Corrie: Gaza blockade ill-conceived and illegal

Pro-Palestinian activists intended on breaking a three year blockade of the Hamas ran Gaza strip. As the waters calm down, it seems that Israel is trying to stay afloat with condemnation coming from the International community. Craig Corrie says he doesn't think that the United States has not done enough, including bringing aid to Gaza.

The UN commission of inquiry set up by Ban Ki-moon, and headed by Geoffrey Palmer, a former New Zealand prime minister, concludes that the blockade of Gaza is not illegal and that Israel is justified in stopping vessels even outside its territorial waters.

@bashie34 dude have you got any idea gow much rockets are sent per day? have you an idea how complex and expensive is a defense equipment against these stuff?

i do agree there must be a Palestine continent but not instead of israel.

[bashie34]

Israel is JOKE . They are a super power and want the world to think they can't stop rockets being fired from slingshots , sure Israel . Why does the world need to recognize Israel as state ?This is the same as asking a victim of theft to recognize the rights of the thief to what was stolen. By the way Israel and its puppets listen and listen well. If Israel has the right to exist , so do everyone else on this planet , simply hey.

@kreplach3 I know what Israel has done, I also know that the course that your country is taking right now leaves very little rooms for co-existence you place puppet regimes in your neighboring countries and kill leaders of their people. the only thing that you are doing is creating a blood feud that will never end and that your children and their children will pay for. right now Israel has the power to establish its self as a country of decent people, instead of a bloody tyrant. good luck.

@kreplach3 what did Israel do? the USS Liberty, the lebenov a fair in both cases you targeted American citizen to incite America into going to war with Egypt. you have taken most of the land of the Palestinian people , you have placed countless number of shrapnel bombs on the border of Lebanon that has killed hundreds of children, you have purposely attacked school and UN safe havens and killed thousands of civilians. you are trying to invade Iran. the list goes on and on.

@kreplach3 everyone who speaks against ur fascist dictatorship is an antisemite fuck the antisemite argument if thats the only thing Ur gonna bring to the table go fuck yourself. Israel has been doing things that most nation would never get a way with they say the support democracy yet when a people choose their leadership they punish them. people also forget that it was the Jews that started communism and to some degree fascism. the Jewish occupation of Palestine and the united states must end

@kreplach3 When the person on here made the statement the Jews give a lot to charity, do you think I thought that he meant ALL JEWS. No, I have the common sense to know that the guy was generalizing.

I know that there are poor Jews around the world. Use a little more sense b4 you start chattering next time.

@kreplach3 Go back and find where I stated that ALL JEWS ARE RICH.

I said that Jews have all the money. It is only right that they should share.

I was being hyperbolic. I know that JEWS don't have ALL the MONEY. And, I definitely never said that ALL JEWS ARE RICH.

@kreplach3 How was it a typo? In the context in which you wrote it, you made it seem like you were talking about "shares" of stock.

It wasn't a typo. But, you may have misunderstood what I had written. Therefore, you answered my statement incorrectly. You said, "where are my shares?" Even if you take the "s" off of it, you are still asking, "where is my share?" Either way u must be talkin about your share of money.
