Interrogations reveal that most Flotilla "humanitarians" actually tied to global jihad -- and recruited specifically to attack Israeli soldiers

More evidence that this was a jihad attack against Israel, not an Israeli attack on innocent "humanitarians." "Probe reveals flotilla lynchers have ties to Global Jihad," by Ron Ben-Yishai for YNet News, June 1 (thanks to all who sent this in):

VIDEO - The ongoing interrogation of passengers who were aboard the Marmara - the Gaza aid flotilla's flagship - revealed that the majority of those who attacked the Israeli Naval Commandos boarding the ship have direct and indirect Global Jihad ties. Israel's investigation has revealed some 100 people infiltrated the peace and humanitarian aid activists making their way to Gaza, with the explicit design to attack Israeli soldiers using cold arms.

Some among that group are believed to have ties with World Jihad groups, mainly al-Qaeda.

The majority of suspects are Turks, but some are Yemenites and Indonesian. One Yemenite Islamist was photographed with a dagger in his belt prior to the raid.

The suspects are not cooperating with investigators. Most of them have no identification papers, and Israeli authorities are still trying to ascertain their identity.

Nevertheless, it is clear that the majority were recruited by the same IHH handler who organized the flotilla.

IHH is a Turkish humanitarian relief fund with a radical Islamic anti-Western orientation.

Some of the suspects were found to be carrying large sums of money. Others had Kevlar vests and gas masks; and all were found to be carrying weapons such as knives, metal clubs and slingshots....

Why is this so obvious to you and me? Why can't the leaders of the free world condemn the actions of Turkey, Hamas and the dhimmi peace organization they are using as a front?

"But the emperor has no clothes!"

If the Western world goes easy on these people, it will go hard on the Western world further down the line. There has to be a basic minimum of understanding, sympathy, and solidarity for Israel, not least because Israel is, in the end, a bellwether for what's to come, what's likely in a variety of forms to befall, all of us.

It´s becoming pretty obvious that it would have been a sad letdown if nothing had happened, if the flotilla had been let through just like that. But probably contingency plans were all prepared.
Al-Jazeera must be more circumspect next time, and not give the game away.

Errata Sheet:

For "IHH is a Turkish humanitarian relief fund with a radical Islamic anti-Western orientation"

Read "IHH is a radical Islamic anti-Western organization disguised as a humanitarian relief fund."

.................

I'm shocked, shocked...OK, no I'm not.

I hope that the well-meaning "peace activists" who came along as the Jihadists' 'beards' were, though–although at this point, anyone who still believes that "Gaza wants peace" is so willfully deluded that even winding up on the Jihad flotilla may not change their minds...

As Gomer Pyle used to say, "well, surprise, surprise, surprise."

It's so stunningly simple isn't it? When they're done finishing off Israel we, the great satan, are next!!


The "world" media, with a few exceptions, won't give a rat's furry backside as to the truth of the whole event. This is Jew-bashing material and they will run with it. And just like another simpleton, they too will "Run, Forrest, run".

By the reactions of people to the whole story, you can see who sides with evil, and who fight to defend the civil society.

We've been here before, it's the same headline grabbing operation. They do something that provoke a predictable or otherwise unavoidable reaction, and they run with it full speed to get as much false information as possible on first headlines (was reported 20 killed, later known as 9). They know that people get stuck to the first headline, and any false facts that surface later don't do much to change the first impression.

Only now, this is nothing new, and we know better, who are the ones who scream and shout and wave 'free palestine' flags, as if sudani slaves or sort. Knowing they fight, side by side, with jihadists.

Again, I get the jihadist, it's just what they do. But the lefties, the ones who claim to be civil, yet side with cold blooded murderers, they are in fact, worse.

Talking of the dhimmis, AKA the international media, the BBC building in Manchester was invaded by a horde yesterday.

The glass doors were smashed and this band of ingrates proceeded to rampage through the place.

Check the BBC news site for information. That's if you can. Sorry but the sad fact is that there's not one scintilla of news on this invasion there.

Now had that been the EDL?

I actually cannot bear to watch or listen to news on this excuse of a broadcaster anymore.

Over manned and over paid from the public purse, they thought they were above it all. Now a new broom is sweeping out the political stables and they are in the sights.

Nothing would bring greater joy than to see these charletons cut down to size.

The Jerry Springer Show appears more truthful than the "news" media nowdays. I can't see any rational reason behind the media's blatant distortions or omissions of the truth. Left-wing, PC. etc, what exactly do they think they will achieve and to what purpose? Are they really insane or stupid enough to welcome something far worse than Hitler into the civilized world? Talk about jumping into the fire.

This is a condensed version of comments made by radio personality Howard Galganov.


