Flotilla Update: Israel Attacks Convoy, Deaths Reported

[17breezes]

"Where do you keep getting the idea that pointing out someone else's atrocity is going to serve as an excuse for Israel's atrocities?"

That's not it at all. Just pointing out the HYPOCRISY and selective outrage so prevalent around these discussions. I thought this remark "Do you think the world will be outraged?" would have made it clear. Instead you decide to scold me. Whatever.

Sounds like racism to me.

This world is so full of racism, I don't know who's is more worthy of the prestige

If the people who support Israel are so morally justified, then why do they have to make stuff up and lie in order to promote more hatred?

IDF admits doctoring audio of raid on Gaza flotilla

June 6th, 2010

The Israeli Defense Force has issued a "clarification" admitting it manipulated audio of its raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla.

On Friday, the IDF released audio of what it said was an exchange between Israel Navy officers and the crew of the Mavi Marmara, the main vessel in the flotilla. In it, voices could be heard telling the Israeli soldiers to "go back to Auschwitz" and "we're helping Arabs go against the US -- don't forget 9/11, guys."

But flotilla passengers quickly began disputing the veracity of the audio clip.

Investigative journalist Max Blumenthal reports that the head of the Free Gaza movement, Huwaida Arraf, could be heard on the videotape asserting the flotilla's right to enter Gaza territory. But Arraf says she wasn't on board the Mavi Marmara, and was actually on board another ship, the Challenger One. Another flotilla member whose voice can be heard on the audio, Ali Abunimah, also said he wasn't aboard the Mavi Marmara.

According to a news report from the Palestinian news agency Ma'an, Arraf suggests the audio of her that appeared in the clip came from an earlier exchange between her and Israeli forces, but she admits she "could not be sure" she didn't repeat her assertion during exchanges with the IDF during the raid.

A head's up: we're at 30 pages here and the thread's drifting and ablaze. I trust no one will be shocked and or appalled to see it locked, more likely sooner rather than later.

What a place! (RI, and Gaza) This thread has really grown.

Hello Alice. I'm really pleased to see that you posted. I don't have time to read it right now, and give it the serious consideration I'm sure it deserves, but I will. I just happened to come to this thread because this is where I thought this video, (Zionist's Story) had been posted. I'm in video mode today. Afterall, a picture worth a thousand words.

After watching Icke, and the "The Zionist Story", from this thread, - I linked to these, which were on the same YouTube page. Gaza reminded me so much of Warsaw anyway that I just had to put 'em up. I thought they rounded out the historical perspective.

What the heck, I'll post it here too.

And yet I failed to lock before the Hitler was a Zionist post.

Done here.

Second thread started here.
