The INTENT was the same. The flotilla PLANNED this in advance. They were surprised in the darkness of the night by an advanced opponent. The IDF were attacked as they dropped to the deck to inspect the vessel with less than lethal weapons. Look at the videos. Look at all of them. The IDF has documented their actions and the actions of the flotilla for all to see. Now let’s see who lies.

I guess most people don´t care who lies.
Fact is Israel violated international law.
This will not go away no matter who lies.
(and more important there was no need to violate this law)
Fact is what Israel has done is piracy under international law. And this is just stupid!!!!
Lets assume they had arms and fires at the IDF.
No problem as long the IDF raids them in teritorial waters.
(they have every right to kill anyone who attacks them).
But in international waters the IDF is the attacker and there for the crew has any right to defend themselfes.
So even if they had fired on the IDF israel would be the bad guy because they attacked them first.
And sorry to say but this is beyond stupid especially when you only have to wait a few hours and then the actions of the IDF would have been perfectly legal even if they would have killed every single person on this ship.
