We are constantly running into the same cast of shady characters and Obama's friends

Weather Underground bomb Bill Ayers, his wife Bernadine Dohrn, and top campaign bundler Jodie Evans from Code Pink are top activists with the Gaza flotilla group that attacked the IDF.

The group behind the Gaza flotilla that engaged in deadly clashes with Israeli commandos today counts among its top supporters the friends and associates of President Barack Obama, namely the founders of the Weather Underground terrorist organization, William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, as well as Jodie Evans, the leader of the radical activist organization Code Pink.

Earlier today, Israeli navy commandos raided the six-ship flotilla, encountering heavy resistance and live fire from the activists. Several activists were killed and dozens of others were reportedly injured, as were several of the Israeli commandos.

The flotilla was organized by the Free Gaza Movement, a coalition of leftist human rights activists and pro-Palestinian groups engaged in attempts to break a blockade imposed by Israel on the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.

Ayers, Dohrn and Evans' Code Pink have led several recent Free Gaza Movement initiatives, including attempted marches into the Gaza Strip. Dorhn was in the Middle East just last month on behalf of the movement.

Thats funny, so the flotilla is the one who attacked the IDF commandos ???????

as i recall, the flottilla was more than 70 miles away from israel, thats called international waters, and IDF has no authority there, so trying to get on the ships, is a piracy and criminal act.

Did I miss the part in the OP where it said the "flotilla had attacked the commandos"? Don't recall seeing that.

The flotilla was announced as having the express purpose of running the legitimate Israeli blockade of Gaza. That comprises an attack on Israel. The IDF was fully justified in stopping and boarding the ships, having a justifiable suspicion that the ships were carrying war materials to people who kept attacking Israel. And then, you may recall, the people on one of the ships attacked the Israeli commandos who boarded. On the rest of the ships, remember, the blockade runers did not attack the Israeli commandos, and so the commandos never opened fire and no one was hurt.

Don't want to get boarded? Don't run a blockade.

Of course, getting boarded (or worse) was the exact purpose of the flotilla from the get-go, not bringing in supplies. Note that when the Israelis offered to bring those supplies to an Israeli port, inspect them, and then bring them to the Gaza residents... the Gaza government (Hamas) refused the supplies.

Bringing in supplies was never its purpose. Provoking Israel to do something rash (such as shelling or sinking the blockade runners) was the purpose of the flotilla... and it failed. Israel did nothing but stop and board the ships, a universally accepted way (except by terrorists) of dealing with blockade runners worldwide. They did not fire on any of the people on any of the ships once they boarded, except on one ship where the blockade runners attacked them first. The supplies were merely a smokescreen, a cover to fake legitimacy, as the Hamas govt showed later.

Nice try. But if you want to denigrate and vilify Jews, you'll have to do better than that.
