Israeli piracy will set a precedent for Somali pirates in International waters

@FoziaAbdi Really ?

[455gs1]

if it were a publicity stunt, im sure there would of traveled light, but i think they had good intensions to dock etc. HOW is it that well i know, but israels seems to get away with ALOT!!! same as us govt but worse, its like ISRAEL leads the way in all things bad!!!

[Dragomir995]

@455gs1

No, the only things that are reported in middle eastern news is regarding Israel's wrongful actions. Hamas fires rockets out of Gaza into Israeli cities every three days, but you only hear when Israel bombs weapons storages. Lebanon attacks Israel, but all you hear about are Lebanese soldiers who died in the crossfire. Refugees in the west bank are attacking soldiers but all you hear about are settlers building homes. The media bias is prevalent and leads to these hateful feelings.

Its a fact the westen Countries are dumping nuclear waste and chemical waste in the Water seas of Somalia's coast, if you have been to somalia's coasts you would have known it.. there is even pictures of tons dead fish and the deases they hae found in the fishes.... the Pirates are heroes and are supportet by the somali people, dont come any where near our waters, as long we dont have any proper goverment to look after our coasts, the Pirates will do their job!!

[qalaaye20]

WE somalis we are not pirates we are defending our Water . westreners dambe Nuclier waxes in our water

[91177info]

@qalaaye20 It would be great if you had a video of what you say. The dumbing of nuclear waste. Let me know how I can help.

[qalaaye20]

@91177info

look at this video we have 1000s of videos thats true watch?v=-lM7VCIuCXI

[91177info]

@qalaaye20 Yes, good video. So basically the West has been dumping toxic waste in the sea near Somalia. Sinking ships too full of waste.

[slickrickdarula]

@qalaaye20 Not all in the west call you Pirates. I for one call you freedom fighters fighting for their land and water. Simpathy and cheers from Canada.

[leonab930]

Somalians are free to blockade their country, nobody wants to go there, let alone cargo ships. Now if they block the Suez canal that is another story .The Somalians already grab what they want and no1 does anything..

As far as the Gaza "freedom" flotilla, they shouldve been blown out instead of shown the mercy of being boarded. They are people that ignore signs and then whine when they get whatever the sign said would happen. STOP means stop

[supercannon6]

"Pirates of the Mediteranean" staring Johnny Depp, right? It's hilarious how Hamas can call ANYONE "pirates" when they are the ones with the beards, eye-patches and generally unwashed appearence! This has had more hype and publicity-stunts than "Pirates of the Caribbean" EVER had! Depp's movies was more believeable too...

[91177info]

@supercannon6 BLOCKED for not knowing Israel funded Hamas in the beginning.

Fully armed commandos dropping from helicopters with big guns. People were scared for their lifes. Dumb military, stupid nazi israel. "Dont expect win against terrorism while you terrorize other people" Martin Luther King Jr.

[im1greatman]

Israel is a rouge nation. They use acts of terror to get what they want.

Soon America will break its ties with Israel and they will have to fend for themselves.

[ThunderDog97]

@im1greatman And the sooner the better for everyone, especially America.

My own thoughts is precedent is a new one will be set NOT for the Somaili but for the World. If the Isrealis get away with it will be a case of STATE piracy is acceptable whilst PRIVATE piracy is NOT. Rather like the case we have with rerrorism and STATE terrorism. To be honest, I can see Isreal will be justified again by governments something like right to self determination. However,

the publicity will win more everyday people as it did with the fight against SA in the 80's

[possetraxx]

Is gaza shooting missles into israel citys still or no.  truth?

[badgeless]

@possetraxx

A rag-tag group of resisters (home-made rockets with no warheads) as a threat to Israel (a world super power with hi-tech weapons) is ridiculous. Does Israel want security? Go back behind internationally recognized borders, clear out the illegal settlements, build a 100ft wall at the border and man the border with thousands of IDF soldiers (on the Israeli side, of course). Instant security. Unless? The "security" issue is a lie to cover ethnic cleansing and land theft?

[BRISTOLAGAINSTNWO]

@badgeless You hit the nail on the head.

[badgeless]

@possetraxx

wrong. Gazans have no missiles. Repeat: no missiles. Once again: no missiles. Gazans are resisting the Israeli occupation with home made rockets without guidance systems, or warheads. Gazans also have rocks and stones. The world is not believing Israel's lies anymore. One more thing: the place these rockets seldom hit is Sedrot. Sedrot is built on demolished Palestinian villages on Palestinian land. Israel expelled the Palestinians, bulldozed their homes, then stole the land.

[medini2]

God help all of them. The world is so stupefied, I think they would believe any lie told. I think we have been "allowed" to receive some of the truth because it is so demoralizing to be so helpless.

[navtel]

attack israel and put an end to their apartheid and murderous practices.. bastards.

[badgeless]

@navtel

peaceful resisters world-wide will do more to end this disgusting Israeli apartheid than any attack will

[BRISTOLAGAINSTNWO]

@badgeless The world is watching and not long left before the world shows them some of their own medicine. Israel knows this and will try to pre-emt but it wont work because their own kind will let them down. Israel biggest weakness is that they are COWARDS. Patience

[SurvivalWithBushcraf]

Thank those people on behalf of the world.

[beltanebabe55]

I so want to see those ships arrive in Gaza...I hope with all my heart that they do. The people on them are brave and have good souls.

[majikspell1]

There is no reason for the israel terrorist of the universe to think they can do whatever they want to whomever they wish . They are interested only in maintaining the oppression that allows them to live illegally on Palestinian land. The world is waking up! The world is watching! The fictional state of israel is being exposed ! The people of Freedom Flotilla are hero's !

[4MINGTHOUGHTS]

Before anyone starts yelling, " See it wasn't a humanitarian act it was a publicity stunt" let me just say he is right in his statement. Their job is already done even if they don't dock, the world has now seen Israel's true colors in regards to the people in Gaza and that was half the battle. Awareness is also part of a humanitarians job. Period.

[91177info]

I think the people on the ships know that the Israeli masked commandos will be storming them at some time with guns and probably stun grenades as has been reported. So they are probably feeling defeated and a wee bit wary.

We all know you don't waste several years planning a publicity stunt and receiving public donations which you spend on heavy materials, medical supplies, water filtration equipment, school books etc etc.

If you do a publicity stunt you travel light.

[4MINGTHOUGHTS]

@91177info

I totally agree with you. This was not a negative remark it was made to counteract the "Israeli's" who claim this is all PR and no relief is needed. I was just heading off those comments before they rolled in. Sorry if my support at 100% for Gaza didn't shine through the comment :)

@4MINGTHOUGHTS

Yes even if every bit of aid is stopped by Israel we should not stop trying! Publicity is just a bonus but the main mission is to help those poor children who are physically,emotionally and mentally suffering.

[Dragomir995]

@4MINGTHOUGHTS

Despite the facts that israel daily provides more aid than those ships were carrying in total, that Israel followed the Un's laws of maritime actions and waited until the ships were in legal waters for boarding, and that Israel tried to get all the aid that was on the ships into Gaza and was stopped by Hamas, Israel must be the monster because... please finish this sentence because I cannot make sense of it.
