4 bolds, 4 responses.
1. no the ones that follow international law let israel do what it deems necessary to keep its country safe. may that be a blockade on gaza, tightened borders, a strong military, or stoping 'aid" from getting to gaza by a bunch of people claiming they are peaceful and then start a fight by grabbing a soldier's gun.
2. actually this has everything to do with gaza.you are a fucking moron. where do you think these ships were headed? a bottomless pit? Israel has a blockade on gaza, also blockaded by egypt, because people had smuggled weapons into gaza to attack israelis and instill fear for years in innocent civilians who only had 15 seconds to run from a missile which would land at a random spot, possibly killing your 3 year old child who wasnt old enough to understand the severity of the problem, or your 10 year old child who tripped on a rock was wouldnt be able to make it to the bunker.
Israel had a ban on supplies to gaza. period. this flotilla was heading to gaza.
3. yea, sure the activists wouldnt take over the whole army, but they dont want any of their soldiers killed. Especially when they were going on foreign ships they have repeatably denied entry to. For all the israeli's knew, they were headed onto boats rigged with explosives and weapons ready to strike at the first israeli that landed. It happened plenty in Operation Cast Lead. Schools, mosques, apartments, etc were rigged to explode once and israeli walked inside.
Suicide bombers are not rare these days. what makes you think israelis wouldnt expect a boat to have them?
4. No israeli commandos landed to give the people a stronger warning. You dont demand people to do anything in your boxers and a pencil. israel has given plenty of warning in the weeks before their voyage, as well as plenty of warning before boarding the ships.
If a group of people did not listen to your warnings, especially up against a group of navy commandos, you must expect these people to be idiots or smugglers thinly disguised as "activists"
1. Namely, only America. The ones that actually follow the law try to place sanctions on what Israel does. Guess who waves those away?
2. Thank you taking a personal assault against me. I will refrain from doing the same to you, since theres no reason to get personal here. Just saying Israel has a blockade doesn't make things right. This just in: I am blockading the nation of France, I will be patrolling with my canoe. It really doesn't matter if Israel had an illegal ban on supplies to Gaza. Turns out, people need shit to live. As stated earlier, the ships were checked out in EU ports; no 'terrist-supporting devices were on board.
3. So, if you are illegally being borded, you should automatically submit to the pirates?
4. A few shots off their bow would have been a pretty darned strong warning. If they actively decided to enter a potential hostile area, they can't cry foul when it becomes hostile.
I'd just like to point out that theres no reason to take these posts personal, and I'd appreciate if personal attacks would stop.
