91. To: Charlie Murphy at No. 73
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.31.10)
Glorious response! And so perfectly on target! You have quite made my day ..... thank you. The idiot has had it coming for quite some time.
92. To: No. 74
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.31.10)
Excuse me, did you say "aid workers?" Aid workers do not attack violently and certainly do not transport weapons. These so-called "aid workers" did both. Can't wait until they open all the containers and cargo and see all the illegal contraband attempted to be smuggled into Gaza in contravention of international law. You'll be singing a different tune, then. Good. I'm getting pretty sick of "Matty Groves." We all are.
93. tje ship "inquiry"
Ezra   (05.31.10)
I know how to find out about the whole "true" story as the world would like to hear it: Appoint "judge"Goldstone to do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
94. VERY bad if this happen in Int. Waters, not very smart
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, Texas   (05.31.10)
If ships were still in Int. Waters then when IDF soldiers landed on deck they entered another country, since piracy is a crime then any killings by IDF would be murder under Int. and Maritime laws, they would be tried in the country the ship was flagged under or ICC. The blockade is important to removing Hamas from power and ships had to be stopped but doing this in Int. Waters was VERY stupid.
95. Good for the IDF
Ana ,   Spain   (05.31.10)
It is obvious, once more, that the those people are terrorists supporting Hamas. Enough is enough. Next time they plan to go in support of terrorists, they will give it second thoughts.
96. I am not in shock for the death of terrorists
Ana ,   Spain   (05.31.10)
Those countries should be in shock at the fact that they are exporting terrorism against Israel.
97. The spanish people is very fair ?
MIMI ,   LONDON   (05.31.10)
with history of inkvizition, with the regime of franco ..
98. arrogant or ignorant
grandestgrandma ,   brooklyn, NY USA   (05.31.10)
really now do you have an idea what Israel pumps into the Palestinians - that is what shock me and you outside creeps still condemn a sovereign nation that is defending itself you must have an ancestor of one of the inquisitors that murdered so many Jews in Spain shame on you
99. Not even the iranian regime would use live ammo on its own
Albert ,   US   (05.31.10)
There were numerous protests in iran and yes lots were beaten and imprisoned and even raped. But that was it,how many got killed??? Certainly not 15 in one day and certainly not foreign reporters or peace activists.
100. EU Support
JUDAH THE LION   (05.31.10)
for the Palestinians because the EU wants the arab investments as Europe are in deep s..t and most important OIL OIL OIL OIL. Sky TV wants arab advertisements like QATAR AIRWAYS and others. EU are like BUDANAS
101. I am in shock, and I am not even a leftist.
noa ,   israel   (05.31.10)
There is a frightening trend in Israel that we think whatever we do is right, and our first reaction is force. This attitude is prevalent in our factories, on our streets and in our politics. If we are so blameless, how come all our decision makers are constantly being indicted? We have some very serious soul-searching to do here.
102. Donkeys / Schengen
consultant ,   Brussels   (05.31.10)
Hello Ms. Baroness, calling for "immediate, sustained and unconditional opening of the crossing for the flow of humanitarian aid, commercial goods and persons to and from Gaza," you forgot the donkeys, explosive and not! Please correct your statement asap. You also forgot to say that the EU is ready to accept Hamas and Gaza into the Schengen agreement.
103. Turkey turning against Israel, West
Bob ,   USA   (05.31.10)
The world is shocked?????!!!!! Oh please, another ridiculous characterization by news hungry journalists. Turkey is responsible for endorsing and leading this incitement Flotilla to Gaza.... to those who have their eyes open. Turkey is turning against the West and Israel, and embracing Iran and radical Islam. Israel must put Turkey "in its place." Israel needs a leader who will stand in front of the cameras and tell the world what it needs to hear....and to unequivocally push back against malicious worldwide virus of growing anti-semitism. Anti-Jewish has become a global blood sport.
104. 74,816,000
Cynic #2   (05.31.10)
Clever Israel has added the above number to its growing list of haters. Breaking a new world record indeed.
