The "Free Gaza" flotilla was far more than a collection of in nocent "peace activists" try ing to provide humanitarian aid to Gaza. Most passengers may have been nonviolent -- but a significant minority were anything but.

The passengers reportedly included 100-plus members of various Muslim Brotherhood chapters, at least 20 of whom taped al Qaeda-style "martyr" videos before embarking.

Suppose Israel had sent a boat of aid to the Kurds?

Typical of the PA, the Arabs, the Jihadists is to create a scene to stir up public opinion in their favor. The trick is old, and if it weren’t for the media, the trick would be too old to work anymore ala the boy that cried Wolf.

Israel’s former ally, the USA, has provided nearly unimaginable aid to the Kurds.

The muslim allies of the Palestinians will NEVER help a Jew.

Like creating a crossfire with a father trying to protect his son who is subsequently shot and killed in the process. Magic bullet theory principle.

Just kill the terrorist savages, each and every last one of ‘em. If they want to be martyrs, we should be helping them achieve their goals in every way possible.

Concur. The problem is the rest of the world is all to happy to ignore the facts and pile on the criticism. Its sickening to see Israel get worse press than the likes of Iran and NK. Tells you a lot about our World, don’t it?

And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.

Amen brother, the PPK is Turkey’s Ham-as/Hezbollah. If they don’t have any ocean ports, Israel should airdrop “humanitarian aid”. People living in glass houses shouldn’t throw rocks.

Love boat? no, 'a hate death boat' ...

Any boat sent to help the Kurds would be completely destroyed by jihadis long before it even came close.

There wasn’t a civilian or innocent person on that boat.

They were all terrorists and the boat should have been sunk in deep water.

The terrorists staged this theatrical performance in hopes that Israel would do exactly what they did.

The question is why Israel played along. In general terms, it’s seldom a good idea to give an eneme what he wants.

Unfortunately, it is landlocked.

We should sponsor a free Kurdistan. They would hold all the oil producing areas...

Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria would have to each give up some territory.
