The world deserves to know the truth about what really happened during the takeover of the flotilla, instead of the blatant lies it's being spoonfed by the leftist/arabist media.

The enemy flotilla coming to aid their fellow jihadist in Gaza assumed that Israel had been weakened and neutered enough to back down and retreat again. THEY MISCALCULATED and will now move to stage 2 of demonizing Israel. Israel needs to send an even stronger message to Turkey and Hamas allies and not play the losing part of apologist . YOUR SHIPS WILL BE SUNK IF YOU ATTEMPT TO RESUPPLY HAMAS AGAIN.

You've got a lot of nerve to preach to us about humanitarian issues. Why don't you stop oppressing the Kurds? oh... and I forgot about the Armanian Massacre. Oh and ooops, weren't it the Turks who occupied Palestine for 400 years??

And all the great geniuses coming out of their holes, you can keep on siting in Australia, USA and Europe and judge us on our actions. You have no idea what you are talking about, how many buses have exploded in yours streets? how many missiles was fired on Sydney ? How many babies were killed in firing or with an axes on the streets of New - York??? So please be quiet, we do our job, we heard about "bleeding hearts" like you on1939 - so no more! I dont wish you to live by the grace of these "good people" that You're so eager to protect...

IDF has everything on video. Some of the footage is on Israeli news sites. It's ridiculous how the world continues to not figure out who is the truth teller in this part of the world (hint - ISRAEL).

they sent the right guys, just poor operational planning, really unbelievable, bad intel, Sheyetet 13 was the unit for the job, these missions are their bread and butter, but who ever was in charge should be removed, fast roping guys one at a time into an armed and hostile crowd is just unbelievable, just tear gas and smoke grenades to clear the deck, would have worked, unbelievable. It was the right unit, they were just completely misused and very, very poorly commanded, disgusting, and now some of our very best are badly wounded, because our politicians are so damn concerned about world opinion. YSM, are you referring to Yamas? They are bad ass, but this was a Sheyetet 13 mission, that is obvious.

And yet again, great soldiers, failling commadors! The world is so pathetic, they have already chosen thier opion about the opration:"Israel's fault etc etc" In a politcally correct country, it would have happen!!

If you would take a second to compare the violent video on bbc and the same video on ynetnews.com you will notice a few things cut out on the biased bbc version (example: activist stabbing soldier completely cut out on the bbc version).

Torpedoed in cold blood like the USS Liberty? http://www.gtr5.com/index.html Well you did get away with it then. Israel has become too used to not paying for the consequences of its actions. June 8 2010 is the 43rd anniversary of the cowardly israeli attack on the USS Liberty. Carefully swept under the carpet; the only attack on the US not investigated by Congress.

Cant blame the activists for trying to repel the israeli commandos. I would do the same if an intruder got into my car armed with guns, oh yeah, I will them with my bare teeth if I have to. It doesnt really matter if I get shot as my fight will buy time for the weak to escape

what you see on the majour world wide news broadcast based on a phenomnon called "Journalism of Attaschment" or "Victim Journalism". This refers to any new report which is biased towards to the more weak side - no matter what are the reasons for the conflict. This is a huge problem for the state of Israel, as the phalestininas use it for their own proposes and propaganda against Israel.

Turkey has joined with Palestinian Terrorists in a costly ambush of IDF Commandos who were enforcing the Gaza Blockade. With Allies like Turkey, Nato, America and Europe should think seriously about which side Erdogan is on.

If those bastards on that boat would have murdered our soldiers (ter ter ter) not ONE country would utter a word of condolence...not one.

...the ships in question did not announce to the whole world and threaten numerous time that they intended to break through a blockade, making them combatants, they could have just been sunk with torpedoes, which would have been a better move.

But the bad luck of Mr. Ben-Yishai, no one buys this version but the dupes and fools

I am Obamao and I unleash the hell on the Jews. They voted for me, they swoon when I speak, they send money to me but I am servant of Allah and I will crush Israel.

Jews were in Israel much befor the arabs or the palestinians who were born as an entity only 40 years ago. By the same token I can say that parts of your present country belong to Germany or Russia. As to human rights, my relatives were murdered in poland by poles after the second world war just because they were jews, so do not lecture us !!

Turkey needs to be dealt witt.

"The Israeli military said the violence turned deadly after one of the activists grabbed a weapon from one of the commandos." Do you seriously believe in this? How stupid commandos you've got over there?

Lol who wrote this article? The IDF? No body believes your lies. This article is disgraceful propaganda for a huge breach of international maritime and human rights law.

these so called "activists" wanted to attack Israel and instead shot themselves in the foot. they deserve every bit coming to them and much worse. IDF was very restrained in the face of these violent Jihadis and instead of 10 it should have killed all 700 of them.

this is ridiculous in the extreme. the boats were in international waters, israel had no legal right to board them. if the activists on board resisted in any manner, they were legally allowed to do so, since they had done nothing illegal and israel had no sovrerignty in the area. trying to cast a military assault by commandos which killed about 20 civilians as an "ambush" just shows how insanely out of touch israel has become, and the absurd extremes you will go to so as to try to deceive yourselves. look in the mirror, and you may finally see how the world is seeing you.

(like lydia from Brisbane, matty groves from Fairport, michael hess, peter from Vienna, atilla from Turkey, salma from "Palestine" among others) not coming to search for trut or looking for the other side of the story. Ynet is providing a convinient spit cup for their hate feelings, and we here just need to battle not to waste our time to try to make them understand us by answering to them one by one. You can paint the box red, they will still claim its black. Fingers will be always pointed on Israel matter what. Hundreds of killed here or there in Islam countrys is just a news flash no one is really questionizing and on contrary cold blood murdered jewish child will get small attention with media errors, (like murdered jeshiva students mostly age between 15-17 except two others, for example in Finland was told boys over 20 years old and in Estonian news they were already men under 30 years old. Nice isnt it?), will be forget tomorrow. Need to get over this, and not to look for approval of blinds or people who not witnessing but media covers. There is only on Ruler in this World and from Him we need to fear.

These Israeli soldiers showed restraint and a bravery that I wish I had. Well done IDF! The truth will never come out in the arab media. But the images they themselves filmed support the IDF version of the events. May G'd protect the young men and women of the IDF!

terrorists were warned not ambushed-nothing butal about israel or anyone else acting in self-defense as here--they are at war with amalek-do not forget!

leg shots can be fatal, but less likely than head or body shots, but any damage to the femoral artery, can lead to bleeding to death in minutes, especially with an elevated heart rate due to all the excitement, and the fact that they could not receive medical treatment until all the hostiles were subdued, dumb ass.

It was Internaional water. It was a babarian attack against activist. If I had been there, wich is impossible because I usually support Israel, I would have defended my self because we know what thé IDF does. This one was above all. I can you search for peace after deadly action like this. Seriously, I don't think that those people were a treat to Israel security.

Israel lost. Bad news for Israel people. Who have tade this decision?

How in hells name you send commanders in with paint guns? one Israel Navy commando live is worth more than 1000 Turks. They crossed the Blockade blow thm out of the water the END ! period..
