http://mobile.twitter.com/freegazaorg#freegazaorg Call the State Department 202 647 4000 and ask them what they are going to do about this attack and the American flagged boat
19:51 GMT UK Foreign Secretary Hague has failed to condemn the massacre, calling instead for further 'investigation'. No mention of the fact that this was a military assault in international waters by one of the mightiest military machines on the planet. A state armed to the teeth with a license to kill by the US (and shamefully the EU and UK too) that has killed at least 19 civilians delivering aid to a people blockaded and bombed by a government and state with a colonial imperative. And by the scenes at the quayside at Ashdod of Palestinian women who live inside Israel (Arab Israelis) being racially abuse by a nascent lynch mob, this colonial mindset is increasingly nourished by a growing and deep anti-Arab racism among Israeli Jews. But among increasing numbers of Jewish people in the west, the crimes of Israel are unbearable. Which is why many of the leaders of the Gaza convoy are American Jews. This was Israel's Soweto. The naked barbarity played out over the past few hours puts on display to the world the logic of the Zionist project in Palestine - you can't steal a people's land without dehumanizing and killing them. Israel must be made to pay the price so that all the tens of thousands that have died in the cause of Palestinian liberation haven't done so in vain.

check your sources, your "facts" are so hopelessly incorrect, number of dead being one of them. No wonder if you get you info from Al-Jazeera.
ReplyDeleteBTW, when the infamous humanitaian aid finally arrived at Gaza, Hamas sent it away, how ironic isn't it?
