are you ready to exchange your son for Gilad Shalit? Yes? do it, and then lift the blockade....

NO NO, Oh Hell No ! don't you dare lift any blockade. We don't want to be subject to anymore of their darkness than we already have. Crush this foolishness with a backbone

this artical reminds me of the the time not so long ago when busses and coffee shops were being blown up and some clown was running around shouting its not fatah its hamas and that the dead were in fact victims of peace herzog are you the new clown on the block?

Otherwise, these incidents will be repeated in other ways .

get rid off hamas and it's ilk then you can lift the siege

Herzog was a supporter of the ethnic cleansing of Gush Katif, allowing Hamas to kidnap Gilad Shalit and shoot rockets against Israeli children. Later, Herzog was in the corrupt Olmert government with the Cast Lead operation, where the government failed to release Shalit or overthrow Hamas and was still branded a war criminal. Considering his history of being wrong, why doesn't Herzog do us all a favor and quit politics.

then a chance, your government will agree on a swap... dont you see, how "important" that blockade is for them... its not for gilad, and it never was... and it will never been lifted for him... its a "fake offer", to make gilad the scapegoat for it. the alleged blockade-lift only comes with deals, hamas would never ever agree on... the blockade will be lifted, due to international intervention, and then there is a chance for gilad, TOO...

wake up & smell the coffee. there is no occupation of gaza, that is why terror reigns & ppl don't have money except whixh is donated by iran. you must admit that when israel did occupy gaza there was no hunger & plenty of jobs. why not complain to your egyptian brothers who are killing your ool in gaza?

the Turkish Navy from attempting to break the blockade of Gaza. Which since the events of last Monday has become a matter of national honour for Turkey.

You are so wrong. If the blockade is lifted the terror will begin all over again. We will have renewed suicide bombings all over Israel. Hamas will not release Shailt who is their only bargaining chip. First Hamas must agree to put down their armed resistance towards Israel. Second, Hamas has to accept Israel's right to live peace as the Jewish homeland. Over the years Israel has made all the consessions & it hasnt got us anywhere near peace. The blockade must continue & we must continue building the security wall. Herzog is WRONG.

Herzog & Braverman, upside down & backwards logic, these guys don't have a clue. Anything they suggest, do the opposite. If anything, we should impose an even tighter set of restrictions on Hamas, and for every attempt to break the blockade, increase sanctions & reduce the amount of aid that goes to Gaza. We have to demonstrate that attempts at breaking the blockade are not a paying proposition or there will be no end to attempts. If we allow an end to the blockade, Gaza will fill up with missiles & Scuds from Syria & Iran - we will allow another situation like S. Lebanon.

Details on the group that boarded the ship, separately....which city ? it is al - Qaeda terrorist for sure sponsored by TURKEY ! We all need not guess about the identity of the group. It is an OPEN SECRET ! And of course the Radical organisation is non other than the Turkish Sponsored Movements. as for herzog....YOU PLEASE KEEP THE BOCKADE GOING ! SAVE THE WORLD AND ISRAEL A PROBLEM DILEMA ! CUT THE ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION OF INCRESING THE FLOW OF GOODS ! LIFTING THE BLOCKADE oe incresing the flow of goods is not the solution ! you already BLUNDERED GUSH KATIB ! Benjamin Nethanyahu and Danile Hershowitz is CORRECT !!! Avisay you are an idiot ! Be IT KNOW. dont rely on foreigners ! ban ki moon and his NZ venture is another FROLIC ! dont fall for their frolic ! ISRAEL HAS NOTING TO APOLOGISE FOR BUT ONLY TO STAND HER GROUND AND SMASH THE TERRORIST ISLAMIST AND THE TURKISH RELATIONS HA SGONE SOUR TO THE POINT IT IS THEIR DUTY MAKE PUBLIC APOLOGY TO TURKEY ! YOU DONT LET THES EISLAMIST TO DICTATE TO US JEWS ! AND WHERE IS GILAT SHALIT ?

has a suggestion for us. How nice!

