[quote name='bmulligan']Yes, it does. It means when approached by a millitary force when attempting to illegally sail toward a blockaded port, you submit to the authority. No one would have died at all had they not set upon the Israelis with "improvised" weapons like pipes that just lay around on ship decks, along with flash grenades.
Yes, if they weren't in a propaganda and public perception war, they would have just opened fire and hid behind civilian shields like the freedom fighters in gaza. And since you think Jews must be invincible, and being cracked on the head with a pipe can be shrugged off because it's not a real weapon, I suggest you stop your political dabbling and change the channel back to the WWF where chairs to the face don't really hurt people either.
Yes. "Doctored audio". According to another jew hater's post, the article in question stated:
So, the audio was not in it's original form and may not have come from the flotilla in question, but some of the jew hating terrorists DID communicate their anti-semitic, anti-american opinions. They just came from other ships in the convoy. It still exemplifies the intent of the group as a whole. Claiming they were humanitarians is a lie, no matter how many diaries are written. The video trumps the written word.
People who accept the personal propaganda diary of a self confessed Jew hater neesd to do some soul searching. Had he not decided to put himself in harms way, he wouldn't have been able to write a scathing attack against Israel. He knows how his bread is buttered. Since no one can win an all out war with Israel, he knows the media is the only arena in which he has any chance for victory. The blockade is only brutal to those who wish to provoke and commit violence against the IDF. All evidence proves none of this was improvised, it was planned, and executed with a perfect result.
The only travesty here is that the IDF didn't just lay down and let their commandos be murdered. That would have been the right thing to do. The humanitarians could have broken the blockade and rode victory across world newspapers for weeks. No one would have even cared about a couple dozen dead Jews.[/QUOTE]
I advise you to refrain from spouting out your heretical nonsense. The audio has been doctored, hell one of the people in the audio wasn't ON ANY OF THE SHIPS. It was faked using previous audio sources and footage. You admit the audio is not in its original form, do you not think for one, ONE SECOND that other modifications were made to it? You see several videos from multiple sources and the IDF release videos have distinct differents(lip movement, lip synchronization is off).
Do you honestly believe that Israel would release non-edited footage? The IDF is a media controlling military organization hell bent on portraying themselves and their country as "little orphan Annie". They want pity, if they don't get pity then they do not receive support and aid. They must always be the victim, they are good at playing the victim.
And I love how people throw the word Anti-Semite around as if it means "Against Israel". It's Anti - Middle East, which has been slowly re-defined to fit a propaganda campaign. My statements aren't made because I am an Anti-Semite, far from it, I am not because I have family in the surrounding countries and my beliefs much like yours and other peoples are the same. I have no qualms with anyone, or any country so long as all the BS is set aside and the truth can be known. Nobody deserves to live in long standing conflict for centuries as the Jews were, and how are the "arabs"(nice spin on this as well) are now. You would think they would work harder at settling down and making peace from their past hardships and the ones they are causing to others and unto themselves by pulling these tactics.
Finishing off, you ever think they threw in "anti-american" to get the US to back them? This whole deluge of garbage is something out of a horrible B movie. James Miller, killed by IDF, Yitzak Ribin killed by one of his own. Allegations were thrown initially at the Palestinians and trying to force blame on them but in the end the smear campaign failed just like it is now.
Hard to trust people who tried to kill innocents to undermine and point the finger at another country:
Mossad(Special Israeli Intelligence) were former terrorists themselves.
Egypt
- In what was later known as the Lavon affair, Israeli agents attempted to discredit Egypt's government, headed by Nasser, in 1954, by bombing theaters, post offices and U.S. and British institutions in Cairo. The operation failed and the Israeli defence minister was forced to resign as a consequence.[25]
