1. I do not understand why the slow response from our Administration for the atrocity committed by the Pariah state of Israel. I Am sure AIPAC has crafted and delivered the American response to the White House, Rahm Emanuel can read Hebrew?

2. This comment was copied from the LA times of today.

   “I hope poor victims of this massacre do not get their human organs stolen by Israelis, as this is a normal practice of Israeli soldiers and always encouraged by their clergymen.I call upon all victim’s relatives to check their bodies before burial”.

3. This Administration has been hijacked by the Zionist (fake)
   Jews and has no intention to serve the American People. They are ruthless killers and everything that stands in their way is bound to be eliminated. They got the President, the Judges and the Media in their back pocket and while most of us are asleep,they will take over this country bit by bit the same as Hitler once did.

4. Fuuny how all the eyewitness testimony is so different from the israeli and the bought and sold out american main stream media. Lets see, whom shall we believe, the eye witness who was there or the zionist controled media? The world should get together and stomp on the zionist. Free Palistine!

6. A call should go out to organise a 10,000 boat flotilla of private boat owners. Anyone with the means and ability should ship out with food and medicine.
   How on earth could israel respond to that?
   Is there a more obvious next move?

7. This case remind me to an event, many years ago. On June 8, 1967, there was another ship, floating in international waters. This vessel, the USS Liberty, was in fact a spy vessel 12 1/2 miles north of the Sinai Peninsula. This ship was stationed in this region because 8 June was also the fourth day of the Six Day War, a war between Israel, Egypt, Syria and Jordan. The assignment of the USS liberty was, to gather information about the progress of the war. This vessel was equiped with (for that time) the most sophisticated spy equipment.Except four machine guns of 50 caliber, the USS Liberty had no weapons on board. It had also a big American flag, the Star and Stripes, in top. The weather on that day was shiny, without any fog or clouds, so, the sight was perfect.

   Beginning at dawn however, the Israeli air force commenced a surveillance mission of six hours by air jets. The known sign of the Star of David was clearly visible on their wings. Those jets flew at a very low level, almost 200 feet, so the Stars and Stripes was very clearly visible. The pilots knew not only that the vessel was of American origine, but they knew also that it was the USS Liberty.

   At 2:00 in the afternoon however, there appeared mysterious, unmarked fighter jets (Mystere and Mirage III jets) wich began with an attack on the USS Liberty. The first thing what they did, was destroy the guns and the antennas of the ship. While the sailors looked for cover, some of them hoisted another flag because the firts one was ripped of by the bullets of the jets. But this flag was also destroyed. The planes did not only use bullets but also rockets and napalm. When this was over, the attack was taken over by torpedo boats; four of the torpedo’s missed their goal, the fifth however hit the machine room.

   Later, it became clear that those unmarked jets where, in fact, Israeli fighting jets wich had held their identity hidden. And the true reason of the attacks became also clear: The government of Israel was afraid that the USS LIberty had possibly gathered intelligence about the execution of 1000 unarmed Egyptian prisoners of war by Israelian soldiers. They became scared by the thought that this atrocity would eventually become known to the world. The next goal for the attack was that Egypt would get the blame for it. When the Israeli’s had succeeded, this had brought the United States in the war in the Middle East on the side of Israel. And this brutal act would have possibly caused World War III. So, the intention of Israel was, to sink the Liberty with all on board.

   And this is just one of the many examples, my friends, about how Israel thinks about their most trusted ally. For more detailled documentation, for example about the cover up by the American and Israelian government that followed on the onslaught, read the book “Ship Without a Country; Eyewitness Accounts of the Attack on the USS LIberty” by Victor Thorn & Mark Glenn, American Free Press 2009.

8. Golda Meir once said “when (the Arabs) will love their children more than they hate us (Israel)’ that is when there will be peace.

   The Government of Gaza is at war with Israel,specifically stating that the goal of Hamas is the TOTAL destruction of Israel. Should not there be a blockade?. Think about the Kennedy’s blockade of Cuba, the blockades of Iraq, Iran, North Korea, War world 1, War world 2,Cyprus , the blockade and attack of the Kurds by the Turks, etc etc etc. According to you, pro poor Palestinian, Israel have no right to defend itself by blockading their enemy. If it was up to me…well that is another subject.

   • Cohen,

     I think what you are attempting to state is that your Israeli government is making war on Gaza.

     Hamas has offered a decade long truce.

     The Zionists in Israel persist in criminal aggression. But of course that is their ideology.
