Flotilla Survivors Call Rep Brad Sherman's Bluff Part 1

Part 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PP8_rg2ooQ&feature=PlayList&p=CE07BFA...

Col. Anne Wright (US Army retired) a survivor of the Israeli illegal hijacking on the open seas that killed 9 unarmed humanitarian relief workers and injured scores of others, led a delegation offering themselves up for arrest on Thursday in the Rayburn Congressional Office building. They gathered in the office of Rep. Brad Sherman, D-California who, according to CNN:

"On a conference call organized by the non-profit Israel Project last week, Rep. Brad Sherman, D-California, said that the Justice Department should prosecute any U.S. citizen aboard the well-publicized flotilla that was stopped by the Israeli military on its way to Gaza last week. Nine people were killed in the May 31 incident.
'So what is illegal is helping Hamas,' Sherman said. 'I will be asking the attorney general to prosecute all Americans involved in what was a clear effort to give items of value to a terrorist organization.' "

Sherman called for the arrest and execution of any American who had participated in the flotilla's attempt to deliver medicine, food, and other humanitarian aid to Israeli occupied Gaza. Gazat has been illegally subjected to collective punishment by Israel in the form of what the rogue state calls 'a blockade.' The collective punishment has persisted for over 4 years—with US support—despite being roundly condemned internationally through such organizations as the UN, Red Cross, Amnesty International and many governments worldwide, including Ireland, Turkey . But with Washington's backing, Israel remains recalcitrant, going so far as praising its commandos who pirated the cargo to an Israeli port. after executing 9 unarmed passengers at point blank range with 9mm weapons.

Sherman just introduced the first pro-circumcision bill into the California State Senate. His webpage says he represents the San Fernando Valley, but only 32% of Californians circumcise, and less than 20% in the San Fernano Valley circumcise. You don't represent us Sherman, get out of government!

"No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State."

Am I missing something in translation there, or is Rep. Sherman breaking the supreme law?  Or is it perhaps that the Congress did approve of Israel paying him?
