Is Israel guilty of piracy? Watch the video and decide for yourself how many international and maritime laws Israel has broken. The Israeli navy hijacked the Spirit of Humanity in international waters. The Israeli government hijacks Palestinian fishing boats, in Palestinian territorial waters, kidnaps the fishermen, and sends its military out to shoot to wound and kill them as they struggle to make a living. After watching this video, you will be convinced that Israel has committed acts of piracy against Palestinians and against internationals. No other country would be allowed to do what Israel does on a daily basis.


The International Solidarity Movement (ISM) volunteers were accompanying fishermen to document attacks on them by the Israeli Navy, and to provide a deterrence to these attacks. (www.palsolidarity.org)

  • I have added this very informative video to my blog and added the link for the fishingunderfire blog in my Take Action section. I will also be dedicating a complete section to all the crimes that the Zionists are committing. We will see justice done, and I am still pushing for War Crimes trials on Israeli government officials and their JDF.

  • Thank you minstral2. This is exactly what Palestinians need, our help to divulgate information and our action to have their human rights back. This is what the international community should stand for. Since it's not, we , the citizend of the world, must act to inform and push.

  • Thank you Truegret, we fully agree that this comment by bilalsthewise is a vile one.

    Though we leave it here, as evidence of what you are correctly saying. This is part of the attacks we receive, we know already. And now, it will be evident to everybody.

    PALESTINIANs ARE PEACEFUL PEOPLE they are JUST ASKING for THEIR RIGHTS BACK.

    AND WE ARE PEACIFUL ACTIVISTS THAT WILL HELP THEM TO GET THEIR RIGHTS BACK.

    We will remove all further comments asking for violent actions.

  • We kindly invite to watch the videos contained in the playlist shown in our home page, PALESTINIAN VOICES, interviews with Palestinian people, they are telling us clearly what they need: their lifes back,. they do not hate anyone, they just seek for justice. Let's help them avoiding to fail into unuseful violent wording , even here, as comments. We strongly believe in non violent actions and determination.

  • This is pure thuggish and evil. There is no mention of this in any media while a small teenage Somali "pirate" gets so much notorietary and condemnation from US president.

  • I wonder who the real pirates are these days. This is so hypocritical...... I guess that's why America is in Afghanistan for two plain crashes and whatever else happend? right? to protect the country? Stop being silly people...... Charity starts at home. And you people knew what you are getting yourselves into before you went over there, You kinda just asked for it and only tell one part of the story.....

  • Prophecy is far easier than thinking.

    Yahweh is Allah. Get used to it.

  • My god, Isareli navy living out some Rambo/ SAS fantasy; arent they hard firing on un- armed civilians. I suppose we should thank the Israeli draft for allowing these inbred, zenophobes a constructive outlet for their master race complex. One day the shoe will be on the other foot.

  • The "god " of this chosen people musta be very outa his mind .Chosing this kind of people to be the chosen one..!!

    Shame on you bllody god this Cruel people who call themselves israelis.

    We the other human being call this peoples the "Pariah jews"..

    If they waited for 5000yrs for their promised land..!

    The Palestinains gonna to claims ,what ever II theirs ..less than 1000yrs. And that is the prophehcy.period.

  • What ever you see is a small portion of what

    what so called Israel is doing to the Palestinains people, What goes around comes around.

  • It does appear that they are becoming more desperate and paranoid, how wonderful that the "talkbackers" campaign has turned out to be a fabulously, unintentional disaster for israel. If you go on gaza-the killing zone, they are there by the minutes spouting hateful rascism shrouded in sudo-religious nonsense. Israeli people need to get rid of the lunatics running their country before its too late... the world is watching like never before.

  • You're the only 'Nazi' here. You don't even know what constitutes a 'people' and you don't even understand what made the 'Nazis' who they were.

    Just look at your own psychotic page. You're full of hate and ignorance. You're just a troll.

  • Daumen,,,Falastin

  • So now we have another apologist for Israel's crimes. They must be really scared if they send people out like this poster who can't spell, can't punctuate and doesn't know how to write a complete sentence. Sad for the Zionists, that they have stooped so low. The really sad thing is that they say the same thing over and over, hoping if they babble long enough, people will believe them. But the tides are changing. The truth about what Israel has done to the Palestinians is finally being told.

  • It is almost comical, the talkbackers activities. I suppose they are trying the mainstream media tried and tested method of repeat, ad nauseum, until believed or becomes "facts on the ground" (what a disgusting, dismissive term for imperialism). Propoganda from these israelis only reinforces the facts the world already knows, that they try to blame anyone/anything but themselves for their crimes and it is usually the dead victims. Viva Palestina.Peace.
