1. What is amazing to me is
David ,   On this planet   (06.03.11)
When a Holocaust survivor dedicate his life to be an anti Israel he then qualifies to be awarded a Pulitzer prize. That tells me exactly what a Pulitzer prize is really worth . This US flotilla not only endangers the life of the people on board but could destroy the good relation between Israel and the US if the ship is boarded by the IDF. The us State department objects other Gaza-bound flotillas but does not stop a US bound one. that's weird and not very smart
2. Audacity of Dope
(06.03.11)
Anyone who joins his flotilla is not looking for peace. They are really supporting terrorism and the fabricated Palestinian "humanitarian" facade.
3. what about an aid flotila to free kurdistan?

4. To the Jewish people on this boat
Don ,   Nahal Oz, Israel   (06.03.11)
Don't you understand that what you are jeopardizing my family,friends and me, our lives? Don't you understand, Gaza has stores that are full of items, supermarkets full of food, they have shopping centers, lovely entertainment places? Don't you know that now the Egyptian border is open to Gaza and they can get all they want through this border? Don't you know almost everyday Our don't you want to know because you just don't care about the facts and only want to hurt Israel?
5. OH...the ship of the fools...will Obama
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (06.03.11)
also join in...? (and madame Hillary...lol)
6. Reality check??? Me in London talking
Sarah C ,   London   (06.03.11)
I find it ridiculous that all these Human Rights activists from across America and Europe still conclude that the biggest humanitarian crisis in the region is in Israel, in the mean time Syria's drooling lunatic dictator is genuinely murdering scores of people who are protesting legitimately against his oppressive regime(much more than the 9 that died in last years flotilla and with less provocation). I call on all fair minded, true human right activists to send their flotilla elsewhere, the will of those who defend human rights is the west's greatest asset, do not let Islamists high jack this value
7. US needs to show the world that you can stop these ships
Eric ,   Tel Aviv & NY   (06.03.11)
The US asked Turkey to stop their ships from sailing, It is time to show the world that even the USA can enforce the rule of law and prevent breaking a legal blockade.
8. Are they going to fish the dead Syrians in sea?
(06.03.11)
That would make more sense.
9. thank you
rashid ,   palistinian   (06.03.11)

10. walker is bitter about her divorce from her jewish ex
(06.03.11)
11. i missed ur comments rashid ;-D
dana ,   national   (06.03.11)
love it
12. Alice on the wonder ships
Roger   (06.03.11)
Alice Walker, I hope that you are taking along enough diapers. It could turnout to be a long, very long ' voyage '. This ship of fools with meshugeneh jews onboard is only looking to hurt Jews. As far as Israel is concerned. the hell with them.
13. disgusting
Israel Israeli ,   Tel Aviv   (06.03.11)
These murderous collaborators are profaning the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. If he was alive he would condemn Hamas and its genocidal plans. If he was alive he would condemn Fatah for their history and continuous threats of murder of children because of their race. He would demand that the Arabs accept Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state.
14. Dos and Donts
Jonny ,   Cape Town   (06.03.11)
I wonder if these intrepid voyagers will find a Synagogue or a Church in Gaza to pray for peace. Dont wear any jewellery that may show your religion, and dont mention birth control, its not a topic that would go down well with the 13 children families. Remember when walking the streets to keep behind your male escourt, and cover up every bit of flesh. While weairng revealing clothing in your country is your right, its not allowed in Gaza. Remember at all times your place, its a Patriarchal Society. A must see is to visit the site of the Italian "peace" activist who was gunned down by your friends. Shopping of course is out, as this may show the extent of items that ARE available in Gaza. Please remember not to mention Gilad Shalit (who you may ask?), I guess you will not be bringing any "humanitarian aid" for him. Rememeber at all times that the CHARTER of the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED Hamas calls for the annihilation of all Jews.
15. Bravo!
Moshe Cryan   (06.03.11)
This should prove to the wold that not all Jews support Netanyahu's draconian policies. The world's Jewry needs to understand that Israel must be a light unto nations and, not a blight unto nations and effect change..
16. double disgusting
Larry ,   Los Angeles   (06.03.11)
We haven't enough problems? So we need the liberal Jews to join with our enemies to prove to the world and themselves that they are more anti-Semitic than the Pope?
17. Media
John ,   Herzliya, Israel   (06.03.11)
The fact that there are some people in the world who are willing to support terrorists, thinking that they are supporting Palestinian "fight for freedom" only shows the strength that media have. After 50 years of continuously reporting that one side is bad while the other one is pure gold, brings results...
18. i want an apology letter from the gazans who killed my
jasmin ,   israel   (06.03.11)
father. make a flotila to free israel from terror attacks too.
19. Some Jews against Israel, some non-Jews support Israel...
Melissa ,   Patra   (06.03.11)
20. and please dear activists, I need chanel bags an Lv luggages
poor Gaza girl ,   Gaza   (06.03.11)
you know, rafah opened and I cannot find it in Gaza markets... We need help we are hunger we need macarons
21. What Dr. King actually said
Logic ,   Israel   (06.03.11)
Dr King's own words: "I see Israel as one of the great outposts of democracy in the world...as a marvelous example of what can be done...how desert land can be transformed...into an oasis of brotherhood and democracy." "Peace for Israel means security...and that security must be a reality." "When people criticize Zionists...they mean Jews."
22. and what about Gilad Shalit???
disgusted ,   Tel Aviv   (06.03.11)
Have any of the idiotic Americans done anything or given any thought to freeing Gilad Shalit? Do they even know who he is? And to those Jews on an American ship (where are you now Obama - or maybe we should say Osama) if you manage to get to Gaza you will stand out as Jews - be hated as Jews - as be killed for being a Jew. Hamas is just waiting for you. You think they give a crap that you're on a ship to break the (internationally legal) blockade to try to "help" them. Help them to what? To destroy the only country that you could be safe in. To destroy the only democracy in the entire Middle East. Go ahead - show them how "enlightenend" and "liberal" you are - and they will show you that they laugh at you and maybe they'll keep you a prisoner for 5 years or more. And then I'll stand by very very silently. If you don't "know" who you are - THEY sure do.
23. the so called
gdfathermax ,   tel aviv israel   (06.03.11)
freedom flotilla reminds me of an opposite but actually sad comparison some 70yrs ago, when a ship the st. louis sailed from germany with jewish refugees. no country wanted them and subsequently most passengers died in the death camps. now we see this travesty of justited exploited by all who hate us. these liberal lefty jews are a joke to our religion. most no nothing of our jewish history and have swallowed the muslim line hook line and sinker. by the way i come from parents who were holocaust survivors and i know our history,
24. The scum of the earth
BUILDING ISRAEL ,   United States   (06.03.11)
with the appropriate name of the vessel. Can't wait to see how the Israeli's treat this one... These people are setting themselves up for a mighty fall. The only legitimate owners of the whole of Israel are the Jews.
25. Israel is my country.
noa ,   israel   (06.03.11)
The only reason for this Flotilla is to challenge Israel. Israelis' passion for their own nation is vastly underestimated by the rest of the world. Because of this passion, although quite painful, we will win.
27. Jackie Mason said it best...'There isn't a bigger
Al   (06.03.11)
putz in this world than a Jew and a boat.' These dumb nuts who are asking to have their heads clocked will end up having their heads clocked. This time the Navy will not be using paint ball guns.
28. Gaza siege? Egypt has opened the border!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (06.03.11)
29. this is the part where they think that being jewish
(06.03.11)
gives them some sort of "extra" merit to their cause. drown that ship just as you would any other.
30. gaza is the paradise
alaa ,   turkey   (06.03.11)
