Slingshots VS Helicopters: Smuggled footage from Mavi Marmara Part 1

http://www.culturesofresistance.org/
On the night of Sunday, May 30, showing a terrifying disregard for human life, Israeli naval forces surrounded and boarded ships sailing to bring humanitarian aid to the blockaded Gaza Strip. On the largest ship, the Mavi Marmara, Israeli commandos opened fire on civilian passengers, killing at least 9 passengers and wounding dozens more. Others are still missing. The final death toll is yet to be determined. Cultures of Resistance director Iara Lee was aboard the besieged ship and has since returned home safely.

Despite the Israeli government's thorough efforts to confiscate all footage taken during the attack, Iara Lee was able to retain some of her recordings. Above is 15 minutes of footage from the moments leading up to and during the Israeli commandos' assault on the Mavi Marmara.

@Speedsky ...usually a war is fought between two nations, palestenians are just a bunch of violent backwards muslims who refuse to participate in civil society and therefore israel refuses to tolerate them and is excluding them from society. if the muslims quit firing rockets, quit throwing stones, quit marching in the streets, quit wishing death to everyone that isnt like them, quit trying to force sharia on others, quit putting their women/ girls in black bags..this conflict would be over!

U.N. “found that Israel’s blockade of [Hamas] is LEGAL"

~see THE TELEGRAPH 7-7-11~

"justified in stopping vessels EVEN OUTSIDE ITS TERRITORIAL WATERS"

@StangeWorld0000

The U.N. also changes it opinion about the blockade too often, in 2008 they said, along with the Red Cross, that the blockade is illegal. But before we discuss this further, is israel occupying gaza in your opinion? If not, i would be thankful if you could forward me your argument.

Sidenote: Controlling air and sea space is considered occupation, let alone the monitoring of the taxes.

@StangeWorld0000

I see that i replied to the wrong comment, and i also see that you suddenly pulled a different subject on land.

I discussed this with many other israeli-supporters, but i do not have to say anything to it, because the turkish government does the necessary thing.

Further discussions are unnecessary and a waste of time.

"The naval blockade was

imposed as a legitimate security measure in order to prevent weapons from entering

Gaza by sea and its implementation complied with the requirements of international

law. "
