The flotilla

The Israeli flotilla raid was totally warranted as it would be with any nation who have neighbors with a violent track record. The Aid ship needed to show it was not a camflouged ship with weapons of all sorts etc.on board plus terrorists and though it could be an honest attempt to help the people of Gaza. The Arabs have proven time and again they cannot be trusted even in aiding their own people. The outrage shown by Arabs and Liberals is expected and it is short sighted ,while giving needed help is outstanding but the recepients have not proven they will not have treachery up their sleeves like when they hide behind men,women older people and children firing rockets into Israel before and daily today.
