Looks like the freedom flotilla is embarrassing the Zionists. I read that they are now going to allow building materials into Gaza. Just think about it--what kind of barbarians for years prohibited a nation from importing building supplies to build homes and hospitals? The Israelis did!

ajreaper: it's NOT a LEGAL blockade regardless of why israel feels it's necessary. I know plenty about the whole region! This is not about posturing, this is about FACTS. What about the fact that its NOT a legal blockade can you not grasp? And HOW can you DEMAND recognition from a people you DENY exist? And it is YOU that is BLIND to facts and PARANOID like ALL rabid PRO- israelis. I post facts and you MOAN and say the un says israel can exist, and then try to twist my response? Funny israel has not listened to one thing the UN said AFTER it permitted israel to exist. The UN says the blockade is illegal, so for israel the UN is a buffet, they can take what suits them and ignore the rest? THE BLOCKADE IS NOT LEGAL. And if you want to talk terrorists acts and why hamas exists, it (did NOT exist until 1987 FYI) the isreali defense forces were founded by jew terrorists irgun, haganah, stern gang and palmach and the majority of israeli prime ministers and some presidents were JEW TERRORISTS prior to their being voted into the knesset by israelis, so spare me your hypocrisy. you haven't a clue except what you have been spoon fed by RACIST ISLAMOPHOBES, What a childish moron you truly have shown yourself to be. It is you who truly needs to be educated on the true facts of why the situation exists.

IF israel annexes Gaza they have to give citizenship or residency ( according to geneva conventions) to all Palestinians there which could threaten the jewish majority and since they plan on keeping it a jewish state, they most likely will NOT annex gaza or all of the WB, but most likely parts of the WB they have been building illegal settlements on for years against the UN, Geneva Conventions, EU and the US.

Israel is a terrorist state that murdered thousands of Palestinians,forcing them off their land,bulldozing their houses and destroying Palestinian infrastructure.An international embargo should be placed on Israel similar to that which is on North Korea.

Israeil should absorb Gaza and the palestinians. Grant everyone citizenship and assimilate them. Israel is a limited Theocracy. that could be annoying. However, I have seen numerous cases where everyone gets along fine.A claim, ny nearly anyone of "historical" rights to the area is absurd. For nearly 4000 years it was invaded from the South, the North, The east and the Sea ..... things only get sticky if you insist "your" god gave it to you.

LOL, you are joking right? I mean all this huffing and puffing over the blockade and what not and you have no real idea why there is a blockade or who governs Gaza? All this posturing and you haven't a clue about any of the history surrounding the "why" of the blockade? Hamas lists the destruction of Isreal as a stated goal of the organization and has refused on numerous occasions to state that Isreal has the right to exsist. They also commit ILLEGAL acts upon Isreal from Gaza on a regular basis. The fact you'd even ask "where has anyone said Isreal does not have the right to exsist" shows you are just a clueless Isreal basher without a clue has to the history of why a blockade exsists and what events drove Isreal to this extreme. Go educate yourself and when you have a clue then come back and lecture us.

ajreaper: where has ANYONE said israel does not have the right to exist? And why is it ONLY israel that has the right to defend itself? Does that mean that israel can break international law to do that defending? You do not have international law working for you IF you continuously violate international law. And I can CITE ( NOT SITE ) anything I choose to as long as it is the truth! What SUPPORTS my position is the UN, EU and the US who all say quite clearly and in PLAIN English that the blockade is ILLEGAL. As for the bombing of a bus remark, where is your outrage at the bombing of UN school(S) and UN medical facilities and UN compounds by the idf in gaza?? Do you reserve your outrage for jewish casualties only? Spare me the hating on israel accusation, its lame and pathetic and I left my violin at home. I would be as critical of ANYONE who did what israel did to that flotilla in international waters. I do NOT support terrorism, not hamas terrorism, not IRA terrorism, not loyalist terrorism, and not jew terrorism. israel had NO right to board those sovereign vessels in international waters because the blockade is ILLEGAL. And as for the humanitarian aid, it is down 75% since the pre-illegal blockade. Gisha a jewish human rights organization had to take the israeli government to court to even have them issue a list as to what was a banned substance for gaza. SO this is not about the established and accepted way, as since that that blockade is illegal and its ONLY accepted by israel and they do not count since they are in breach of INTERNATIONAL laws. israel has NO right to go near ANY aid being sent to gaza since the blockade is ILLEGAL,. what about the word ILLEGAL can you NOT understand??????????????

the island of a unified Ireland should be the mission
these slave minds - but no - they have done well as servants for everyone else but their own. Its a defect
that keeps on giving - coming back time after time.
Everyone's war but their own. Off the join the British Army after this venture I'd bet.

shuvonn- Ya the UN also says Isreal has the right to exsist and also the right to defend itself so they also have international law working for them. You cannot site international as it supports your position and then turn around and ignore it when it does not. What does international law say about launching unguided rockets into cities? How about suicide bombing shops and busses? How about kidnapping? Ya I really feel sorry for Hamas. If those things were happening to any other country they get all kinds of world support but since its Isreal they hate on them. Interesting to note Isreal and the world knows there were no weapons on the ships last time because.............. they boarded those ships and made sure. What was not well known is that humanitarian aid can enter Gaza without a problem after it's been cleared- there is an estblished and accepted way to do this but that gets far less press then "running a blockade does'. If you really wanted to provide aid and avoid any potential for injury or death they'd follow those established methods to have aid enter Gaza but the attention is more important then the aid is.

peterson: why do you think it is that no weapons were found in the last flotilla? And how does that fact equate with your claim that weapons were somehow SUSPECTED to have been on those vessels? Strange that you neglected to mention the illegality of the blockade in the first place... do YOU get it now?

Most of these ships are suspected of carrying weapons of destruction such as grenade launchers, rockets, etc. This has been proven over and over. Do you get it now ??
