all credibility.

So I for one will not agree with this bullshit assertion.

Lets see what US ambassador Edward Peck has to say on the subject ...
