-The action against the peace ships is pure piracy carried out on the high seas by your gangsters You claim to have israel at the gift of your god when you the jews invaded the country and grabbed what they could. Nothing changes; Israel is a ganster state which the UN had no power to create. Your piracy is characteristic and your spokesman on the BBC a liar.

This is what you might call a "good hand" in Chess or Go. Obviously the "protestors" were egged up to attack Israeli soldiers upon being boarded in the hopes of a few dying. "Protestors", meanwhile, were waiting for the bloodshed to erupt in Turkey and elsewhere around the world. The Islamists and worldwide communists will use this to condemn Israel. The Commies get the next move in "sente", Israel will be focused on defense while they get to choose the next avenue of attack. I can't see the next move that follows this provocation against Israel, but I guess we'll be finding out in the next few days.

Its been abundantly clear for some days that the organisers of these ships have been trying to inflame the situation & provoke unrest in the region. The Turkish government deliberately decided to allow the protest to go ahead with the full knowledge of the motives of the organisers & the likely outcome. Not only in term of a difficult boarding but in terms of increased terrorism in the region. Not only does this reflect badly on Turkey, but also that it can not for a very long time be trusted my the international community for a very long time.

He always has the ability to fan the flames and throw gasoline on the fire. All in a days work for a former night club bouncer.

Yes Israel's police will have to be on alert and stay on alert for a very long time. The people who will want to kill Israelis are not just the Muslims but also the Christians as well. After attacking the Freedom Flotilla and killing marines on the US Liberty Israel will no longer be able to let anyone into their country. And don't forget, people in western countries can forge passports as well.
