Well, you should consider what the “aid” might consist of. Also, the World would be better of if “civilian” groups didn’t interfere in touchy situations that could result in war. If war results, part of the responsibility is on the group or groups that decided to launch this flotilla.

they came onto the shop which was carrying terrorist lovers and supplies for Hamas.

The commando.s defended themselves and if any dope form the west was on that ship then they knew full well that this would happen

exactly
Israel said this would happen if they came in those ships.
Israel has a right to stop this.
Terrorist lovers in the west attacked the Israel commando’s as they came on the ship.

As a lover of Israel, I agree with you. This is a sad day.

I wish the press would refer to them correctly as blockade runners.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I love the smell of fake outrage in the morning by terrorist countries. Hypocrites. I am sure the United Nations will be OUTRAGED, as well.

At least Israel can count on the full support of our closet Muslim president during this incident.

Thanks for the info and link. It should be interesting to see what if anything the Bambi does. His leftwing lunatic base is already calling this Israel’s ‘Kent State’ of all things...(eye roll)

Israel takes so much S, that when it finally does put it’s foot down, the media forgets about that and trashes Israel for taking a stand. Israel didn’t cause this. The idiot sticks who forced this situation caused it.

Israel should have boarded each of the ships, and revealed what was on board.

I have zero tolerance for the Palestinian stance on these issues. They have done nothing but instigate trouble for sixty years.

IMO, Israel would be withing it’s rights to just force evacuate the West Bank and Gaza, annex it, and be done with it.

The Palestinians don’t want to live in peace, so screw ‘em. Send ‘em packing. There are countless areas in the Middle-East where they could plant themselves and cause more trouble.

Israel, do what you have to do. And during the process erase every spec of Muslim artifacts in Jerusalem.

They want to play hardball, so lets play hardball.
