Was Cynthia McKinney on board? Not this time, I suspect. I read about her attending some Black Panther / Blame Whitey rally a few days ago, just about the time the flotilla departed Cyprus.

On Sunday, Huwaida Arraf, one of the organizers, said, "We fully intend to go to Gaza regardless of any intimidation or threats of violence against us," she said. "They are going to have to forcefully stop us."

Both the Fox News article and the Associated Press article are the same. Associated Press requires all of their material to be excerpted.

==If they sank a boat with McKinney aboard or allowed McKinney to hit the water, they’re guilty of worse pollution than the BP oil leak.==

From the Jerusalem Post:
"Passengers tried to grab weapons away from soldiers boarding the Gaza protest flotilla, starting the violence, Army Radio reported Tuesday morning, responding to accusations that Israeli commandos assaulted the ships guns blazing."
No matter how it happened, Israel will be the bad guys. As if Israel didn't have enough problems already.

That is not an attack, thats a boarding. Our Coast Guard does it all the time.