An unfortunate thing happened on the road to yet another sickening photo-op for Obama. Israel had to do what a REAL country has to do in terms of defending its national security and integrity. Not that Obama would have a clue about what that is, evidence being how he is MISHANDLING the Mexican/US border travesty.

GOODBYE NETANYAHU VISIT:

Prime Minister Netanyahu cancelled his new visit with Obama because of the clash on the High Seas. In truth though, there was no reason why Prime Minister Netanyahu had to cancel his Obama meeting.

But, it was a GREAT excuse for Netanyahu NOT to be bothered to share any PR time with the Israel-Hater-In-Chief. And who can blame him?

1 - WHY DID THIS VIOLENT HIGH-SEAS GAZA EXCHANGE HAPPEN?

2 - WHO’S RESPONSIBLE FOR IT?

On the surface, it is being portrayed as yet another example of how the big bad Israelis are subjugating “POOR” Palestinians and the “KIND” humanitarian folk who only want to help out of compassion.

What is NOT being discussed at all, is Israel’s LEGITIMATE RIGHT as is recognized by the World Community to operate a Naval Blockade against a declared enemy, which in essence means using all measured force necessary to keep out unwarranted shipping.

But, the facts which most of the media are wrestling with, go far beyond the reason and cause for this incident, since they focus just about ONLY on ISRAELI VIOLENCE.

One of the tragedies is that Israel was FORCED to react at all. That Israelis were beaten, stabbed, clubbed and shot at while trying to peacefully board the ships for the express purpose of turning the flotilla to an Israeli port, where the ships would be unloaded, allowing non military cargo to be transported to Gaza.

The other TRAGEDY is that the world has another EXCUSE to demonize and punish Israel.

Back to WHY it happened and WHO is responsible? It happened specifically because of BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA who is singularly and totally responsible for everything.

If Obama wasn’t so busy EMPOWERING the Arab/Moslem World with lies and deceit, while diminishing Israel and his own country, the SO-CALLED Peace Activists aboard those cursed ships would have NEVER tried to do what they did.

Obama has drawn an entirely new ROAD MAP for the Middle East by giving victim status and unwarranted legitimacy to the Palestinians, while playing Joseph Goebbels AGAINST the Jews of Israel.

1 – The people onboard these ships, especially the ship that led the attack against the Israelis were NOT Peace Activists. Peace Activists don’t smash the heads of other people with steel bars, stab other people, and shoot other people.

2 – That the Israelis killed ONLY 9 of these Peace Activists is in my opinion a tremendous display of restraint.

These were NOT mercy ships bringing humanitarian aid to starving impoverished people. These ships were nothing more and nothing LESS than an open PROVOCATION and challenge to Israel’s security and sovereignty.

It’s fascinating how the WHOLE WORLD rushes to the support of Palestine, this FICTIONAL political creature, and PRETEND people that NEVER existed before the UN LEFTISTS created it, while creating for themselves a never-ending INDUSTRY, at the same time ignoring the REAL suffering of people living under the thumb of totalitarianism in the name of Islam and others.

No region and people on the planet command as much attention, resources, and global wealth than do the Palestinians. It is a TRILLION dollar perpetual industry that keeps UN LEFTISTS, mostly Euro-Trash in Fat City, just about all of which is financed at the expense of the Western Democracies they actually disdain.

There are no starving Palestinians. There is no health crisis in Gaza. There is nothing these ships could have been bringing to Gaza that isn’t already available through the Gaza/Egypt/Israel Border Crossings courtesy of the UN.

Nothing that is; that aren’t rockets, explosives, guns, bullets and who knows what else the Palestinians could and would use to kill Jews in Israel.

IGNORING AN ACT OF WAR:

Isn’t it curious that the North Koreans SANK a South Korean Battle Ship causing the death of more than 40 South Korean sailors, and hardly a peep was made of it?

But, in an act of self-defense, Israeli commandos kill 9 people amongst a viscous mob, and the UN Security Council is CONVENED at the speed of LIGHT to CONDEMN Israel, with NO ONE coming to Israel's defense, INCLUDING Obama’s White House.

I wouldnt be surprised if half of these so called
peace terrorists.. err activists
were hired by democrats and registered to vote
before being armed and sent out to shoot jews..

i know thats harsh but it wouldnt surprise me one bit

Especially with all the liberal TRAITORS we have in our
own government...

Of course Netanyahu had to cancel his Obama visit. People were killed. This could easily trigger WWIII. Seems like you need to head home if your nation appears to be on the brink of war.

And they are sending 2 more boats. Sounds like an act of war...

"There has to be a basic minimum of understanding, sympathy, and solidarity for Israel, not least because Israel is, in the end, a bellwether for what's to come, what's likely in a variety of forms to befall, all of us."-Hugh

But many people (because of the effectiveness of Jihad propaganda) do not see what this is about. They see Israel as a bully.

