Jihadist On Libyan Gaza-Bound Amalthea Ship: "We'd Love To Die As Shahids"

When Israel intercepted the Turkish flotilla two months ago, it took five or six news cycles before the media's beatific unarmed activists were proven to be lunatic death-worshiping jihadists. By then the anti-Israel narrative had already hardened though Reuters kept trying to hide the evidence and the New York Times continued hyperventilating about how "angry Israeli commandos" turned a "ship of protesters into a bloodbath" - just in case.Now there's this Libyan Amalthea, which may or may not end up reaching Israel. If it does, and if there's a confrontation, the media coverage will be exactly the same. Except in this case, there's already tape on the whole lunatic death-worshiping jihadists thing, courtesy of an Al Jazeera interview with one of the passangers. Here then, is the evidence that the media will be ignoring tomorrow, today.
