1. We need to know what is in the dolls?
Leah ,   Israel   (06.22.10)
Explosives etc!
2. Oh, too funny
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.22.10)
"We have undergone great hardships in sending aid all over the world and have used special channels to send the aid to Gaza." Oh, yeah. Do you mean the two arms-laden vessels which Israel torpedoed before they'd even cleared Bandar Abbas? Or are you talking about the arms convoy which Israel destroyed while making its way through the Sudan? No, wait! You're talking about the two ships, one interdicted in the high seas and one interdicted in Cyprian territorial waters. Both arms-laden, intended for delivery to Hamas and to Hizbollah. Can you be a litlle more specific, please? Since when are toys humanitarian aid, anyway? Did you run out of expired medicines? Is that the problem? Why not have a little chat with your Turkish friends? The IHH terrorist group seems to have good contacts for acquiring expired medicine. Give it up, Iran. You're just bringing your day of demise closer. Hey -- and that's a good thing. Bring it on.
3. Seize the ships
oxo ,   USA   (06.22.10)
Seize the ships and sell them off to offset the Israeli cost of interception.
4. CLEAR DECLARATION OF WAR!

5. "Equipment" included in the new Mo-tilla.....
Kenny Solomon ,   South Florida, USA   (06.22.10)
I didn't know you could make "equipment" using Semtex. I think there's a new website out there dedicated to these Mo-tillas..... It's something like "blow it out of the water dot com". Shalom ! Kenny Solomon Typical bitter Jewish God-clinging gun owner and barking-mad-insane NASCAR fan.
6. 10 people??? is that a canoe
ghostq   (06.22.10)
on inflated small boat you can board more people, the amount of the people just show the size of the cargo. yep tiny. unless they carry "toy guns".
7. #4 haha, what r u going to do about it?
Wael ,   Ramallah, Palestine   (06.22.10)
Show us what you're made of - goat!
8. The second ship Iran will send.....
Jacob Erickson ,   Holon, Israel   (06.22.10)
Will be named "the adorable kittens playing with string ship" This is an obvious ploy for provocation. I can see all the headlines now, "Israel attacks The Children of Gaza" "Israel steals The Children of Gaza" "Israel pillages The Children of Gaza" This could do a lot of PR damage, just in headlines.
9. those "Bush-whacking" Somali Pirates
AY_Lamb ,   Globestan   (06.22.10)
are going to steal the goods and take em back to their hideout on the Barbary Coast. Har Har me mateys
10. to #7 you palis r experts in rockets
ghostq   (06.22.10)
you know what rocket might do to a ship.
11. AND WHERE IS THE ATILLA OF TURKEY- MISSING :-)
BENJAMIN ,   SINGAPORE   (06.22.10)
12. wael 7
pablo stern ,   florida   (06.22.10)
watch and learn. you obviously have your head in the sand
13. Funny how they gave anything to a child in Haiti isn't it.
Lee ,   Manchester UK   (06.22.10)
so 'humanitarian' flotillas are the latest tool of jihad against Israel - next it will be against the US and Europe, where ships filled with jihadists will enter our ports to kill our Navy. The world is going mad - if we allow this to happen to Israel then how do we prevent it from happening to ourselves as it sure as hell will. Israel is the fore front line of a global clash of civilisations and the retarded muslim world is the enemy of FREEDOM. Israel is FREEDOM.
14. Israels Image
melvin polatnick ,   US   (06.22.10)
Hitlers attempt to blacken the image of the Jew is now carried on by the Gaza flotilla. It is designed to make Jews appear as callous monsters. There is no choice for Jews but to survive with the bad guy image. They have been doing it for 2000 years.
15. Oops! Funny how they gave NOTHING to kids in Haiti isn't it.
Lee ,   Manchester UK   (06.22.10)
it must be all that prostrating and headbanging.
16. Hope the vessel is heavily insured.
Harry Wright ,   UK   (06.22.10)
I wonder which maritime insurance company insures vessels that deliberately go to provoke a violent confrontation? Deliberately go to inflame the region? Deliberately embark on an illegal attempt to defy and break a legal blockade? OK Israel, you have your standard procedure. Drop it in Ban Ki Moon's hands again and demand that the UN avert this provocation and clear act of war. That is his job - not to persecute soldiers (and their country) who had to kill to defend themselves and protect their lives against the violent assault from the Turkish Basij.
17. I thought dolls were 'haram'...
Marylou ,   USA   (06.23.10)
But now I see they're all right -- as long as you remove the heads first. (I am not making this up!) http://www.askimam.org/fatwa/fatwa.php?askid=d95eaa7d04e2a3da963a1d26b80ccaa6
18. Iran Flotilla to Gaza - Call for U.N. Intervention
Rachel Iman ,   White Plains, USA   (06.23.10)
In the name of God, Allah, Hashem - the merciful To avert potential disaster, I call on Iran to allow a U.N. delegation to board the flotilla set to sail on Sunday, 6/27 and remove its contents, to be delivered by the U.N. to the people of Gaza on behalf of the People of Iran. I call on the governments of all nations involved, including Israel, Palestine, Iran, the U.S. and the family of nations to join together in an effort to move the peace process forward in the Middle East. The people have had enough war!!! Peace - Shalom - Salaam
19. iranian flotilla on sunday
mark ,   loa angeles, usa   (06.23.10)
Why put any IDF soldiers, or sailors at risk. Warn them not to enter Israeli waters or they will be torpedoed. Do not worry all arab nations plus Ban K. Moon will condemn you for being jews so who cares. Israel used to be known by the other Muslim nations as a country not to be messed with. Not one Israeli jew or non jew should die from this flotilla.
20. 300 Million Potential Martyrs
melvin polatnick ,   US   (06.23.10)
Sponsors of the Mavi Marmara blockade buster were aware that there were passengers that would martyr themselves against any soldiers boarding the ship. It is common knowledge that there are 300 million potential martyrs, while a billion moderates will stand by yelling ALLAHU AKABAR as infidel heads roll.
21. #18-
lara ,   Australia   (06.23.10)
Unfortunately, even if the vessle is UN personal, if it's coming from Iran, Israel will attack it. They don't care, what or who is in it. Israel is known to have blown up U.N buildings in the past. The U.N doesn't mean anything to them
22. 21 Israel has reputation for bombing UN building/envoys
lydia ,   Bribane   (06.24.10)
However,many are now aware of Israel violations and crimes. The UN demanded and received compensation for the UN buildings that Israel bombed during their last incursion into Gaza ie "Operation Cast Lead"
23. Iranian flotilla
Monte ,   southcentral, ky   (06.25.10)
We should be fed up with the U.N. It is time we got out of the U.N. and wholeheartedly support Israel. We are tired o our gov't and POTUS trying to appease everyone. We are tired of compromise. We serve God,Yahweh, the same God of Israel. We don't serve any false god such as allah or any other manmade god. We must stand with Israel if we are expected to be blessed at all. Ishmaelites will always be at Israel's throat until God returns. No , we are not Jewish, we are Independent Misionary Baptists that know God has a Remnant in Israel.