This boat stuff is all about propaganda. Israel and the West have to learn from the Jihad Cruise Line Operators how to wage a propaganda war.

The West, especially Israel, is being demolished by a well-organized propaganda machine. It's as if they have a Goebbels managing their very effective propaganda.

They can only win by by-passing reason and appealing to emotion. And they are winning.

It has become odd for me think that there are any Muhammadens who fully understand their source materials and the obligations that are placed upon them while performing the acts listed below and not be connected to global Jihad. All Muhammadens are expected to either strive or fight in global jihadi conquest (whether they know it or not).

All Muhammadens who practice their beliefs as 'true believers' in the forms of: killing, raping; divorcing at the slightest provocation; enslaving and trading slaves either directly as commonly understood or through the death penalty for leaving or not believing what Muhammadenism believes; abusing and molesting children (pedophilia); forcing non-Muhammadens and Muhammadens to believe error against their will; forced prostitution; demonizing hate speech, along with the hate and divisiveness it produces; suicide, prejudice, racist elitism (Arab, black or any other), terrorism, bombings, genocide, mass murder; crushing dissent; stifling spiritual maturity and growth; killing the saints and holy men and women of various religions; mob violence and hysteria, vandalism, deception, idolatry, piracy/looting/thievery, anger, jealousy, abuse, sexism, harassment, spiritual and common ignorance and insanity, global conquest and domination, death threats, intimidations, bullying, violence, arrogance and other practices and emotional states are terrorists or potential terrorist.

Just because someone reads the Koran in Arabic and does not understand what they are reading does not mean that their favorite Imam is not or will not eventually con or coerce them into some or all of the above atrocities.
Many of our laws are preventative as in seat belts, DWIs, illegal drug use, death threats, speeding, trespassing, etc.
In these cases the person committing them have not actually done any harm but they could have. This is what Muhammadens are that understand their source materials and feel obligated to perform what they are commanded to perform. They are terrorists waiting to happen and should be fined or arrested for preaching and practicing this corruption of humanity.

"Colonel Moshe Levi, commander of the IDF’s Gaza Strip Coordination and Liaison Administration (CLA), said that none of the equipment found on board the three cargo ships was in shortage in Gaza."

Surprise!

I think it's possible for Israeli Jews and the Gaza Palestinians to have a peaceful coexistence so that no blockade of any sort around Gaza will be necessary. How?

Since Hamas in interminably hostile towards Israel and absolutely obsessed about and intent on destroying Israel as evidence by their words, schemes, and actions, Hamas is the main, or only, and real obstruction to a peaceful coexistence between Jews in Israel and Palestinians in Gaza. I think the best thing to do is for Israel to fully occupy Gaza, expel and/or destroy Hamas, and annex Gaza to become part of the State of Israel. Palestinians would then be subject to the laws of Israel if they are willing, or they can go elsewhere - such as the West Bank. That way, there will be no more Hamas in Gaza, which means no more obstruction to peaceful coexistence between Jews and Palestinians, and no more blockade around Gaza.

"Hamas is the main, or only, and real obstruction to a peaceful coexistence between Jews in Israel and Palestinians in Gaza."

Nope. Islam is the main, or only, and real obstruction. Hamas is name of one organization, which has grown in the conducive atmosphere of dar-al-islam. There will be more, with other names, and this is never ending.

Except, if somehow palestinians are re-claimed from the death cult and converted to a respectable religion. Any religion, which doesnot frown upon mutually respectable co-existence with non-believers.

The good news as I see it:

I am gratified and grateful that no Israelis were killed by that mob of murderous SOBs on the Turkish ship. I fully expected it, but I am happy that Israel stopped this jihad flotilla from succeeding. It is clear that the red/green alliance will not be able to bend Israeli resolve, despite what they believe is their success in stirring up a media pogrom.

Further, this delays the PR event that Obama was hoping for with Netanyahu. It also raises the stakes. Let's see what the White House will do now, since our Prez wants the Jewish vote, but his overriding desire is to please the Muslim world. What a pickle.

Also, the sham peace talks are now less likely to go forward.

Lastly, Israel's steadfast sticking to its principles shows strength to the Muslim fanatics, who respect only force.

Now if only the western media and politicians would do just a bit of the same this never-ending circus would die out. It is our side that is keeping all of it going. The Muslim fanatics are actually weak and small people with bottomless malevolence. Our western media give them the platform and the megaphone to propel them onto the world stage again and again with their phony story.

I am ashamed of the knee-jerk response of my own (UK) government, and the left-wing media. Israel deserves our support on this.
