What purpose is served by a blockade of humanitarian aid? I don't get it. What is Israel afraid of that they would blockade humanitarian help for Gaza??? I just don't understand these people.

??????

Anybody know what Israel's rationale is for the blockade?

I find it interesting that the western media has not picked up on this story at all.

The answer is genocide of all Palestinians. The ZPC has no concern if the Palestinians are Muslim, Christian or Jew. the goal is to get rid of Palestinians.

It seems the prison camp conditions of Gaza are to push the Palestinians into violence and allowing the Zionist Pork Chops to massacre Palestinians and call it self protection.

This is what most westerners fail to grasp; the Zionists leave Palestinians absolutely no choice but to resort to violence. This is exactly what these criminals want in order to continue their occupation and terror. It's a Satanic game.

The white male said "All arabs should die so the world could be in peace" and etc etc. The worker is a non-muslim, but he was defending the Turkish Flotilla alhamdulillah. I like when I meet people like him in USA, because it shows atleast there are some people with Aql in the west. :w:

Israeli soldiers board Gaza-bound aid ship

The MV Rachel Corrie is carrying some 750 tonnes of aid heads towards the blockaded Gaza Strip.

Israeli forces have seized an Irish-owned ship bound for Gaza, boarding the Rachel Corrie close to the Gaza shore.

"The ship has been boarded and there was full compliance from the crew and passengers on board," a spokeswoman for the Israeli Defence Force (IDF) said.

The IDF says no helicopters were used and there were no reports of violence.

It says the boat will be brought to Ashdod Port where goods will be inspected and transferred to Gaza via land crossings.

The move came after the Rachel Corrie refused to respond to four requests from the navy to head for the southern Israeli port of Ashdod, and stayed its course for the Gaza Strip.

The Irish-owned vessel - named after American pro-Palestinian activist Rachel Corrie, who was killed in the Gaza Strip in 2003 - has 11 passengers on board.

It is carrying tonnes of aid for Gaza, including cement, which Israel bans because of concerns it could be used to produce weapons.

Before the boat was seized, IDF spokeswoman Lieutenant Colonel Avital Leibovich told the group they must come to Israel if they want the aid to make it to Gaza.

"If the goal of this flotilla, or this boat specifically, is to bring material into Gaza then we have no problem, but why do it the illegal way?" she said.

"There is a marine blockade around Gaza, and not for just the fun of it. Only six months ago we found a civilian ship coming from Iran here to Ashdod Port filled with munitions and weaponry."

The apparently peaceful ending to the standoff comes just five days after the Israeli naval commandos raided another aid ship heading for Gaza.

The operation left nine foreign activists dead and scores wounded, including seven Israeli soldiers.

Another aid ship on way to Gaza

Nine activists were killed when Israeli military raided an aid ship trying to break the Gaza siege [Reuters]

Malaysia's government has urged Israel not to take any action that could harm people aboard a Malaysian-funded Irish aid ship, now heading to Gaza.

The MV Rachel Corrie is carrying 11 activists, including Mairead Corrigan, a Nobel Peace laureate, and eight crew members, just days after another aid vessel was boarded by Israeli soldiers who killed nine activists.

Anifah Aman, Malaysia's foreign affairs minister, said in a statement issued late on Thursday that the Israeli authorities should ensure a safe passage for the vessel to Gaza to deliver the humanitarian cargo.

The Rachel Corrie is funded by Perdana Global Peace Organisation, a Malaysian non-governmental organisation headed by Mahathir Mohamad, the country's former prime minister.

The vessel hoped to arrive in Gaza on Saturday with a cargo of humanitarian aid.

Safe passage sought

Shamsul Akmar, one of the activists aboard the ship, told Al Jazeera that all the people on board are all peace activists.

"We do not know what to expect, but hope that we will be given safe passage to get the aid to Gaza," he said.

Despite fears of an Israeli attack, the peace activists are determined to try and break through the blockade.

"If the Israeli army attacks us and tries to board our ship, we will not attempt any resistance," Shamsul said.

"We will take our boat, as far as possible and if they do come on board forcefully, we will not resist."

The ship is named after an American woman who was killed by an Israeli military bulldozer in the Gaza Strip in 2003, while trying to protest a house demolition.

Brian Cowen, the Irish prime minister, asked Israel to permit the Irish-owned aid ship to dock in Gaza.

Israeli offer

Israel has offered to escort the vessel and deliver the civilian aid for it and said Egypt was prepared to do the same.

But the activists said that they were concerned that not all cargo would be delivered.

The ship has medical equipment, school supplies and cement, a material Israel has banned from entering Gaza.

Avigdor Lieberman, the Israeli foreign minister, said that Israel would not allow its Gaza blockade to be breached.

"No ship will reach Gaza. The Rachel Corrie will not reach Gaza," he told Israel Radio.

Mathias Chang, an activist from the Perdana Global Peace Organisation on board the ship, said that they were aware of the risk that the Israelis may intercept them, but were still determined to go ahead.

"We have told the whole world, and we have told the Israeli media and television, that we are peace activists," Chang said.

