I find it sad that a country founded by the survivors and refugees of the holocaust is now engaged in the very sort of prejudice and cruelty that they themselves were once victims of. It just goes to show how hate, fear, and paranoia can create abusers out of victims.

However, in the highly ideological world of NGOs, each organization has clear interests, biases, and agendas. In the NGO community, definitions of key terms, such as “victims” or “violations of international law,” have never been based on consistent, objective, and verifiable criteria. Instead they reflect the entirely subjective political and ideological preferences of their leaders, contributors, and financiers.

Israel is at war with Hamas & after many warnings came onto the boat. All the "activists" had to do was prove what they had on board. If you had an angry mob coming at you with clubs & "kitchen" knives, what would you do to defend yourself?

Listen to Sarah C talking on BBC radio. She contradicts everything you said - she can't answer much in the way of questions at all.

Still nobody explains what they think about Hamas sitting on the "aide". That is just swept under the carpet.

@GrangeHillStuff I like to see what you would do if in the middle of the night intruders came in to your home, with guns. Would you not try to defend yourself and family and home, would you not struggle and try to ward off the intruders with anything you can find? This is no different, Two people had been killed even before commandos landed on the boat, how brilliant of the Israelis potraying themsleves as the victims in an edited 'attack video'.

@61talya

Yes, it was hysterical. She dropped herself right in it.

@61talya

Well the "activists" certainly weren't against using violence, who knows what they would have done in the Gaza Strip. Actually, no problem, because Hamas wouldn't let them in anyway - has this so-called aid of expired medication actually got to the people of Gaza yet or is Hamas still sitting on them? Why aren't people protesting about that?

[61talya]

@GrangeHillStuff almost 600 people were detained in Israel around a week, and not one was arrested for terrorism, but I am sure now that Israel is 'investigating itself' withan independant probe, they will suddenly come up with a few!
