1. Any aid for Turkish earthquake victims?
Cynic ,   USA   (11.02.11)
2. Total hypocricy by the CCR
Cynic ,   USA   (11.02.11)
Didn't hear any condemnation last week when Palis were firing rockets deliberately at civilian populaton. I guess they were to busy planning the 'terrorist loving" flotilla.
3. Missguided People
Mike ,   Hadera Israel   (11.02.11)
It is very sorry that many people have such a low opinion of Israel, Israel only blockaded Gaza after rockets were fired indiscriminately into Israel, If after Israels withdrawal from Gaza the Gazans had acted responsibly and opened dialog, trade, etc as any civilized nation would have then we would not be in the mess that we are now, Israel only wants to live in peace with its neighbors, Just give the jewish nation (I am not jewish) a few square Km,s to call the state of Israel, you Muslem guys can have the rest and the wars are over. Think about it, how much land does the Jewish state of Israel want compared to its Muslem Neighbors? My 2c.
4. FLOTILLAS MANIACS !!
mArk ,   t.A. israel   (11.02.11)
THESE PEOPLE ARE MANIACS WHO WANT TO BECOME FAMOUS !!LET S PUT THEM IN JAIL ONCE THEY ARE IN ISRAELI TERRITORIAL WATERSANDNOT ONTHE INTERNATIONAL WATERS SO NOBODY WILL ACCUSE US OF PIRATERY !!
5. more floptilla? how about going to syria or somalia?
rachel ,   usa   (11.02.11)
too dangerous , we would get killed you say?
6. Left wing nuts
Steve ,   USA   (11.02.11)
Stop the ships, weld the rudders in place and let them circle in the Med till rescued by the UN or the Turkish Navy.
7. Aid? Puh-lease!
Joe ,   Fort Lauderdale, USA   (11.02.11)
And we're supposed to buy in to the "humanitarian aid" propaganda BS? If they were bringing humanitarian aid, it doesn't require all the "activists." If you really want to bring humanitarian aid to people who vow the destruction of Israel, get those losers off the damn boat and pack it with aid. These loser are just hoping Israel is provoked into a confrontation against this group of idiots whose list of guests includes Americans and Canadians. It's a mere public relations stunt which the world media just can't wait to exploit.
8. When will this idiocy end?
Vlad   (11.02.11)
9. Deluded Fools
emanon ,   USA   (11.02.11)
10. What a laugh
Ivan ,   South Africa   (11.02.11)
Sailing to Gaza with only $30,000 aid these guys must be real cheapies.
11. Passive Resistance? Wasted Effort
Israeli 2   (11.02.11)
Make a statement! Throw millions of dollars away. For nothing. You will be kindly asked to abort your mission and go back home. You guys never learn...do you?
12. Give it up!
David ,   USA   (11.02.11)
If war is what the world wants perhaps Israel should oblige. Lift the blockade and afterwards when the first rocket lands on Israeli soil, respond as if these ships were carrying weapons. After all, who knows. No blockade, no inspection, so the worst must be assumed. When first rocket falls, wipe gaza from the map and announce to the world that it would not have happened if the inspections were allowed to continue. Give them what they want.
13. maybe they'll get lost in the bermuda triangle
yevgeny ,   bukovina   (11.02.11)
and find atlantis, which has more historical truth to its existence than "palestine" lol
14. yay! support terror!
dixie ,   South, Israel   (11.02.11)
I was ever-so cheered to hear that these lovely people support terrorism, bombing Israeli civilian populations, using their own population as human shields by setting up their missile launchers next to homes, schools, and hospitals.
15. Erdogan might just get the showdown he is desperate for
zionist forever   (11.02.11)
Erdogan has ordered the Turkish navy to fire on any Israeli ships trying to stop the flotillas. So who knows he might just get his chance to start the war he has been so desperate for which he hopes to come out of as an international hero. It might be interesting to see Turkish warships trying to be submarines.
16. Jerks !
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (11.02.11)
Take them prisoner and Parade them on the streets of Israel, pull their pants down and wipe their butts publicly. Arn.Sweden.
17. Stop them and arrest all on board!
Reuven   (11.02.11)
They're terrorist supporters.
18. Just some more pests.
Pasquinel ,   Canada   (11.02.11)
Swat....done.
19. the idiots are back
fad egypt   (11.02.11)
here we go again , the stupid activists are back again , and why ??!! because the so called blockade in gaza , there is no a blockade in gaza , there is a welfare in gaza , and the people are living their lives better than the egyptians in egypt !!!! although they are living under hamas rule but thanks to israel daily assistance instead of going to gaza , these idiots should go to syria to show solidarity with the syrians who everyday are butchered by el assad shame on these people !!!! shalom and G-D bless Israel
20. #1 is right....
Malone ,   Hfx   (11.02.11)
Aid is needed right there in Turkey...the fat pals in gaza need for nothing..just their lust for world sympathy from the gullible,naive lefties...make me sick:(
21. Disable it when it reaches Israeli waters.
Josh   (11.02.11)
If it doesn't follow customs laws, disable it and set it adrift. Let them know ahead of time this is what will happen thus saving face in the international community. No one should die trying to board it. You will just make internet videos if you do. Unless the whole staging of the event is to further make money from fearful nations in some war on flotilla campaigns and media highlights bs.
22. NAughty Children
Ruben Jacobi ,   UK   (11.02.11)
I think that the Israeli navy should stop them and be taken to an Israeli court and sentenced to each writing 100,000 lines, saying Hamas must stop all missiles from Gaza jnto Israel forever, this may keep them from the mischeive they are doing for sometime.
23. New flotilla:
Joe ,   uk   (11.02.11)
does gaza need help people dont look thin they are not starving give all the aid to Turkish earthquake victims or to people in africa israel navy should tangle the boats propellers with nets and pull them
24. Gaza Port????
Adam ,   NYC   (11.02.11)
Where does the flotila expect to dock, since when does Gaza have a port??
25. #6 - Perfect
Ann ,   Canada   (11.02.11)
The whole world would split a gut laughing
26. Arrest them when they return to the US
Jordan Ariel ,   Philadelphia USA   (11.02.11)
All Americans on board should be Arrested for providing assistance to a terrorist entity. And not a comfy American Jail either.
27. Rather Paltry Amount of Goods
emanon ,   USA   (11.02.11)
Humanitarian aid worth only $30,000? That's a pretty low value of aid for an entire ship to carry. That will go to the pockets of one, maybe two, hamas officials and that's the end of it.
28. maybe they want to go and live in Gaza for a few weeks
Jennifer ,   Jerusalem Israel   (11.02.11)
Then come and stay in Israel...that may set them straight.
29. NO MENTION OF TURKISH NAVY ESCORT
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (11.02.11)
Anone have any old fashioned SEAMINES
30. Flotilla
Gavin ,   Kadima IsRael   (11.02.11)
I think that the punishment should fit the crime. These so called activists should have a compound built for them in Southern Israel where they should be sentenced to spend some time. Did I forget to mention, that this compound should not have any bomb shelters!
