Nice that you brought that up. Under UN 242 Israel has to withdraw from territories. It very specifically doesnt say all territory. When Israel made peace with Egypt it had fullfilled that obligation. Dont forget, Jews lived all over the land before Israel was re-created. Also, under partition plan all land West of Jordan River was to be part of Israel, including Golan heights. As far as I know, that international plan is the only one that is legal. Arabs never accepted other partition plans, so it is the Arabs in Judea and Samaria who ar occupying Israeli land and should go to Jordan Palestine on the otherside of the river. However, since Israel is interested in peace and the arabs arent. Israel has accepted less than 20% of the land. Its time for the Arabs to do the same and to compensate the 850,000 Jewish refugees, far more than the 650,000 Arab refugees mentioned in UN resolutions...yes, it mentions all refugees, not just Arab.

That would be considered a war-crime by Goldstone and company.

"unpredictable" for the Turks and ESPECIALLY for the Iranians. In the behind-the-scenes "silent" war, Iran has lost more than it cares to remember, and Israel has more surprises up its sleeve, count on it. I am also quite sure that the US will not regard lightly the attack of it's ships by puppets of Muslim terrorist rogue dictatorships. The consequences of this act will be devastating for Turkey and Iran and the Monkeys dictators there know this too well. They are too coward to challenge both Israel AND the US. In your case we have another proof that hatred and racism can make for some very ugly and stupid people.

These morons spreading Muslim venomous propaganda should stop insulting our intelligence.

Syria or Iran same side of the coin. The weapons were going to Hizhbalah that is more to the point,don't you think? Good job by our security services and the IDF. As someone here said,we can add it to our armory. Conversely funny by the ship owners to deny THEY DIDN'T KNOW?INthis day and age where most ships are stopped inspected scrutinized? I think I'll have a beer on that LIE and laugh my head off.

They could have been going to Syria military forces. Israel has a habit of jumping to conclusions to serve its own interests. Israel gets to sell its weapon systems all over the world. Israel thinks its fine to defend Israel with weapsons of mass destruction but other countries in the Middle East don't get to defend themselves against the aggressive acts of Israel. I hope for every ship Israel seizes 10 ships of ammunition gets through to any entity fighting Israel aggression.

Agreed 100%. Another crime for which Israel must stand trial at The Hague: Piracy on the high seas. Guilty parties used to hang for that!

must examine everything with discriminative scrutiny, Iran is preparing & supplying it's proxies for an impending war

Change the name of the ship to "Goldstone, Irvin."

William, I owe you an apology. I misunderstood your post. Thanks Sarah for your correction.

Read the resolution again. "(i) Withdrawal of Israel armed forces from territories occupied in the recent conflict;" Gaza,Sinai,West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights were occupied at the end of the Six Day War. Israel only fulfilled two of these objectives being the Sinai and Gaza strip. The partition is long gone and null. The only thing that can possibly apply from it is Jerusalem being an international city(but neither Israelis or Palestinians are up to that challenge).

"Muslim venomous propaganda" Wow, so that's what you call it when someone criticizes Israel? I guess that means when an Israeli criticizes Palestinians or Lebanese or Iranians, it should be referred to as "Jewish venomous propaganda". See, it doesn't sound so nice when it's redirected at a different audience.

UNSC 1701 did *NOT* end the conflict. At best, you might say it was ISRAEL compliance with 1701, because as any moron can tell Hezbollah complied with NOTHING. Do not take credit due Israel and give it to those disgusting pigs in NY. The UN and their declarations accomplish nothing. Unless you consider legitimizing terrorist groups and murder of civilians. The UN is the worthless vile and wretched hive of scum and villainy that Mos Eisley was modeled on.

Do you need a tattoo on your head??? **ISRAEL DOES NOT THREATEN OTHER NATIONS WITH ANNIHILATION** Iran does so on a regular basis. All "Palestinian" propaganda is based on a non-Israel world. Children are taught that Israel is illegitimate. Hamas, Hezb, Fatah, etc. are -FOUNDED- on the concept of destroying of Israel. Even Arab civilians rejoice when Israelis are murdered. THESE ARE NOT THE SAME AS ISRAEL. Either figure it out, or get a tattoo, or end your own misery one way or another.
