It will be interesting but Im sure not surprising as it gets swept away and blamed on Muslims...

You know as well as I do, the Israeli's and their American cohorts are currently as we speak wrecking their brains out trying to find some kind of plausible excuse to justify this huge fu** up and to sweet talk Turkey out of throwing a relationship busting tantrum.

IDF : 'We were confronted by a well planned lynch' lol (Yes, aid groups frequently practice guerrilla warfare tactics and maneuvers).
IDF : 'Our troops were attacked by live ammunition and other weapons' lol ( Yes, aid groups are frequently packing assault rifles and military hardware)
Hell, most ambulance drivers, paramedics, search and rescue teams, aid groups etc are strapping glocks and desert eagles didn't you know??

Give us a break. What a load of hogwash.

The Israelis have also claimed that Egypt offered to accept the aid where it will be checked. This was also rejected by the activists.

Apparently, Israel had no issue if the aid was handled in either their own or Egyptian Ports.

Perhaps Egypt is in cahoots with 'Israel'. (Camp David and all that). Is Egypt in Israels pocket? One wonders.

Apparently Egypt made the offer to avoid any potential nastiness. The Israelis didn't want to restrict the movement of aid into the Gaza Strip as long as it is certain that there are no arms.

Israel apparently accepted the Egyptian offer. It is unclear why the activists rejected Egypt's diplomatic initiatives. Maybe, the activists were chasing headlines for their cause! Sad!

One wonders whether Egypt can be trusted with anything apart from what GR says above. To me it seems that Egypt and Israel are part and parcel of the same material.

The object of the flotilla was to break the blockade imposed by Egypt and Israel together. They have no reason to Trust the Egyptians. The RoC should also beware of them.

Pahpitis, you are trying to paint the Zionist 'Israil' as angels. I dont believe you; as if they cared one Iota.

Deniz, I am not trying to defend Israel, but I do believe there are 2 sides to the story. The jury is still out for me personally. It will all depend on the evidence Israel releases and whether I find the evidence credible. If the activists did indeed attack the IDF then they can hardly claim IDF aggression.

I also believe that Israel is justified in wanting to know the exact contents of the aid. I don't believe they are justified in restricting the flow of aid.

In reality, the activists should have sent the aid to Egypt. Or perhaps they should have delivered the aid via US authorities. Anything is better than the tragic loss of life, which I find hard to believe that it was a deliberate act of IDF aggression. The Israelis have nothing to gain and will be condemned internationally if it was indeed a deliberate act of aggression.

No surprise there...

[Gasman]

I find it hard to believe that anyone finds it hard to believe that the IDF would commit any deliberate acts of aggression.

I don't believe the IDF would just board and indiscrminately open fire. But I do understand how things can get out of hand in certain situations.

There really is no motive/nothing to gain.

[EPSILON]

Terrorism of ISRAEL? No, terrorism of the fools aboard this flotilla. They were warned repeatedly to turn back. When the IDF boarded, they chose to attack violently. What army of any country, under these circumstances, would back down and flee? These posturing fools got what they deserved. Good for Israel.

FULLY AGREE.Furthermore G/cs in this forum must see deeper on the results of this certain incident - results related to Greek and Cyprus foreigtn policy-Turks once again suceeded a great victory even they sucrificed their own people.

Ysdy no Turkish planes were seen in Aeagen -Greek/Israel air exercice was in progress-today the exercice cancelled because some stupids decided to involve Greece and Cyprus in a war zone activity
