Subject: RE: BS: New Israeli atrocity: attack on Gaza aid
For the third time, here's the video with the proof that it was the Israelis who opened fire first, for those who couldn't be arsed to watch it the first two times it was posted...

Once again, in this video, which is from the live feed, which I and many other people watched in its entirety while this was going down, we can see an English speaking reporter (and several Turkish and an Arab) reporting the fact that people on the ship have been wounded. A few minutes later, they report the arrival of a helicopter, and we can see the helicopter come into view and let down a rope. Then we see the Israelis leave the helicopter and absail down the rope. After that, they report the presence of a second helicopter.

Passengers were wounded before any Israelis were even aboard the ship. So they can't possibly have been acting in self-defense. And the witnesses say that the Israelis opened fire first. The video evidence shows that it was the Israelis who opened fire first. The passenger testimony is that the Israelis opened fire first. The wounds to the back suggest execution style killings, or killings of people who were trying to get away. Many people who were watching the live feed say that the Israelis attacked first. All of the evidence shows that it was the Israelis who were the attackers, and the people on the ship who were the defenders.
