Israel Conducts ‘Fly-Out’ for Flotilla Activists
Arutz Sheva ^ | 20/7/11 | Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu

Posted on 07/20/2011 10:55:36 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

Israel has turned the tables on flotilla activists and is conducting a “fly-out” deportation of activists who tried to sail to Gaza Wednesday, less than two weeks after a “fly-in” by activists succeeded in little more than gaining a blub in the media.

One of the pro-Hamas supporters who was on the “fly-in” will participated in the “fly-out” Wednesday after the Interior Ministry completes deportation procedures.

The 15 foreigners aboard the French "Dignity” boat were stopped en route to Gaza by Navy commandos, who overtook the boat without opposition and brought the crew and passengers to the port of Ashdod. One person already has been flown out of the country. Most of the passengers are French, and others came from Canada, Sweden and Greece.

Also on board was Israeli journalist Amira Hess, who writes for the left-wing Ha'aretz newspaper. She was released.

The Dignity was one of an original flotilla of 10 ships scheduled to try to break Israel’s maritime embargo on Hamas-controlled Gaza, where the terrorist organization has smuggled, by land and sea, hundreds of tons of explosives for missiles and suicide bombs, advanced weapons and terrorists.

Greece had placed its own embargo on Gaza-bound ships on the grounds that aiding Hamas, outlawed by the United States and a declared enemy of its ally Israel, is a provocation and a probable violation of international law.

Ship them to Xinjiang province. I'm sure the PRC will appreciate their courage and brave stand for human rights, and start making nice to the Uighur immediately.

May I be the first to suggest the fly out be done using a trebuchet. So they can do a Corrie when they land.

I think the hippie generation and their Marxist kids need a name more descriptive than “activist.” Activist sounds to positive. How about a Freeper contest? I’ll start with:
Politojerks,
Politicalnonothings,
Useful Idiots,
Just for a little while they should be forced to live as inmates of the type of world they’d make for us all. Let’s say Cuba takes them in as base-level citizens. One year there without the privilege our society has bread into them should be a graduate level education.

Thanks Eleutheria5.
