[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

Are you assuming a full and unbiased reporting of all the relevant facts?

This sounds like a staged event and a PR spin from beginning to end.

Now, I’m not saying you’re wrong. But knowing how the state-run mediots spin stories like these, it has all the makings of a fabricated incident to further isolate Israel and demonize her national defense.

Boarding these ships with commandos was a guaranteed cluster foxtrot, with children used as shields and international film crews sympathetic to the PLO and Hamas.

THere was no way it could work (seizing the bridges AND “after steering”) on all of the ships, with the element of surprise.

It had a ZERO % chance of working, and a 99% chance of total FUBAR.

Which is stupid, when covert technical means could have been used to quietly and invisibly disable the ships far out at sea.

This whole "aid flotilla" was a staged, predictable Pallywood production from the start. The objective was to draw Israeli troops into an inevitable attempt to stop the breaching of the blockade, then to provoke them into violence once onboard. The outcome was inevitable.

I'm quite sure that the ships being searched will be found to be "squeaky clean" of arms and ordnance, because that is part of the script too.

The whole thing was a PR event from the get go. And they have won what they wanted; global condemnation of Israel.

And now we wait for our Community Organizer to "never waste a good crisis", as his good buddy Rahm likes to say.
