Jewish Activists Sail Toward Gaza (to break Israeli blockade)
New York Times ^ | September 27, 2010 | ROBERT MACKEY

Jewish activists from the United States, Britain, Germany and Israel, determined to break the Israeli naval blockade of Gaza, are sailing toward the Palestinian territory in a catamaran carrying humanitarian aid.

If the 10 passengers and crew members manage to dodge the Israel Defense Forces, they should land in Gaza on Tuesday.

Marion Kozak, the mother of the new leader of Britain’s opposition Labour Party, Ed Miliband, is a prominent member of Jews for Justice for Palestinians, one of the groups supporting the ship. Ms. Kozak survived the Nazi occupation of Poland and is a well-known human rights activist.

Mr. Miliband, who told London’s Evening Standard last month, “Obviously I’m Jewish, it is part of my identity, but not in a religious sense,” has been outspoken in his opposition to the blockade of Gaza by Israel. His older brother, David, served as foreign minister in the previous Labour government. In an interview this month, Ed Miliband said that British foreign policy in the region should not be too influenced by American policy telling Politics.co.uk:

[O]n the Middle East and Israel-Palestine, they’re always going to have their particular view. We’ve got to have our particular view. So I was certainly outspoken at the time about the attack on the Gaza flotilla. We need to do that. The Gaza blockade needs to be lifted.

According to a statement on the Web site Jewish Boat to Gaza, the voyage of the British-flagged ship, called the Irene, “is a symbolic act of protest against the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories and the siege of Gaza, and a message of solidarity to Palestinians and Israelis who seek peace and justice.”

In other words, “don’t blow us out of the water.”

If the “Jews” are so for Palestinian and Israeli solidarity, they should sell their houses overlooking the sea and move to Gaza.

"Obviously I’m Jewish, it is part of my identity, but not in a religious sense..."

Tells you everything you need to know right there. This person's religion is not Judaism; it is far more likely One-world Socialism.

Except for Jewish human rights. In that case......not so much.

Will anyone be shocked if Palestinians board the ship and kill these stupid but well meaning Jews? Or perhaps they will co-opt them into some anti-Israel propaganda.

I glanced through the article and I noticed self hater, Tony Judt, passed away.

He was so afraid that Israeli policies would result in him getting attacked. Now, he doesn't have to live in fear any longer.

As I’ve said on each of the others: sink the thing at the first legal moment. Do not try to board it.

Don’t forget Saul Alinsky and Karl Marx, but I guess you wanted to use living examples. They are still jerks in progress.

These Jewish activists are making a serious tactical error. Sane people know that these are appeaser scum and want the Israelis to sink the boat on sight. The anti-semites these activists have aligned with won't even be able to fake outrage if they all get killed. Israel could put that vessel and all it's passengers on the bottom of the sea and the only people it would matter to are those on the boat.