105. Who has ever heard of a 'humanitarian' org armed with knives
Lee ,   Manchester   (05.31.10)
axes, and sharpened rods. The world is upside down. White is black, black is white, right is wrong and wrong is right. Islam manages to poison EVERYTHING. Even if the I.D.F. find tonnes of explosives aboard these ships it will still be Israel's fault - simply because Israel exists and the world doesn't like the Jews able to DEFEND themselves. If i could live in Israel i would want to protect it. Israel cannot win this war of prpaoganda either way but it can carry on DEFENDING it's own borders, and WIN this war MILITARILY and unfortunatly will HAVE TO do this. Show them absolutely NO MERCY!
106. # 55 Shame and compassion
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (05.31.10)
Peter ! Shame and compassion like your countriemen,who refuse to admit to this very day their part in the extermination of the Jews of Europe,2 thirds of the SS were Austrians,so was, the vagabound who was responsible for the death of 50 Million people,Peter ! you should be very proud.
107. kaddish...for all the dead at sea....
maura ,   italy   (05.31.10)
Who loses one life...and we lost more than one... Kaddish. And prayers for all the wounded and affected... But also one doubt: how is it that these deaths at sea, in international waters, are so well known and reacted to in real time, which does not normally happen with the over 13.000 deaths of migrants and potential asylum seekers near Italian and European coasts? Are activists (lives and deaths) more relevant than migrants and asylum seekers? For whom? Might we all find soon more peaceful ways to coexist on this only one earth... שלום, السلام, peace, pace.... Maura
108. The world is shocked that Jews defend themselves?
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (05.31.10)
Madame Ashton, piss off and return to your little rainy kingdom island. And please contemplate British imperialism and British colonial possesions in Gibraltar, Akrotiri & Dhekelia, Ascension Island, Saint Helena, Tristan da Cunha, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, British Antarctic Territory, Falkland Islands, Pitcairn Islands, British Indian Ocean Territory, Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, Montserrat, Anguilla, Turk and Caicos Islands and Bermuda. You have colonial possessions in basically every continent. Is this a sign of British peace loving inclination towards the world?
109. Why not Blame the "Activists"?
WillH ,   Oregon, US   (05.31.10)
Why is it that the world in general never blames those who do evil? Why does it blame those who try to stop them? This was deliberate and calculated on the part of various terror groups, even to the point of putting children in jeopardy and the world media is going right along with it. All for hatred of Israel. A volcano blocking EU airtraffic wasn't enough to get the EU's attention when the UK attacked Israeli travel on April 14. What will the Lord do next to protect His people, I wonder?
110. #104 better to be hated than be dead
eporue ,   europe   (05.31.10)
you can hate as much as you like and if this is the price for Jews to survive so be it, and if a few or more of you haters need to die for Jewish survival, so be it. look under your mattress at night, a Jew may be hiding there waiting for you to make a wrong move, be warned!
111. The world was in shock?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.31.10)
Really? Truly? So, events like the Holocaust did not shock the world. The massacre of over five million Congolese does not shock the world. The massacre of nearly 50,000 Christians and Animists in the Sudan does not shock the world. The massacre of over 10,000 Christians in Banda Ace does not shock the world. The massacre of tens of thousands of Kurds in Turkey does not shock the world. The massacre of tens of thousands of Kurds, Baha'i and Zoroastrians in Iran does not shock the world. The death of 15 violent terrorist supporters shocks the world. That's kind of why I really don't pay much attention to the world. Neither should Israel.
112. yes sir, immediately. right after england completes repot on
ralph   (05.31.10)
how it deals with falklands, irish, spain its basques, france, germany, irish, blgium (its congo history whitewashed to date), all arab countries its black slave trade, russia and china re: their minorities, then we'll take a look at how we responded to nazi arabs and their sympathizers.
113. OY #104!!!
Michael Bovo ,   Bhaktapur Nepal   (06.01.10)
Stop projecting YOUR hate on others motives. And as a non Zionist Jew I resent simplistic notion that others have to die for my survival. Speak for yourself only and keep your masada death wishes to yourself. Zionism is the greatest fraud placed on Jewry. And it is Israel and you that make anti semitism a good idea again. Creating anti semitism is the only thing Israel is good at these days
