Interesting reply Nickbat  :y

This 'peace loving' flotilla of pro-Palestinians had been warned last week NOT to sail into Gaza as it was ILLEGAL but decided in their wisdom to make a stance -

This was taken from The New York Times May 27th 2010.....

Maj. Gen. Eitan Dangot, the Israeli military’s chief liaison with the Palestinian-controlled territories, said Israel’s policy was very clear. Briefing a group of foreign reporters in Tel Aviv this week, he said that Israel had offered the activists the chance to unload their cargo at Ashdod. Israel, he said, would be willing to transfer it, after inspection, to Gaza. But he added, “We will not allow ships to come to Gaza while Hamas is in control there.”

In a news statement issued by Israel’s Foreign Ministry this week, Sarah Weiss Maudi, the ministry’s expert on maritime and humanitarian law, said the maritime blockade was in force “because Israel is currently in a state of armed conflict with the Hamas regime” in Gaza. Hamas, she continued, “has repeatedly bombed civilian targets in Israel proper with weapons that have been smuggled into Gaza by various routes, including the sea.”


Precisely, Eliteomegaman. :y

Unfortunately, Israel is caught between a rock and a hard place. On the one hand it has a legitimate right to defend itself against known smuggling of weapons that are used against it; on the other, it has to battle with a verbose anti-Israeli lobby that will seize on anything to slag it off as a bully. Of course the militants know this dilemma and will play it for all its worth. I'm tempted to add: hence today's events.

Of course, it is worth remembering that, in the defence against militant islamism, Israel is in the frontline. Worth bearing in mind, IMHO.      

Very true indeed & cudn't have put it better myself  :y

ps. As a slightly thick Northerner i keep seeing 'IMHO' on this site & would ask embarrasingly what does it stand for?  :-[ :-[

Yes, indeed. To quote the originator of this post:

"...we see commandos storming one particular ship, that consisted of unarmed oldish men and woman "activists".  Israeli claimed these activists attacked their troops with sticks, axes and "firearms"!!  Oh yeah!!  ::) ::) "

Oh dear. What's that line about rushing in and fearing to tread?  ;) ;D ;D

Hmmmmm the word 'humble' is used by my wife towards me on numerous occasions so i looked it up in the dictionary ....

humble (adjective)
1. A humble person thinks he has VERY LITTLE VALUE!
2. Something that is humble is SMALL or NOT very IMPORTANT!
3. To humble someone means to make them feel HUMILIATED!

TIME ME THINKS TO TRADE HER IN FOR A NEWER & YOUNGER MODEL!!!!  :D ;D :D ;D
