there are people that are just plain Stupid.
Bet you didn`t even know Israel had a navy. I never thought much about it, all you ever hear about is their air force. Guess again...
I ripped this from CNN, just so I could be " fair ".
CNN) -- An Israeli patrol boat struck a boat carrying medical volunteers and supplies to Gaza early Tuesday as it attempted to intercept the vessel in the Mediterranean Sea, witnesses and Israeli officials said.
CNN correspondent Karl Penhaul was aboard the 60-foot pleasure boat Dignity when the contact occurred. When the boat later docked in the Lebanese port city of Tyre, severe damage was visible to the forward port side of the boat, and the front left window and part of the roof had collapsed. It was flying the flag of Gibraltar.
The Dignity was carrying crew and 16 passengers -- physicians from Britain, Germany and Cyprus and human rights activists from the Free Gaza Solidarity Movement -- who were trying to reach Gaza through an Israeli blockade of the territory.
Also on board was former U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney.
As far as Mrs. McKinney goes, I hace a sign at my restaurant : I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. It does not matter Who you are, OR Who you think you are, OR Who your Daddy is.
Oh No, they " rammed " a boat that was trying to run their blockade.
What does blockade mean ? It means - You can`t go through here.
The " humanitarian vessel " knew they were trying to enter a War Zone. They refused to stop. They were " rammed " 3 times.
Try refusing to stop for a Texas Dept. of Public Safety officer....
Simply, Isreal had every right to stop the other vessel. They were lucky they were not fired upon ! Aid comes After the war is over, NOT during.
Like I always say : If you are the friend of my enemy, you are my enemy.
GOD Bless America, Y`all.
