1. Insist that Turkish testimony on the lands to be given Kurds

be included with testimony about lands such as gaza that the hamass terrorists claim. Nine turkish terrorists were killed on that ship but how many Kurdish freedom fighters died at the hands of the Turks. Make this an all enveloping investigation, not just a crucifixion of IDF soldiers who did not expect a violent reception when boarding a "peace" ship.
2. Bring on the inquiry, there is damning evidence
Berl ,   formerly of Seattle   (06.11.10)
against the Obama White House, One of the most grievous pieces of information being exposed is that at least 3 members of the Obama administration were in on the organization and promotion of this flotilla. A top adviser to President Obama John O. Brennan, deputy national security adviser for homeland security and counterterrorism is the contact person within the White House for communications with the Free Gaza Movement over plans to challenge Israel's blockade of the terrorist Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip The allegation raises the bizarre possibility that the Free Gaza Movement's flotilla action in the Mediterranean was being coordinated with the White House, something that would align with a shift in U.S. policy toward Israel being debated within the Obama administration Beyond that, it is illegal according to American law. The U.S. Neutrality Act (18 U.S.C. 960) forbids such things. The Act states: "Whoever, within the United States, knowingly begins or sets on foot or provides or prepares a means for or furnishes the money for, or takes part in, any military or naval expedition or enterprise to be carried on from thence against the territory or dominion of any foreign prince or state, or of any colony, district, or people with whom the United States is at peace, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both." So lets reveal the truth here
3. I wonder if Justice Tirkel
Yossi. D. ,   Israel   (06.11.10)
I wonder if Justice Tirkel will give up his sacred schlafstunde while heading the Committee…
4. Shrewd move - use Goldstone
Jonny ,   SA   (06.11.10)
It would be a shrewd move to ask Goldstone to conduct the enquiry. Only factual evidence to be considered. Plenty of Pgotographs and communications.
5. it depends on whether he asked or he was asked to do it

6. #2 Guilty as charged
Paul ,   Florida   (06.11.10)
Hey Berl, former american. We are already guilty of aiding and abetting Israel's military adventures.
