there ought to be some organized international effort to search the ships to just make sure they aren’t carrying weopons or bunker building material, but allow food and medical supplies in. It would be brilliant for the gaza independence forces to create a bad incident like this which I think they have. Why can’t we in the world be more proactive in preventing this? The gaza independence forces primary goal is the removal of the State of Israel, obviously, and the only way to attempt to do ths is to shame its backers, like the U.S. with a bad scandal. I do think its true that Israel militarists have lost the common man’s tounch and are becoming insensitive to the human tragedy going on in Gaza. Of course this comes from endless confrontations with an implacable devious enemy. all I can add, its such a mess. Israel loses much needed points on the world stage here.

“According to Cambridge University Professor George Joffee, Iran’s relationship with Hamas began in the 1990s; it was around this time that Iran’s interest in exporting revolution coincided with Hamas’ rejection of compromise with Israel. Iran has been alleged to provide funding and training for Hamas since the 1990s, but the extent of either is unknown. However, Iran did pledge to help fund the Hamas led Palestinian government after its parliamentary win in January 2006.”

“The history of the Palestinian People in far more recent than that of their Jewish neighbors. In fact, Palestine was created by the British Empire in the days after World War II. According to Rockwell Lazareth author of the essay “Who are the Palestinians”
There has never been a civilization or a nation referred to as Palestine and the very notion of a Palestinian Arab nation having ancient attachments to the Holy Land going back to time immemorial is one of the biggest hoaxes ever perpetrated upon the world! There is not, nor has there ever been, a distinct Palestinian culture or language. Further, there has never been a Palestinian state governed by Arab Palestinians in history, nor was there ever a serious Arab-Palestinian national movement until 1964 – By William John Hagan “