"If and when they intercept us, we will be waiting on the top deck of the ship, with nothing but the clothes on our backs."

screw that turd of a colonial zionist settler state, who are they to block aid to anyone.. There is no time for peace with these turds, and the American kid who went unmentioned with four bullets in his head should really echo the kind of sick thoughtless pigs that they are with positively no regard for human life..

let's do our part and pray to God around their clock for their demise insha'Allah..they are a kind of cancer that doesn't belong to society if society wants to live in peace!

Someone should remind these thugs that Hamas and the Palestinian people under international law have every right to oppose the Zionist occupation. The United Nations Charter states:

(UN Charter art. 51) (6). The right to resist finds application within the framework of the right of legitimate defense because "a state which forcibly subjugates a people to colonial or alien domination is committing an unlawful act as defined by international law, and the subject people, in the exercise of its inherent right of self-defense, may fight to defend and attain its right to self-determination."(7)

There really is nothing to argue, of course they will say that Hamas attacks civilians. Why don't you give them advanced weapons then so they can target enemy soldiers?

This is what I hate so much about westerners, this female reporter says that this incident has "further radicalized these people". Apparently they are too blind to see that the Israelis and westerners are the radicals and fanatics and warmongers, Muslims are the victims of their terror. This attitude is disgusting, attack and kill people, occupy their lands and then shamelessly label them as "radicals". Shame on all westerners with this mindset.

There is no information how many victims there really was as some released activists have told that zionists throw many bodies to sea. Nobody knows were they died or still alive but wounded.

Knowing mentality of those zionist murderers everything is prossible.
 
This is how zionists want others to see all this happening:

Israeli Commando Who Killed Six Aid Workers to Receive Medal
Staff Sergeant Brags of Role in Massacre
Jason Ditz

June 4, 2010

Autopsies are coming out today revealing some details about the circumstances of the Israeli attack which left at least nine aid workers dead. Doctors say that several of the victims were shot in the head and that in at least one case the gun was just inches from the aid worker’s head when fired.

But additional information is also coming in in the form of a report from an unnamed Israeli staff-sergeant, who claims proudly to have single-handedly killed at least six of the civilian aid workers.

The staff-sergeant says he has no doubt everyone on board was a "terrorist" and claimed there were secretly dozens of "hardcore mercenaries" on board.

The staff-sergeant’s story is being well received in Israel, where the killings have been lionized by a sympathetic media and by government officials eager to cash in on the latest jingoist craze. He is now being praised for "stabilizing the situation" and is being considered for a medal of valor for his killings.

The Israeli military insists that, far from the straightforward massacre of civilians that it appears to be, they are the victims of a massive conspiracy to frame them, and that 50 "well trained" Turks with communication devices, who they said were likely ex-military, were on board shooting and throwing grenades at them. The fact that no grenades or guns or communication devices or, indeed, "terrorists" were found on board is being claimed as another coverup, that after the massacre the "terrorists" somehow had the presence of mind to throw all the evidence overboard. Exactly how they all disappeared themselves in unclear, but not a single captive was charged with any crime.

Spanish activists for Gaza say Israel "targeted" Muslims in boat

Three Spanish citizens, who survived the Israeli operation on Gaza-bound aid ship, thanked Turkish government for its efforts.

The Spanish citizens including two volunteers and a journalist arrived in Barcelona on Friday.

Volunteer Laura Arau told reporters that they were able to leave Israel thanks to initiatives of Turkey, adding that Turkey paid their hotel expenses in Istanbul and bought plane tickets for Spain.

Also, Spanish journalist David Segarra said that Israel attacked citizens from 50 countries who aimed to extend humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Volunteer Manuel Tapial said that before they left for Gaza, they asked the UN to check the materials in the ships and also wanted politicians and governments to take measures however, nothing was made. Tapial said that they talked with some European friends in Istanbul, and they wanted to send another aid flotilla to Gaza within the next 4-5 months.

Telling his worst moment in the ship, Tapiel said that Israeli soldiers raided the ship and gathered everybody on the deck and handcuffed them. He added that the soldiers made Muslims kneel down, while offering benches to Europeans which was a racist approach.

On Monday, Israeli staged an operation against aid flotilla on its way to Gaza, killing nine people on board, eight Turkish citizen and an American of Turkish descent.
On June 2, two days after the Israeli raid, two military ambulance planes brought 19 injured activists back to Turkey.

Three Turkish Airlines (THY) planes, carrying activists who were detained by Israeli authorities, landed in Istanbul early on June 3.

The planes, carrying 466 activists as well as bodies of nine people who were killed in the attack, landed at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport at short intervals on June 3.

Turkey strongly protested Israel and recalled its ambassador.

By the international laws of shipping (Law of the Sea) those ships were sailing under flag of Turkey at the international waters and by this reason they were counted as territory of Turkey nation. Instead to give medal to this murderer he should extradite as a criminal to police of Turkey and they should sue him to court about killing six citizens of Turkey.

Have you ever heard that this terrorist nation of Israhell respects any kind of laws? I haven´t.

Well. Yes. But the answers to these questions are very simple. I can actually give a simple answer
that would not require any war.

Israel Rules a big part of the world.

Muslims also rule the world. In fact a lot of it.

This is beacuse these two are related in a very special way to each other.
A way that does not require a war.

However, there are many who do not want to see the true solution
being initiated - and this is why we have the war.

The war is simply a deception - an attempt to make two forces which
should work together fight against each other.

I would advise everybody here to think about this point as it is very
very important - as you can for sure understand.