I only hear weak,quisling,fearful politicians with their small and failed plans. Israel has a solution to the Gaza Blockade runner problem ,something they failed to do in January of 2009 DEFEAT Hamas ,Re Take Gaza and the IDF can be waiting at the Gaza port for all Aid ships. Eventually you will have to neutralize Gaza threat, better now than later.

that those Neo Tazi Muslim Terror suppoters will deny the truth. They won't allow facts to disturb their hate propaganda.

What kind of leaders are you? Herzog, go back to papa Herzog's law office. Your papa had guts. You are wetting your pants.

pride and prestige. They weaken israel therefore they should go! Bibi, don't be inlfluenced by those cowards!

"Science and Technology Minister Daniel Hershkowitz (Habayit Hayehudi) said, "We are an independent country and we can investigate ourselves. We don't need elements which are not objective, like the Turks, to investigate us." " Well , Turkey wants and INDEPENDENT investigation , which is more democratic than Israeli investigation.. Turkey doesnt say we will investigate it ourselves.

Second, suppose that there is no occupation in Gaza, but Jerusalem is still under occupation, as you know that those who defend Sderot is not a town of Sderot, but the "IDF", in our case, we have no army, so the resistance movements are responsible for the defense, the issue is not Gaza, but Palestine and Jerusalem as its capital Wake Up and Smell the Tea :)

let them provide for themselves.

Exactly allowed terrorists to get on board of the fake Turkish "humanistic aid" ship. As soon as Erdogan allows Israel to investigate we shall consider cooperation with turkey in the other investigation. Not sooner.

We need to explain to the world our side and the facts. For this we need more spokespeople and information and press officers that can explain in English and other languages. We don’t have to apologize all the time for trying to protect our country and people. We have every right to attempt to prevent the Hamas from smuggling weapons into Gaza. Instead of daily fighting terror, we wait for some terror attack to justify our actions and we bomb some smuggling tunnel on the Gaza-Egyptian Border. That is not fighting terror that is what I call being afraid of world opinion. Any other country in the same situation would be bombing constantly the terrorists. Hit their leadership, their operatives, their funding capabilities, affiliate groups in order to paralyze them and their capabilities. recruit moderate religious leaders to counter their radical Islamic ideology. Show the supply convoys going into Gaza daily, tell what is in these supply convoys. Show the markets in Gaza full of food and other products. We do not know how much of these supplies reach the people, since a lot probably goes to the corrupt Hamas terrorists and their families. Gaza flourishes on smuggling and supplies coming in to Gaza through 1000-1500 tunnels, with Hamas terrorists and criminal elements putting the profits in their pockets, as well money from International Humanitarian Aid and terror funding. Show the world the pictures and explain that corruption and terror flourishes in Gaza. The Hamas government and those in the inner circle don’t care about the common people in Gaza as long as they are stealing all their money from Humanitarian Aid and keeping world opinion focused on Israel. As far as Turkey, we have to direct world opinion from the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict to the Turkish-Kurdish Conflict. The world wakes up everyday and is influenced from what they see in the Media and Internet. The Turks for years have been killing, bombing the Kurds in Western Iraq and East Turkey, over a conflict where the Kurds want an independent state and no country interferes. Direct world opinion to this conflict and maybe the Turks will be so busy they will stop prying into our internal affairs. We do not do enough press interviews on foreign TV stations and government press conferences in English and show the world the videos and pictures we have to back up our actions and show the facts.

More from the useless Left who got Israel into this mess in the first place by their weak, absurd policies which are ridiculed and treated with the contempt they deserve by our enemies. Herzog would wish us next to negotiate with terrorists.

Why should Israel let Gaza import weapons by sea? Why does Israel not demand an end to Arab boycott of trade with Israel. The Gazans voted for the terrorist: Hamas! Why does USA demand an Iranian style government for the West Bank Gaza? Brutal dictators that parade as religious people. What english definition of religious includes car bombs of pizza stores et al?
