Cynthia McKinney kidnapped by Israel in International waters

A humanitarian aid ship which set sail for the Gaza strip has been seized by occupying Israeli forces today. The Israeli military abducted 21 human rights workers from 11 countries including former U.S. Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney and Noble laureate Mairead Maguire. The passengers and crew, though traveling in international waters, were forcibly dragged toward Israel.

Members of the crew are being detained. Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor said Israel was planning to free the crew and passengers. Nobody wants to keep them here, he said. They will be released as soon as they are checked.

This chick's a real whack job, just ask the people who wouldn't vote for her in three different elections in which she lost each time, or even her own political party who wanted nothing to do with her.

Why does Israel do this?

McKinney is outspoken and does not like American taxpayers dollars going to Israels's terrorist war machine without the approval of the American people. McKinney is trying to educate the American people that corrupt politicians are giving Israel hundreds of BILLIONS of U.S. taxdollars AGAINST the will of the American people.

Israel is trying to get even.

That's why.

I side with the Jews on this.

Israel has a history of this kind of thing..The bombing of UN outposts and refugee facilities the bombing of a US ship in '67 which was monitoring Israels illegal incursions into arab territories.. the recent shelling of Gaza and the invasion of lebanon which resulted in 12 billion in damages over a single prisoner.

All under the cover of defence..

you couldn't be more right ! They talk about an abducted 3 year old for 4 months on TV (just like Holloway) and yet we hear nothing about this....pathetic isn't it?

American taxdollars are only for Americans. You seem so free with your money why don't you give some to the 15 MIL unemployed Americans?

We just gave a single company 81 Billion dollars. The 3 Billion were are giving to a whole country (which comes right back to US companies anyways) seems pretty miniscule by comparison.
